Russia beat Egypt 3-1 in their Group A encounter on Tuesday. The World Cup hosts now have six points from two games and have scored eight goals in the process. Although not mathematically assured, Russia are almost certain to qualify for the round of 16.

"We won't be looking for a draw in the match against Uruguay," Kutepov said.

Egypt striker Mohamed Salah made his first appearance at the World Cup and converted a penalty, awarded following consultation with the video assistant referee system.

"There is no tragedy in penalty after a video replay. There are problems in every game... Was there a sense that Salah had played not to his full ability? Then, I don't see any reason to go onto the pitch if you can't play to your full ability," Kutepov added.

The 2018 FIFA World Cup kicked off on June 14 and will continue until July 15, with the matches set to be played in 11 cities across Russia.
