My Uruguyans got knocked out right away, but at least they were in it for a sec; Chile failed to even qualify. Now I just have Argentina to root for.

We were in the Rockies on a family vacation (8 years ago? !) and it seems I remember Uruguay going further. I love all the SA teams, having played against the local club team in Colombia ( and getting slaughtered), they are all talented.

Uruguay punches way above their weight class, so to speak. They've won twice, including beating Brazil, though that was in 1950. They hosted the first World Cup in 1930 [then the World Championship) and won against Argentina.

Sets up a great tie Portugal v Spain.
I’d be suprised if Spain don’t win it.

 

[Rope_goat]

[Mick Dempsey!]

As a football man, I see it as a sideshow, I don’t think he’s a real team player anymore.
He’s long past his best.

England held on.!!!, Now they must face the lurking Haaland, The Braut man, the Cro-Magnon, while the fans move the stadium a few nautical miles north.

 

[Mick Dempsey!]

A very good result.

Haaland we are familiar with, doesn’t mean we can stop him, but I’d rather Norway than the Brazilians,

Let me just say for the record that the red card of Balogon should stand, for if we now win the next round, we are sullied by Trump's intervention.

 

[Mick Dempsey!]

The optics are very bad.

Shameless corruption.

 

[Mick Dempsey!]

All that good will lost, for nothing.

Ok, on we go.

What an amazing comeback, but I think Egypt should have kept the goal that was taken from them.

 

[Mick Dempsey!]

Bit pissed off, cos now it’ll likely be us against Argentina in the semis if we beat the Nogs.
