Lovely finish to the goal and the pass to him wasn't half bad
Ghana must hate Uruguay now. A real bogie team
What a great goal by Uruguay for 2-0. De Arrascaeta again. Suarez with the assist.
Lovely goal
Keeper awful
Good finish. Ghana on the ropes
2-0 Uruguay. Suarez involved again.
Ronaldo with the assist
I had to look I was in the correct forum with all these theories 🤣
All jokes aside I would not be a manager to tell Ronaldo to sit a game out in the world cup. I think this about Suarez and Ghana is really getting old its like if we still talk about Henry if we are to play France!!! O wait 😋
South Korea level now as well.
Suarez heavily involved in Uruguay's lead goal.
Uruguay lead. Suarez involved.
Amartey and Seidu awful.
South Korea equaliser.
Penalty all day long. don't know how the ref didn't book saurez. Missed in any case
History repeats itself. Wasn't Ayew in the squad in 2010? Cawley is a dreadful commentator.
Terrible penalty and perhaps justice served
Justice done. Awful penalty though, keeper did his part.
Bottled that penalty
Surely its offside before the penalty, the Ghana player was offside and got a touch on the ball? 🤔
Ah no, the Ghana player has dived big-time.
Possible penalty for Ghana against Uruguay. Ref has gone to the screen.
Looks a pen to me for Ghana.
Don't know how Alan Cawley is unsure on that pen. Stonewall imo.
Sometimes it's the stuff you mentioned earlier and sometimes it's more simple. Certainly some people are supporting or hating England for political reasons.
I hate Clare hurling for no reason other than proximity and the fact they hate us back just as much.
They have even made Suarez Captain. They are definitely trolling:)
In fairness, most players would have handled the ball.
Horta gives Portugal the early lead. Terrible start for the Koreans. Dalot did well.
Think there's just much of a muchness between himself and Cavani at this stage, both a little past it physically
I was wondering why they were forcing Suarez to apologise for his handball after all these years but of course it was Ghana he committed this particular atrocity against. Uruguay having decided he is no longer the player he was and dropped him for the last match bring him back for this one. Are they trolling?
I'll say Portugal and Uruguay to win 2-1. South Korea really need Son to step up.
Will be some story if Suarez breaks Ghana hearts again. Wonder will there be a few strong tackles going his way. Hoping to see a Valverde screamer at some stage.
Do people really need an abacus and good maths to work out goal difference Tony?
Bruno "goal-stealing" Fernandes dropped to the bench for Portugal, yet Ronaldo selected.
In fact, only one goal scorer has been selected today! Hmm.....
Portugal goal scorers @World Cup 2022
Bruno Fernandes 2
Ronaldo 1
João Félix 1
Leão 1
But it is a question of WHY you get a laugh off it I think. If you are just laughing at how the English can be arrogant and lose the run of themselves that is fairly harmless. But if it is other reasons it is a bit odd IMO.
If there was something similar to McClaren making an eejit of himself when commenting on Iceland v England in 2016 - that would be funny. If they do start loosing the run of themselves and get 'notions' too early.
That clip is still funny even now, the boasting, overconfident talk then - bang, Bubble bursts.
England vs Mayo is a contradiction in reality that would rip a hole in time and space.
Two teams that can't win playing an endless loop of trying to find ways to lose to the other 🤣
