Loskov in line to replace Mostovoi
Russia have been rocked on the eve of their vital Group A clash with hosts Portugal by the sending home of key midfielder Aleksandr Mostovoi.
The 35-year-old Celta Vigo star was withdrawn from the squad by furious boss Georgi Yartsev over comments allegedly made to a Spanish radio station claiming his side’s defeat by Spain was the result of over-training.
