      And another for Luis.

      Uruguay's all time leading goal scorer now.

      Nigeria playing well. Almost 50-50 with Spain in this game.

      Some top play from Nigeria. If only they had their 4 or 5 key (but injured) players.

      Will be one to watch in the World Cup next year.

      Jordi Alba is a machine, swear he never stops running all game! He probably runs to and from the stadium too! His 2nd goal was quality, I can think of a lot of strikers who would bottle it and end up messing up that chance!

      The manager also needs to resolve al differences and invite Odemwinge and some key strikers he has ignored.

      Disappointed to hear that Balotelli is missing the remainder of the tournament through injury. It was difficult enough missing Pirlo on Saturday but to miss their main goal threat seriously limits the Italians.

      I would kill to be there, but its too far away for me to make a day trip in the middle of the week. The logical thing is that you guys win, but i always fancy our chances against bith Brazil and Argentina

      On the funny note of the day:
      Remember when 6 players from Spain reported being robbed in the Hotel?
      Well as it turns out from the investigation by the police and the Hotel, after they beat Uruguay they had a small party involving drinking, music, and some girls. After the party, some players went to their rooms with the girls to play Strip Poker. After that 6 players left with girls to their own rooms...

      The video footage from the hotel shows the players , but their names were not revealed...those players were the ones that reported the robbery. Among them is Pique husband of Shakira. Either they were robbed by the escort girls, or...

      Traveling to Belo Horizonte tonight by bus. Gonna spend the day there, watch the game, and get back to Rio the other night. All for football. ;D Will be nice to watch Suarez again but I hope he doesn't do too well.

      My guess is it will be 3-1 to Brazil tonight. Cavani getting the consolation goal. Neymar scoring the opener.

      I think this will be Suarez's last competitive game as a our player.  I'm going to watch him admire the talent that will be missed, on the pitch an awesome player.

      The logical thing to happen is you guys winning, but then again, logic and football not always go well together.
      Just heard Uruguay confirmed the squad. Im furious Alvaro Gonzalez is starting. He is one of the worst players ive seen in the last 5 years. Inexplicable to start him against Brazil. I would have gone with Diego Perez, he knows how to play in this type of games.

      Now i just hope he places Caceres on the right of our defence, because Gonzalez will play on the right and him and  Pereira cant possibly stop Neymar.
      Maybe with Caceres on the second line of the funnel we can do it.

      1-1.

      Cavani levelling after Fred scored towards the end of the first half. Forlan missed a pen as well.

      Suarez keeps going wide instead of cutting in.

      Cavani not only scored, but he's made a few crucial tackles.

      Gutted. Muslera should have done better in the second Brazil goal. Think that a tie suited the match better. Congrats Diego

      Neymar dived a lot. Suarez stayed on his feet where others may have gone down.  Interesting to see if the press will offer praise like they did the criticism,  the announcers and pundits sure didn't.

      Was really starting to admire Neymar this tournament but he can F**k with all that sh*t towards the end of the game.

      Will fit in well at Barca though!

      You guys said the same about Suarez (I remember him being called a cheating c**t here during the World Cup) till he became our player. Different cultures, I laughed my ass off with him sending kisses to that idiot who said some sh*t to him near the corner flag.
