Ready for another Centenariazo?

Haha, not quite

I can see it being more of a Tabárez vs Farías match, two great and well-known tacticians and in my opinion, the best coaches in South America.
I think it will be one of those matches that are sentenced by a corner or free-kick.

Farias a great tactician? mmm... I think it will be a tough game indeed with the physical bit being the deciding fact in the end. Uruguay has the advantage there so I hope Venezuela goes out and try to seize a goal in the early stages.

I meant it in the sense that he analyzes his opponents and leaves little to chance. I read a week ago that he uses a software for this, the same as Tabárez.
An interesting match, in the end... (I hope

)

^ they are both quality sides. i still dont know how argentina havent even come close to winning anything with a team like that...

JongWK · « **Reply #7 on:** May 31, 2012, 02:04:34 am »

Pizarro out for Peru's games against Colombia and Uruguay. Farfan in doubt for the first game.

paz22 · « **Reply #8 on:** May 31, 2012, 11:12:16 pm »

Uruguay's confirmed starting XI for Saturday:

Muslera
M.Pereira Lugano Godin Caceres
D.Perez Arevalo Rios A.Pereira
Cavani Forlan Suarez

Coates won't be playing after all as Godin has recovered.

Venezuela won't be giving out this information until last minute apparently.

Assist from Alvaro Pereira. Coates just came in for Lugano, and will likely play against Peru next Sunday in his place.

Own goal from Godin. 1-1

Cracking game overall, happy with the draw

Virna · « **Reply #18 on:** June 2, 2012, 09:52:13 pm »

Uruguay played really badly in the 2nd half.
Suarez and Cavani had an awful afternoon as well.

... What on earth is that pitch!

For fuck's sake...
God bless Bravo. If it wasn't for him, we'd be at least three goals down.

I miss Isla

That is just a mouthwatering attacking quartet. Argentina really should be dominating international football with the talent they have at their disposal.

0-2 Chile.

Vidal scores and makes it 0-2 for Chile.

(Wasn't Vidal among the suspended players that were "kicked out" of the National Team in November? Or is that suspension over)

Yes, but he sent his apology and it was accepted. He's the only one of those who can play for our NT.

Aguero scores. The attacking talent Argentina have is insane.

Fucking lovely goal for Argentina, 3-0 already. Ecuador playing horribly.
