If Uruguay had taken most of their chances, they could have actually been leading in this game.

2-0 Portugal! Revenge for knocking them out in R16 last WC.

Now Uruguay are in the same position that Argentina was in before the last round of 1st round games last WC, with 1 point after 2 games

Ghana are in the same position that Nigeria was in last WC, with 3 points after 2 games

Can Uruguay do an Argentina on Ghana in the last game? Or will Ghene get their revenge for 12 years ago?

I only watched the last 10 mins.

But that penalty is a joke. How in hell can that be intentional? The Uruguayan has to brace himself as he falls and is not even playing the ball.

FIFA is a joke. You know the official will call in favor of the more favored team the majority of the time. Either through conspiracy, yeah it still happens, or sheer bias.

Croatia gets shafted a lot against the favored teams like this. You all know a lot of African teams get the same treatment. BS.

They have to make money... they don't like the none sexy teams. Not good for business.

I mean, with 4 million Croats it is like bad market for FIFA.

Ghana pretty much controls their destiny. A draw probably gets the Black Stars passage. I doubt SK can beat much less outscore even a lazy Portugal.

I'm not sure however if Ghana should play too defensive against Uruguay. Then again, Uruguay doesn't seem offensive imposing. But, I'm looking forward to a game where 1 team simply needs the victory.

I am conflicted by the pk, I don't think it was intentional, however, he stopped a great goal-scoring chance. Any, I am not too impressed by either side. Portugal is pedestrian in their build-up and Uruguay were negative and rough until they went a goal down. They deserved to lose.

You know by now I am the last guy who promotes conspiracy theories.

But FIFA has a sordid history of this, where a lot comes out.

I've watched global football since the early 80s and have seen some naked fixing at the highest level.

One of my 1st was the 1982 WC Yugoslavia vs host Spain...Velimir Zajec fouled a Spanish forward well outside the box because if Spain lost, they'd go out in the 1st round. Famous photo. Look at 1:39 of this video.



There are so many examples. Heck, in the same WC Schumacher of W Germany knocked out Battiston of France but didn't even get a foul. In a semifinal, materially impacting the result.

Refs will favor the home or glamor team these days. It's not as egregious, but maybe even more effective given the small margins. One last example: Brazil got 2 gifts against Croatia in their home WC 2014 opener...no way in hell would the ref let them take < 3 points. Phantom penalty, total dive.

But when Perisic can't avoid a handball in human time against France at WC 2018, out comes VAR. Just in time application. FIFA can f*** itself.

...Uruguay were humbled today, am glad about that. Suarez did not have the chance to use his hand.
