Russians are still pinching themselves if indeed they are in the quarterfinals and the joke now is that goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev has the "Foot of God".
Russia face Croatia tomorrow thanks to Ankifeev’s winning left-foot save against Spain's Iago Aspas.
The feat has drawn comparisons to the "Hand of God" goal football legend Diego Maradona scored against England in 1986.
Error-prone Akinfeev should enjoy the joke while it lasts, anyway.
