I can open it if Bojan isn't here, and there's enough people.

Thanks for the effort Flavia

He did say the other day when Bolivia vs Equador (I think) were playing that it was only worth it when "our players" were playing. No-one bothers otherwise.

Uruguay is so frustrating to play against. Tough as shit.

 

[Capitan Puyol]

Pathetic football by both teams, and Tata was expulsed...

 

[BrazilFan]

These refs in this tournament is just letting things go.

Tevez showing why he shouldn't start.

Tevez showing why he shouldn't start.

Indeed. That was really dumb... he chose the hardest pass, not to mention he had Messi on his left. Abysmal.

Very important win today for Argentina, Urugay + the ref really made it dreadfull to watch but i'm glad they got the win !

Now it's up to PAR - URU to fight it off in the last game to qualify

Looking forward to BRA - COL tomorrow !!

Argentina truly plays like a kindergarden team. "Me me me me!!!". They wont pass the ball to save their life...They are all pretty damn good technically, so how come its so hard to pass a fucking ball to your teammate? Aguero looks like Smeagol with his ring when he has the ball.

Until they fix that the only way they are winning anything is on individuality. Oh and ADM...boy Im not even starting on that guys performance.

Not the prettiest but a character boost. You wont get much better football against Uruguay in neutral ground with referees that encourage rough play. Argentina can now regroup and grow from here. I expect Colombia Brazil will be another kick-fest so hopefully Neymar and Dani come through unscathed.

Improvements over the first match but Tata was late with his subs, but at least he didn't make the wrong subs this time. The Suarez-less Uruguay is still a strong team. Stronger than many teams Argentina faced in the World Cup. Rojo and Di Maria were poor and I didn't like Mascherano's distribution much tonight. Messi should get more involved in the game. Zabaleta was the best Argentine player.

Messi at rw, without Alves and Rakitic doesn't work... He gets too isolated there. I'd play him in the middle.

That's the unfortunate thing about the NTs. They dont have enough time to gel and work things up together. I don't think moving Messi to the middle will make everything goes fine all of a sudden. The team has already had some change of style after Sabella left. Changing it again in the middle of the tournament is not a good idea to me.
