World Cup: Group A: Egypt vs. Uruguay, 6/15/2018

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Egypt will win against KSA but winning against Russia will be extremely difficult.

Egypt put on the effort today but they’re simply not skilled enough without Salah. I want to like Uruguay but how can you like them with a POS like Suarez?

That's very easy... start liking Suarez.

It will be difficult to beat Russia but with Salah they can do it... he'll definitely play then.

I am guilty of confusing this Uruguay with 2014 Uruguay. This Uruguay team is obviously older.

Where is their pace? Besides Gimenez and Torreira, who leads them in 2022?

Add Bentancur and Maxi Gomez to that list.

lol. I missed most of the match, but this was never going to be a match that showed Uruguay's pace. As for youth; they've got Gomez, Nandez (who I like more at the 8 than RW), Bentancur, Valverde (not in this squad) & Torreira all 22 & under; with Arrascaeta having just turned 24 & Pereiro (not in this squad) about to turn 24; at fullback Varela & Laxalt are both 25...though Laxalt didn't start today...Leipzig's Saracchi is just 20 (not in this squad) & in the middle of their defense, Gimenez isn't going anywhere soon (23) & Lemos (not in this squad) is 22 if he can get his career back on track.

Toss in some 20-year-olds & teenagers who impressed with their youth NT, and they should be a difficult opponent in 2022 as well.

Impossible.

The sooner Chomper exits this WC, the better.

And as always nonsense drivel.. kidding of course.

Just got caught up. Feel for Egypt. They played well enough for the draw.

Need more finish.

Missed the game cause of work, have it recorded to watch tonight.

How did Torreira look? excited to see some more of this guy, hopefully in an Arsenal jersey.

He dominated the game completely. You should definitely watch the replay to witness his amazing play.

not a horrible result for Russia to get through at 2

Amazing result for Russia to go through at 2*

I hope this is not sarcasm! You have peaked my interest and excitement, going to be watching him close!

Unreal last 3 mins for the kid, really made the difference

Suarez had an absolutely lackluster game tonight

He hasn't been good in like nine months. Falling off the face of the world like Milan Lucic.
