Russia coach Leonid Slutsky is backing his team's fans to behave themselves in Wednesday's game against Slovakia and avoid his side being expelled from the European Championship. ''We are sure (our fans) will not do the same, they will not give any reasons to disqualify our team,'' Slutsky said through an interpreter Tuesday, shortly after UEFA said Russia will be sent home if there is any repeat of the violence witnessed in Saturday's game against England. UEFA's ruling came after Russia fans attacked England supporters at the Stade Velodrome in Marseille following a 1-1 draw that had been overshadowed by three days of clashes.
