CURITIBA Brazil (Reuters) - Fabio Capello will stay on as Russia coach until they host the 2018 World Cup if he is still wanted after seeing his team fail to make it past the first round in Brazil.

Playing at their first World Cup since 2002, Russia went home without a win after Algeria held them to a 1-1 draw on Thursday and advanced at their expense.
