I've got the Russia Uruguay game on. Some hard tackles going in.
 
Suarez scores with a freekick.
 
A question on Russia vs. Uruguay, if they have both qualified for the last 16, can we still expect a competitive match?
I'd say both will give it their all.
Russia definitely want to save face and come out their group on top.
And who ever does will face the supposed easier team in the next round of 16.
It's worth a legit fight.

Edit:

Gol Suarez!
 
The free kick was clever and Cavani did well to distract the one defender who would have been in the way and take him out of the equation in a wrestling side-show. But the wall wasn't upto the mark. Akinfeev should do better with his wall construction. He left that channel wide open.
 
Surprisingly open and attacking game this, Russia should be level now, couple of good chances for them, Uruguay very dangerous on the counter.
 
Good to see Arsenal's new player Lucas Torriera get the start next to Bentancur.

Yep made it look like Suarez was going to hit through a gap in the wall, then went low the other side deceived the keeper, probably should have done better but with it being so close little time to react.
 
Miles away! Surprise from Diego Laxalt.

Big deflection - no way the keeper could have saved that. And a lot of players blocking his view.
 
Salah has scored for Egypt again so the are 1-0 up as well.

Yep nothing he could do about that one.

Uruguay suddenly looking like a force here, Russia getting a taster of reality here, makes me wonder how England will fair against better opponents, lol...
 
LOL another near gol left sitting there.

Lots of young talent coming through this team. Sadly the whole team is being vilified here by some.
 
''Suarez was outpaced by a 38yr old'' I think the ITV commentator might be trying to imply something about Russia ;)
 
Red card for Russia, down to 10 men. All going pear shaped for the hosts here.
 
Russia get a player sent off

:hehe: it's almost like the Ruskies have had state-sponsored doping programs in the past or something :huh:

Going to need super soldier serum to pull this one out of the fire.

Saudi Arabia miss a pen, cant catch a break.
