Russia World Cup 18

[Oh Buoy]

KO's have been boss so far. 

[Trumo]

Thank fuck for that. Can't stand Portugal. An abundance of talent shoehorned into a Shitcoat-like ethos of preening egotism, doing-the-bare-minimum tactics and shithouse antics. They won't be missed.

 

Two cracking goals by Cavani, and some typically diligent and tactically intelligent defending by the Uruguayans. If they actually ended up winning the thing, I'd love to see coach Tabarez do this in the middle of the Luzhniki:

I think Uruguay & Portugal are as bad as each other tactically & shithouse-y , but Uruguay have two world class attackers to Portugal's one. Love Luis, but would be disappointed to see another negative team win a major international trophy after Portugal in the Euros.

[Denny Crane]

Just what I expected from Uruguay. Fucking warriors that mob but have a couple of match-winners.

No Ronaldo. No Pepe. No contest.

[Greycellgreen]

Delighted those twats are out. Looking forward to months of Ronaldo to United shite before he signs a trillion dollar deal at Real.

Don't get me wrong JS I dislike Portugal intensely on a personal level & am really pleased that Uruguay won , but when I look at Godin / Gimenez , a decent youthful midfield & Suarez/Cavani i  think the attitude of ' just doing enough ' is disappointing from them. Once Cavani scored they went more & more defensive until they conceded , but when they needed a goal it took them about two minutes to find one.

I'd love to see them win it.

[Grinch]

I'd love to see Suarez win it. A 90th minute handball goal would be delightful.

[ZonkoVille77]

Bye bye cunt chops

[cloggypop]

Bit disappointed that Suarez didn't bite Ronaldo's face off to be honest.

[lifetime fan]

I'd love to see Suarez win it. A 90th minute handball goal would be delightful.

 

Considering I have them in the sweepstake on here I’d be made up to see Uruguay win it.

[Ne Moe Imya]

Cavani telling the press he has a hamstring injury.

 

I think you can wave goodbye to Uruguay's chances to win it all if it's serious enough for him to miss a couple of games.

[Jairzinho]

Their chances weren't great anyway.

[Denny Crane]

That Cavani is made of steel. Wouldn't be surprised if he plays some part against France. I doubt there are many outfield players who play League and European football plus internationals who have a better injury record.

He'd better be, Denny , I have a tenner on him as top scorer.

love Luis

 

Down hold ankls, win the ball back jump up

 

Diabolical intent

Ha ha diabolical intent. That brings back memories of the Suarez thread in world cup 14. Pictures of him being responsible for the Malaysian airlines disappearance etc. Very funny.

[Tony Moanero]

The best footy kit has been knocked out of the World Cup. Absolutely fuming.

Nigeria went out in the group stages, mate.

[therevivalist]

Uraguay a great team playing good, old traditional but effective football. But I'm afraid they have little chance against the pace and power of France. 

[Jairzinho]

I think they have half a chance if Godin snaps Mbappe in two within a few minutes of the game.

[El Rojo]

Come on Uruguay. My only remaining pre-tournament wager.

 

Serious footballing power for a country of 4 million people.

Uruguay still in it.

By not bothering to defend like professional footballers, Argentina made France look a lot better than they are.
