Why not? They were very well organised the other day 

[Lionator]

Yes lads, get stuck into these argie wannabe losers

[RowlattsFox]

Bit frantic this game so far 

[Lionator]

These a bloody great, defend like heroes, counter like the final furlong at aintree. The way football was supposed to be. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

THE LADS

[Lionator]

OMG

[AdcockFox]

Great strike 

[Manwell Pablo]

State of that wall is something else. basic match discipline gone missing. 

[Manwell Pablo]

That said the thought of Cape Verde qualifying for the knockout stages of a World Cup because the Spanish decided to have a night off and the Uruguayan's can't set a simple wall to block a 30 yard free kick is highly entertaining.

Amazing stuff! Love to see it.

Harsh. There’s not a team I’ve seen yet who’s worked harder than them.

They deserve some respect. Qualifying automatically from Africa, comfortably ahead of Cameroon, is a feat. They are several rungs above Haiti, Curacao and on this showing even Tunisia.

Love it. 10 defenders in the second half, probably!

[MC Prussian]

Best thing about Uruguay is the shirt.

 

Trailing against a footballing minnow again. Lacklustre.

[MPH]

Aww. Oh well.

[MC Prussian]

Finally. 1-1.

 

Viñas helping the Capverdian, then deciding "fudge that!".

[AKCJ]

Shame.

[shen]

Is it just me that finds it odd that Araujo stooped down to head that rebound in instead of using his feet? 

[MC Prussian]

That was a beautiful team goal. No complaints. 2-1 to the Urus.

[AdcockFox]

Please stop showing the Biter after every Uruguay goal 

[TonyN11]

Great first half to watch

[MC Prussian]

Muslera with yet another brain-dead move.

Deary me.

Come on Cape Verde!!!

[Super_horns]

Probably be a save now but talk about being clinical.

 

From BBC:

“Remarkably we have had four shots on target and four goals. No saves yet from either goalkeeper.”
