Awesome match coming up now between England and Uruguay. Or should I say England vs Luis Suarez. Suarez is a top 3 player in the world imo just behind Messi and Ronaldo. This should be a good one.
SUAREZ!!!! 1-0 Uruguay.
HT: 1-0 Uruguay
England are the best average team on the planet right now. Their team is all "solid" players, but not one person with the ability to win games alone like Suarez and Cavani. Rooney maybe a few years back. But they just really aren't that good
Uruguay player knocked out cold on the field with a knee to the temple....I think he has a concussion. He's trying as hard as he can to get back on the pitch.
He played on. First thing he does: very hard tackle on Glen Johnson (cleanly)
ROOOOONEY!!!!
1-1 Tie!!!!!!! Wayne Rooney breaks through!
GOAL! SUAREZ! 2-1
Man....Suarez is a MAN.
Suarez is a ****ing boss.
And LOL @ England
He does favor Bucky though....Quote:

That game was pretty boring. Gotta admit.
Pretty boring is an understatement. That game was awful haha I had to turn it to Andrew Heaney's debut. Iran, Japan, Greece, Nigeria have some boring soccer this year. Those four teams would struggle to score with no goalies.Quote:

I haven't watched every game thinks to moving, but japan-Greece was by far the most boring game I've seen.
Costa Rica!!!! 1-0 after a controversial no-call a couple of minutes earlier, they come out and head one in from close. 44'
HT: 1-0 Costa Rica
FT: 1-0 Costa Rica
Group D Standings:
Costa Rica 6 pts +3
Italy 3 pts 0
Uruguay 3 pts -1
England 0 pts -2
Costa Rica Advances to Group of 16
England eliminated from World Cup
Italy advances with tie/win against Uruguay
Wow Costa Rica was the 28th ranked team. Uruguay #7, Italy #9 and England #10 where the expected 3 fighting for 2 spots. England done and now one of the top two seeds in the pod won't advance. Crazy WC so far.
So if I have this right...
Group A:
Brazil is likely in the round of 16
Mexico is in with a win or tie against Croatia
Croatia is in with a win over Mexico
Cameroon is out
Brazil is out with a loss to Cameroon AND a Croatia win over Mexico by at least one less goal than Brazil's loss to Cameroon.
Group B:
Holland and Chile advanced
Australia and Espana out.
Winner of Dutch and Chileans gets top seed. NED gets top seed with tie.
Group C:
Columbia is in.
Ivory Coast is in with a tie or win against Greece
Japan is in with a win over Columbia AND a Greece win
Greece is in with a win over Ivory Coast and a Columbia win over Japan
Group D:
Costa Rica is in
Italy/Uruguay winner is in. Italy in with tie
England out
Swiss player with a nasty boot to the face. He's coming out and there's blood.....looks worse than Dempsey, if you can believe that.
France strikes first! 1-0 16'
wow back to back 2-0 France
WOW!!!!! France is going straight for the jugular!!! 18' 2-0 France
Absolutely terrible goal keeping
wow, impressive
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA-- GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLL"
France has a PK and the Swiss GK saves it! Still 2-0 France
impressive goalkeeping there
Horrible on the follow. He tried to smash it when he could've softly headed it in and made it 3-0
Well....now it's 3-0 France! 40'
France again. Easy tap home, Mathieu Valbuena. Man, France is looking good this WC. Big team, stars, no expectations. Could be the perfect storm to make a big run
HT: 3-0 France
France requires a win and a Ecuador draw/loss to advance to Round of 16
