Suarez goal disallowed  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 8:25 am : link
But that looked good to me.
The goal wasn't..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 8:31 am : link
disallowed I don't think. He missed putting it in. It would've counted.
Let's Go SPAIN !!!!

Egypt doing a great job

I wouldn't use Salah if I were Cuper as long as it remains scoreless. Save him for the other group matches where getting goals will be more important.
what was Suarez doing there  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 9:33 am : link
just one touch dude.
Suarez having a nightmare  
Go Terps : 6/15/2018 9:34 am : link
Cavani looks in the mood though.
Holy shit  
montanagiant : 6/15/2018 9:42 am : link
That was one clutch save
Cavani hits the post  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 9:48 am : link
and Uruguay botches the rebound.
GOAL Uruguay 1-0

Devastating for Egypt.

One final..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 9:55 am : link
flop for Suarez and the ref rewards it by giving Egypt a yellow.
I'm trying to enjoy this  
Walt in MD : 6/15/2018 9:56 am : link
but the flopping is absurd.
Suarez is an absolute clown  
Kyle in NY : 6/15/2018 9:56 am : link
Gutted for Egypt. 0-0 would have been a terrific result
Suarez might be mentally unstable

Was rooting for Egypt  
John in Loudoun : 6/15/2018 9:59 am : link
Based solely on my hatred for Suarez.
On plays like that..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 10:05 am : link
where Suarez grabs his head and starts rolling around in pain, that's the time to give a straight red to show that the shit won't be tolerated.

Instead, Egypt got a card for a tackle he also flopped on

Juventus  
giantBCP : 6/15/2018 10:47 am : link
picked up Bentancur for 8m after they picked up a buy option on him for sending Tevez back to Argentina. It looks like that turned out to be a bargain for them.
Suarez sucks up all the oxygen  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 11:05 am : link
Tough to play with two center forwards who do the same things. Cavani looked much more in tune with the game.
Salah should have been sent in  
PatersonPlank : 6/15/2018 11:10 am : link
at least for part of the match
I think..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 11:13 am : link
Egypt was trying to steal a tie. Really unfortunate that they conceded in the final minute

feels like a World Cup finals or semifinal.

what a treat
Iran..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 12:49 pm : link
is going to the turf and forcing the stretcher to come out every possession.

There should be 10 minutes of stoppage time, but you'll never see it that high
Fitting end to..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 6/15/2018 12:56 pm : link
this one. Morocco puts in an own goal to lose.
Nacho concedes a penalty to Ronaldo  
Kyle in NY : 6/15/2018 2:07 pm : link
and he converts. I think they got the call right. Is Nacho a better option than Azpilicueta at RB? Not sure

1-0
David Silva just missed  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 2:11 pm : link
what would have been a real nice goal.

I believe Nacho is playing because someone got hurt?

disagree on the call, its too early in the game for that to be called a PK. More of a dive IMO
Costa scores 1-1  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 2:25 pm : link
great individual effort. Portugal could've went up 2-0 but blew a break.

Carvajal I believe.

Costa with a classic Costa goal. If anything he’s a physical presence up there. May have gotten away with a foul in the buildup so if you think the penalty was weak, we’re even.

1-1
Feels like the World Cup is beginning in earnest

with this match. Fantastic action thus far
Brutal job by De Gea  
UConn4523 : 6/15/2018 2:46 pm : link
that hurts before the half
An absolute disaster of a goal  
Kyle in NY : 6/15/2018 2:46 pm : link
conceded by De Gea. Probably the last thing I expected to see

2-1
There have been warning signs with De Gea  
Go Terps : 6/15/2018 2:47 pm : link
Spilled one against Tunisia, and another against Argentina in March.

Also, every corner Spain takes should be short. They play into Portugal's counterattack with each lost corner.
De Gea did a Karius there

I agree with that. However, being the ugly American, there's still too much flopping, even on that magnificent goal (though it didn't work). It detracts from the obvious mad skills a Spain-Portugal match showcases.
David Silva has really come into his own  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 6/15/2018 3:00 pm : link
Just a frightening creative player for the opposition.
Lame lineup from Spain.  
giantBCP : 6/15/2018 3:08 pm : link
They got smashed with the old guard last World Cup. I'm not sure why they didn't implement some aggressive changes.
Costa!  
Kyle in NY : 6/15/2018 3:13 pm : link
He might not totally fit with this team. But he’s proving his worth

2-2
2-2 Costa
