World Cup: R16: Uruguay vs. Portugal, 6/30/2018

[JaymzB]

The notion that two people born a short time apart in Salto- population 104,000 in the 2011 census- can both become very good footballers is really blowing ITV's minds.

Nobody tell them about Örnsköldsvik and hockey players.

 

[Halladay]

That touch by Suarez with his chest was amazing.

 

[Blender]

His arm didn't even get close to your head Suarez.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

sneaky dirty

 

[Asiantuntija]

Cavani is the only alpha on the pitch

Ronaldo will score sooner or later

 

[Cassano]

Ronaldo will score sooner or later

Will he be carried by Quaresma and Eder when in trouble again?

 

[Cassano]

Guedes has been terrible this tournament.

 

[Shrimper]

Ronaldo is trying to do too much on his own, needs to pass it at times.

 

[S E P H]

Like he is at PSG, Cavani doing nothing except getting wonderful balls from teammates. He’s like a more consistent version of Morata.

 

[Evilo]

Ronaldo will score sooner or later

I hope for your sake.

As usual, a total rubbish post. Not understanding at all at a player's qualities nor at the construction of the goal he just saw.

Your definition of 'nothing' is unconventional, I think.

 

[Evilo]

Cavani as usual looks like the most determined player in football. He just is a monster of will.

 

[Blender]

30 minutes in, and the amount of diving in this game is pretty disgusting already.

 

[les Habs]

How come Caceres never played that well for Barca? Probably Messi's fault.

Eh, can he do it on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke?

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Obvious foul.

 

[TP]

Why can't Ronaldo wear shorts that fit?

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

It's an odd thing to say given they won the Euro and thus fulfilled a destiny that previous Portuguese teams always fell short of..but it is a bit unlucky for Portugal that the peak of their greatest ever player has not coincided with the peak years of any of their other great players. Imagine how they would play if there were a peak Figo and Rui Costa to play alongside a peak Cristiano Ronaldo. Would actually be a good side to watch rather than the one-dimensional bores they've been the last couple of years.

 

[les Habs]

He didn't hike up his shorts enough.

You forgot the rain.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Sporting want 40 million for Carvalho? Psh.

Running in a straight line is world class qualities? U12 kids have enough intelligence to make those same type of plays in youth games. Portugal was way too open that Greenland’s national team could have scored that, wonderful ball from the biter to survey the situation.

Your definition of 'nothing' is unconventional, I think.

My apologies, he ran which I admit is classified as “something”.

 

[Theokritos]

Like he is at PSG, Cavani doing nothing except getting wonderful balls from teammates.

Except delivering wonderful balls himself (see the unbelievable pass on Suarez before the goal). And backchecking like a Selke candidate. And ...

But whatever.

 

[les Habs]

Uruguay's pressing...
