They are 10th in the World by FIFA Rankings Shocked
 
Not sure how they wrangled into that position after finishing 5th in South America with a goal difference of +1  Confused
 
However I'm delighted to see them qualify after a soon-to-be 36 year wait. Hon Peru Clap

Three candidates reach the final voting for the Mascot for Russia 2018.

Wolf (volk), Cat (kot) and Tiger (tiger).  As shown the first two professions are athletes and the tiger's profession is cosmonaut.

Is it me or could the Wolfs thumbs up easily be mistaken for giving the middle finger there LOL LOL LOL Maybe it's Putins way of telling a lot of countries to go feck themselves
