                  Withdraws from Euros
Zhirkov will no longer play a part in Euro 2020 after suffering a thigh injury in Russia's first match of the tournament.
                  ANALYSIS
At 37 years old, Zhirkov was already a surprise inclusion in the squad and then he started Russia's first match at left-back. With Zhirkov no longer being in the squad, Vyacheslav Karavaev is the projected left-back for Russia's next two group matches.
