Hahaha...
the first one would have been "and-1" and the latter would have been "came up with a big steal.." As to that red card, meh.. Uruguay has been gift wrapped this match like it was boxing day, and yet, clearly they just don't want it. I think Italy will pull it off..

I've been watching this game since 9AM.. I've seen Uruguay flop around like crazy and the ref blowing whistles more than I've seen in a single match in years.. Meanwhile the score is still 0-0...
Every time Italy tries to get something going suddenly there is a phantom whistle... Its getting old fast. I've seen this ref a few times now, he is always this bullshit with his whistle, but today its bordering on a comedy of the absurd... Uruguay meanwhile, has largely been the beneficiary of these whistles.. what is the score again? Right. Cero a Cero ![]()

What, like the Costa Rica-England match is going better?
Let me ask you honestly, as a fan of Italy are you honestly in anyway even remotely impressed with this game?

i love both teams. not "impressed". it's a very tough grind. both teams play rough and dirty.
2 yellows, 1 red, chiellini vs. suarez, etc. think 2 tectonic plates pushing for the earthquake oh, there's the goal uruguay "didn't want" maybe he'll take it back! |

You taking too much offense to my saying "they didn't want it" its not as big a deal as you're making it.
Moral of the game, both teams had plenty of chances to score and really seemed to be playing hot potato with it.. Meanwhile Uruguay finally got one, in the highest scoring Group stage in World Cup history......... .... ..... should I give them a cookie? ![]()

Just an awful game, up there with Iran/Nigeria.
Oh Suarez...oh Suarez... EDIT:I was talking about the England on the first line.

HOWEVER! From what it sounds like the Italy game was just as bad.

You can break down this game, dissect all the formations and tactical adjustments, but it will all come down to the same thing.... There was an endless parade of flops, gaffes, and half-assed plays. There were way too many whistles which seemed to almost completely thwart Italy's offensive chemistry. By the final 1/3 of the match, it became clear that both teams understood the ref was whistle crazy and increased the flopping. I bet if we go back and count, like 15% of the 97 minutes of this match involved people standing around looking at a dude flopping on the ground. Anyway, I know you like Italy, sorry for your loss, boring or not.

i enjoyed the drama (and some comedy) Quote:
ha ha-- i'm happy a south american is going through! i didn't want either team to lose but i'm very happy for uruguay. except they probably just lost suarez. so so here's how i saw that game italy qualifies with a tie. uruguay needs to win. both teams have a strong defense. both teams are very strong on the counter. both teams have game-changing strikers (balotelli, suarez). both teams are sneaky and play dirty. uruguay has an incentive to win but can't throw themselves up front with everything because one good italian counter can erase their chances. italy needs to watch their goal but they need to slow uruguay more than anything. therefore, both teams attack cautiously during the first half. they want to score but neither can overcommit. camoranesi call the game "tibio" (warm, or lukewarm-- i.e. not hot). however, tactically, this made sense for reasons explained above. at the same time, there's a lot of dramatics trying to game the ref. chiellini throws himself on the ground grabbing his face when he wasn't hit in the face. he does that several times. two or three, can't recall. then balotelli starts acting erractic and practicing kung-fu. gets carded. that was the beginning of italy's destruction. ![]() at the halftime, balotelli is no more. this is a terrible loss for italy because they lose their unpredictable danger upfront. parolo comes in, verrati goes on the attack. both teams start pushing a little more, but not too much. fouls continue, cards, etc. then marchisio gets thrown out on a vicious foul. maybe not so deadly but lots of ill intent and right in front of the ref's eyes. univision calls it a good call, espn calls it over the top. lol! so tabárez sees the opening-- takes pereira and puts in an attacker. [eta: this didn't work as planned. instead it allowed italy to go on the counter.] then immobile goes out and cassano comes in and i know italy is fucked. immobile is tired, but cassano is a useless degenerate. italy has no options up front. now comes suarez with a dangerous shot on the ground and buffon makes a tremendous save then chiellini and suarez start fighting and looked like both should ahve thrown out. on later review (on univison at least) we find out about the biting. uruguay scores. italy goes on the attack but leaves themselves open to counters. suarez now looks tired. in the end, buffon in the area trying for a goal. and now after uruguay finally triumphs, all we're talking about is suarez biting people. the agony and the ecstasy and then the agony again. i enjoyed the game-- not for what was evident on the movement of the ball, but for the enormous tension & trench warfare. and i was ready to be happy for uruguay but now what happens to suarez? |

I think he needs to be banned or at least suspended for more than one international game ONLY because this biting people is a trend for him, and it was one thing to do it in league futbol, its a totally different fucking animal to be cheating on such a big stage, in such an important clinching match at the fucking WORLD motherfucking CUP. If you ask me, Suarez is the most classless fucker in futbol. The guy clearly has some of the best talent IN THE WORLD, indisputably, but he keeps blatantly cheating in big games time and time again. It amazes me that the entire world seems to hate Lebron James, yet give this cheating fucker a pass? Meh The ball don't lie, just like it didn't lie last time Uruguay cheated against Ghana in the World Cup, and it won't lie again this year, Uruguay kiss your chances goodbye.. Si signor!!
