Russia, South Korea share points

DHAKA: Russia and South Korea share the points after a 1-1 draw in their opening 2014 World Cup match in Cuiaba on sixth day.

After a drab first half, Russian goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev let Lee Keun-ho's shot to slip through his hands and into the net before substitute Aleksandr Kerzhakov hauled Russia level.

Akinfeev's howler was reminiscent of Robert Green's error for England against the USA in 2010, when Russian manager Fabio Capello was in charge of the England team.
