It will be very interesting to see what the authorities do about this game. The test has to be do visiting teams feel safe and they play able to play to their full potential. It is unfair that some teams are giving less than their best because they feel unsafe. I have no problem with home fans creating an atmosphere that may intimidate but getting unto or throwing things unto the pitch should result in severe punishment.
Countries who cannot execute their grounds should not be allowed to play at home and should be placed in qualifying groups where they don't play countries from the same region.
 

What actually happened in this contest?

....I think it's the game where very early on the Russian keeper was hit by a flare from the crowd and was carried off. Objects continued to be thrown and there was a brawl on the pitch after which the referee abandoned the game. Others will have a more accurate summary.
