World Cup 2018

After 15 minutes I can say Egypt is far better than Saudi Arabia. This is an interesting match. I’ve always loved the physicality Uruguay. Old school footie.

I think that was a goal.

The England team visited an orphanage in Russia yesterday. “Its heartbreaking to see those poor faces with no hope” said Oleg, aged 6.

Lol…post of the thread. :thumbsup:

Entertaining first half. Egypt with Salah will be quite dangerous going forward.

That is an old joke that gets wheeled out for every England campaign…and I piss myself every time I hear it.

Technically you can see the gulf in quality between these two and Russia v SA yesterday.

That doesn’t necessarily translate into a free-flowing goalfest but at least I’m not checking to see if I’m watching two sunday-league pub teams.

If I’m Egypt manager my gamble of holding Walsh out of this match is paying off. Their WC rests on their next match v Russia. Egypt looks damb good.

Suarez has to put one of these in. Took too long on that one. Had a clear shot to the far post there.

A bit disappointed in Uruguay and surprised at Egypt. Pretty sure that both teams that come out of this group will go out in the first knockout round.

I’m not sure about Portugual and if Egypt manages to qualify for the next round they will be hungry and unpredictable. I wouldn’t coubtvthem out quite yet.

No Salah today.

Four Uruguayan players alone with the ball and they can’t shoot the ball. Jesus.

One great save by the Egyptian goalie. The next off the post. Looks like I might not be going to work today.

Nevermind.

Nice goal great game. Thank you God of Football.

Great header for the goal. Excellent result for Uruguay. Not a disaster for Egypt though since we probably expect Uruguay to sweep the group.

Uruguay playing 3 in the back. Seems too risky to me.

I agree but Uruguay has been disappointing today. Had Salah played the result could be different.

I know no one has any expectation for Iran v Morocco but it could be a great match. One team has to win this match to have a chance in this group.
