Group H's General Discussion Thread

I have to admit Cape Verde has had a remarkable Stage Group effort for what they actually were suppose to put forth. That being said, I see them easily going out in the Round of 32.

 

That could be a blowout. A Messi Hat Trick.

 

Uruguay x Spain might be the worst match of the group stage so far(?).

Just 1 (weak) shot on goal combined.

 

Games not living up to the hype that is for sure.

I will blame it partially on the altitude.

 

I Believe

 

I hope you're correct.

 

Spain should have scored there.

 

Red card.

 

0-0 Final

 

Uruguay eliminated.

 

Cabo Verde becomes the smallest nation ever to advance to knockouts.

 

They advance without scoring a single goal
has this ever happened ?

 

They scored 2.

 

I see what you did there.

 

How poor was Uruguay? Sub out the goalkeeper at halftime, etc.Yikes!

Pub league material.

 

Cape Verde advancing is like the smallest 16 seed you can think of making it to the next round in March Madness!!!

 

It is not that crazy. They have played well in Africa and beaten good teams in their region.
It is more like a team from the Big 12 that is not a traditional contender advancing. Something like TCU.

 

this dumbass is the reason why Uruguay lost , what a horrible attempt to save that shot , he shouldn't have started the game after the embarrassing performances in the previous 2 games

 

The altitude of Zapopan is not high enough to be relevant, no? The game was cagey just as it was expected to be. Was never going to be a high scoring one.

 

It is a factor. Not as high as El Azteca but still high. Ask any athletes playing sports in Denver if it takes a toll by the end of a match. (Denver is around the same altitude. )
