Match Recap
Aleksandr Golovin was unplayable in Vladivostok, and Russia rode his brace to a comfortable 2-0 win over Iran in this Friendlies clash. He opened the scoring in the 21st minute, then doubled it 15 minutes later, and from there Iran never found an answer. Golovin's double moves him into the league's top ten scorers, sitting just behind M. Osmajić, who leads the chart on 5 goals, and it's exactly the kind of form that will have Russia's coaching staff smiling ahead of tougher tests. Iran, by contrast, struggled to create anything meaningful once they fell two goals behind, and the gulf in sharpness between the sides was obvious for long stretches of the second half. This was Golovin's stage from start to finish, a reminder of what he can do when given space to run at defenders. Two goals, one player, one dominant display, catch both of Golovin's strikes in the highlights below and see exactly how he tore Iran apart.
