both myself and the scorer thought that Suarez scored, hell, they put up a 1 on the scorecard, and then took it away

When I saw Suarez’s face, I knew there was no goal. I thought the linesman raised the flag and kept thinking an offside on Cavani was pretty harsh. It took until the third replay or so before I ended up watching the ball.

Uruguay playing some of the ugliest fútbol that I’ve seen them play in a while. They continue to try to press but they aren’t doing it together, they’re not understanding each other. Also, there is no ball movement in the middle of the field, all long balls. Very ugly. 

as bad as yesterdays game was, we saw almost no flopping at all, and almost everytime someone went down it was because they were legitimately in contact (most of it legal)

then I watch this game and the Eygptians are dropping like flies. The Uruguayans arent much better, At least the ref hasnt bought the bullshit yet.

Russian Snipers? 

Egypt is playing pretty stout defense. But yeah, we need a little more creativity. Need some Godin/Suarez two-man game.

What a shitty half for Uruguay 

This.Is Luis Suarez gonna have to bite a bitch?

That side net shot was ludicrous speed.

Sucks that Salah and Cavani aren’t playing. 

What? Cavani is on the pitch? Could have fooled me. 

A draw here would make the rest of the matches in this group much more interesting.

How did he not get a shot off?

He bit off more than he could chew?

The mental tug of war between Salah, the global kop, all of egypt, nesv, and the egyptian manager, is a fascinating thing to contemplate.

But if egypt get out of here with something, my bracket is fucked, and this group is indeed very interesting.

If Uruguay draws, they have a good shot of getting out with a win/draw against Russia

Wow, what a volley!  Great save.

The longer this goes scoreless, the more likely we are to see Suarez bite someone.

wtf- THREE Urug's players just standing around in the front of the goal, none of them covered.... and none of them get a rebound

There it finally is

Uruguay don't play as the favorites.  Their style and identity are tied into suffering and siege mentality.  They are Diego Simeone personified as a nation.

that was turrble. Hope Egypt beats Russia 

Russia is going to bunker like a mother-fucker and then hope that Uruguay goes for the draw in match 3.

That is why I wish that Uruguay- Russia was the game 2 matchup.

They're going to play defense until winter and then counterattack.

That's the plan against France or Germany.

Russia is going to go full Stalingrad in WWII.

 

Well , fuck. HenryJames said it better.

Great gameplan by Sphinx, but they made like aggy and ran out of time.

Of course this little bitch Wahl does a piece on Iran beating the US.  

Iran would beat us this year as well. They are a superior soccer country to the U.S.

Not sure that I agree.  Both teams have had some shitty matches  over the past few years, but I'd argue our results are better over the past three or so years.  Quick glance at their results back to 2015, and I don't see a single win against a current or decent WC team for Iran.

I think Russia is capable of beating Egypt.  Uruguay should have beat Egypt easy.  They have 1 good player and he's hurt.  So many missed chances by Uruguay and they weren't aggressive.   I expect a 0-0 or 1-0 score when Russia plays Egypt

The UT club team could give the US team a game
