Russia defender Ilya Kupetov has vowed to use rough tactics against Mohamed Salah when his country plays Egypt at the 2018 World Cup.

Salah is recuperating from injury after he dislocated his shoulder while vying for the ball with Real Madrid skipper Sergio Ramos during last month’s Champions League final.

And speaking as the Russians await to tackle the Pharaohs at the competition, Kupetov  said, “Salah’s game doesn’t worry me. How do you stop him? Well, you can do what Sergio Ramos did for example.
