Former England manager Fabio Capello has stressed his commitment to Russia's World Cup campaign and has no knowledge of any interest from Chelsea.

Stir

Capello caused a stir when Michael O'Neill's side visited Moscow when he appeared to treat victory as a formality prior to the match. A 2-0 win duly followed but his tone was more respectful on Thursday. "They are a strong team and play a really combative game," he said. "They are dangerous from set-pieces. It is not an easy game but I have confidence in my team. "We have Portugal and Israel to come but I am focused on this game. Every game is difficult."
