      Boring Copa so far, and im not expecting much from the final either

      It is funny you say that because before the competition Tim Vicky who is a South American football expert for BBC said with the cool conditions that teams who rely more on hard work and running will benefit a lot as they will be able to keep up with closing down and defending unlike when the weather is hot where your energy level isn't as high. So far he looks to be spot on with that comment.

      Bollocks missed that punch up at the end of the penalties last night.

      Just seen it then on SSN, I take it the Venezuela players were a bit pissed off with losing!
      Wasn't really a "punch up"  Was more of a "swing and miss up"  There was some quality shoving though.

      Has anyone ever won a major tournament by not winning a single game?

      To be honest, Uruguay have not played "nice to watch" football in this Copa-save for some moments against Mexico, bits against Argentina, and bits against Peru.

      I do realize Paraguay must-or should- be tired, and if that is true, I expect Uruguay to have a party on the second period, give the difference between both squads.
      BUT...Paraguay have always been a team Uruguay had trouble beating. In the time when we beat Argentina and Brazil easily( yes, that happened once upon a time) we always struggled against Paraguay. It might have something to do with them playing with the same killer drive like we do, dont know...

      Uruguay are favourites, but Im cautious, you never know with this guys.

      Its a battle of the guays

      Has never happened. In the first half of the century they usually had a play off .And havent found any data from then forward.
      Argentina was close in 1990, i think they won 2 and got to the final of the WC

      Thanks, I hope Luis gets a hat trick. He need is to become golden boot, since Perus guerrero scored 3 today vs Venezuela in a 4-1 win
      We need that 15th title like air, as a starting point to return to the place we never should have left: the elite.

      Its funny what good organization can bring, since this is not the best Uruguay team in the past 20 years, but ive seen better generations wasted. Hell, Uruguays team in Italy 1990 was maybe the best in the WC, and underperformed big time, and the list goes on.

      Cracking start to this. Hand-ball on the line to keep a goal out? Arguments for it.

      Been an awesome start for Uruguay, seems like causing a threat every time they get the ball.  

      Paraguay just can't defend going nor can they defend corners.

      As Forlan stands like a bell end, Suarez is rushing the keeper forcing the keeper to clear it.
