Sort of. There were several major actions in the Battle of Tskhinvali. The one were are focusing on had the Russians use the road, as you highlighted, and then do a flank, to attack directly from the North, while the Georgians attacked from the South. If you look at the map really closely, you'll notice a break between the shaded area (Georgian held) and Tskhinvali. The Georgians did not have a proper rear guard, thus allowing the Russians to use that thin strip of land for attacking.
The battle developed within Tskhinvali itself, whereas your arrows meet West of Tskhinvali.
And thank you for making me clear that up. I should've stated it much earlier in my posts. (Also, if Right attacks Left, then North = Left and South = Right. Although it really should be a battle engagement).
Currently I'm working on getting the Recon units for both sides in, that should be in my next post.
