Worst case scenario, it'll be nothing more than free BTC publicity. But if this approach towards Bitcoin payments ends up being succesful, it could be the trigger needed to start the adoption phase in Russia. And that's when we might see an effect in the price, otherwise, don't expect to see any major movements on the market.

In a big event like the World Cup, there are fans from all over the world to watch the game!
Russia is also an active developing digital cryptocurrency country! BTC pays hotel fee, reduce the trouble of exchange money! Let people experience the convenience of BTC!

We don't know if this measure will make any effect on the price of bitcoin but it's a measure that will favor its adoption , I think this is more important that its price
It won't effect the price at all, but this is great news in the sense it can provide good publicity on a grand state. Hopefully from all this commotion Bitcoin can gain some more credibility Smiley.

I think this is great news. This will not change anything for now, but it is a step forward in the right direction and will help in long-term prospective.

How can it be possible , if bitcoin is not legit as a currency in Russia ? You can't buy anything officialy with btc there , and I don't think it will change on a FIFA World Cup period . Probably somewhere it will be possible to pay using btc , but it will be illegal and risky , because law will not protect you in case of fraud .
