I'd rather lose to the eventual winners compared to people who get out the next round tbh...

But Ghana dived and did theatrics in the '06 game as well, and while Uruguay are certainly not clean, neither are Ghana.

Kingson has gone, amazing I thought he'd a great Comp so far.

Turned into a half-decent, if shambolic game, this.

Not only extra time, but the very last second of extra time - past 120:00..

Hmm. Was regretting my decision to bring Suarez into my fantasy side. Reckon missed penalties go down as badly as the alternative Gyan though.
Forlan wasn't an option clearly

Crazy finish to the match though. Will Suarez miss the final if, by some miracle, Uruguay get there?

Why was the Uruguan player crying when he left? If he didn't get his hands on the ball, it was a 100% sure loss. If he got a hand on it, it was a 75% loss (the percentage of successful penalty kicks in World Cups)....

He had to do it...he had no choice.
