For the fifth time in tournament history, Russia and Spain cross paths in the UEFA Futsal EURO final.

Of the 1996, 1999, 2005 and 2012 fixtures, Russia only emerged victorious in 1999. It took penalties for them to do so. The last time these two teams met at the 2014 semifinals, however, Russia triumphed 4-3 in extra time.

They'll look to do more of the same on Saturday.

What They're Saying

Russia head coach Sergei Skorovich (via UEFA): "It wasn't only difficult for us to get to the final. Spain had really difficult games too. The only match where they more or less controlled everything from start to finish was against Portugal. Even the semifinal against Kazakhstan was not easy for them. As for us, we still have enough emotional energy and our physical condition is good too. Obviously, we will do everything we can to win the final. I think in terms of psychology, we have the advantage. We've played them many times. For the most part the games were really 50-50, however, we always lost in the end. But last time finally we managed to win, so I think the ball is in our court now."

Spain head coach Jose Venancio: "We know that Russia have a great side and they reached the final because they are one of the best teams in the world. It's going to be a very tough final, but also a very beautiful one. Russia have very good players and those players can fill in for the suspended Eder Lima. Lima is an important player because he scores a lot of goals and of course it's good when a team can rely on a player like him; but they have other talented players and I don't think their standard will drop because of that."
