Uruguay v Costa Rica (Group D) Saturday 14th June 2014

[goldenecitrone]

Wow. I wasn't expecting the Costa Rican Inquisition. Neither were the Uruguayans by the looks of things.

 

[binka]

I thought Costa Rica were supposed to be a pushover. Now they are beating the top seeds in our group.

rather costa rica get 3 points than uruguay. yeah costa rica look better than expected but uruguay look worse too!

 

[Fez909]

This world cup is amazing

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Maybe they'll win 4-1 just to vex marty21 further

 

[marty21]

Should have had 4-1 Costa Rica

 

[Badgers]

Best first touch of the tournament

 

[Fez909]

Timing!

 

[Lo Siento.]

This world cup is amazing

barely a bad game so far.

 

[marty21]

Maybe they'll win 4-1 just to vex marty21 further

that would have been huge odds before the match

Should have had 4-1 Costa Rica

I did wonder...

 

[Voley]

Shit! I thought Costa Rica were meant to be our easier game in this group.

 

[Lo Siento.]

Don't think Wenger needs to sign a striker.

Europe's joint top goalscorer isn't playing for Uruguay tonight.

 

[binka]

Should have had 4-1 Costa Rica

should have had it in a double with 5-1 netherlands and you could have bought costa rica

 

[Badgers]

A stroll for Uruguay I reckon - then I reckoned Spain would beat the Dutch

Put down the little biro and walk away from the betting shop.

That Campbell is a great player - the Arse should get him back for next season

 

[marty21]

Put down the little biro and walk away from the betting shop.

but I wuv those ickle pens

 

[Lord Camomile]

I do think this Costa Rican defence is pretty questionable though. No guarantee we can do anything about it, but if our front line has one of its better games and puts them under some pressure I reckon we could get a few. A win, at least.

I don't believing in tempting fate, I don't...

 

[Badgers]

Two yellow cards for Uruguay now

Three yellow cards and no points

Europe's joint top goalscorer isn't playing for Uruguay tonight.

and his first game back after knee surgery is going to be against england. how many goals did he get against cahill last seaon btw?

Who? But yeah, agree about the knee surgery. Won't be at full fitness by any means.

 

[mwgdrwg]

As much as I hate to say it, England should have no trouble at all getting out of this group now.

 

[Lo Siento.]

Usually you'd be pretty pleased if your opposition decided to start someone who had a knee op 3 weeks ago. Suarez though, not so much...

 

[Dr. Furface]

Red card c'mon!

 

[binka]

gary cahill. england and chelsea defender. don't remember him putting anything past joe hart either. in fact did he turn up in any of the big games?

 

[Badgers]

Three yellow cards and no points

Three yellows, one straight red and nil points.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

What an idiot!

 

[Lo Siento.]

Brilliant, Uruguay totally losing it

 

[goldenecitrone]

Bye Bye Maxi Pereira. All gone pear-shaped for Uruguay, big time.

 

[wiskey]

Ouch
