Well, just because I support them doesn't mean I'm gonna pretend Cronaldo and Pepe are likeable lol. I'm not out of my mind. But imo this new generation coming through with guys like Bernardo or Guedes is a bit more likeable.

Since Salah isn't starting, I'm changing my score prediction for the Egypt x Uruguay game to 0 - 3 for Uruguay.

Uruguay are cunning, they're letting Egypt attack while controlling the game. Of course, it can backfire.

I dunno. the way I see it is Uruguay is breaking a sweat for real.

If they bring Salah on, he's the finisher Egypt needs atm. I think Egypt can seriously win this game if Uruguay play the same way in the second half.

then again, I worry the Egyptian team would function less as a team and more revolving around Salah if he's playing

Uruguay will reach the Russia game already qualified with 6 points, they might even rest players and be happy with a draw

Same applies to Russia is they beat Egypt tho. In which case both teams may decide to try hard in order to get an easier Ro16 match.

player rankings updated.

only sloonei missed out on points so far because he didn't predict anything for the 1st game

JJJ, Iai, wolbre and melatonii netted 2 pts thanks to a score difference of 1 goal. and the rest of us 1 for predicting Uruguay as winners. no one guessed the exact score yet.

In the fifth minute of a six-minute extra-time session! That all but guarantees Morocco will come in last in Group B. Killer stuff.

Cronaldo was insane, almost scored a 4th near the end. Too bad the rest of our frontline looked nervous and wasn't nearly as inspired.
