Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Just noticed that Emi Martinez has changed nationality and is sitting on the Uruguay bench.

[Brazilian Villain]

Uruguay's is one of my favourite international kits, but I'm not a fan of this shirt. Even worse when it's with white shorts instead of black.

[cdbearsfan]

This is shite.

[cdbearsfan]

That was more exciting.

[Brazilian Villain]

It's not been great so far. The 35 degree heat probably isn't helping.

[Brazilian Villain]

The Uruguayan goal is living dangerously.

[usav]

It's not been great so far. The 35 degree heat probably isn't helping.

And lightning on the way, apparently.  Who would have thought it in Miami in summer?

[cdbearsfan]

That goal had been coming.

[cdbearsfan]

Imagine not even being the best forty year old goalkeeper in the group.

Edit: not 40 until tomorrow, stupid Fotmob rounding up.

[Brazilian Villain]

Yeah, no great surprise that they're ahead.

I've been in MIA quite a few times when flight ops have been suspended. Some of the rain and lightning has been biblical.

Righto….Uruguay to win the World Cup if the Saudis hold on.

Righto….Uruguay to win the World Cup if the Saudis hold on.

Hope so, I'd love Uruguay to win a third World Cup.

[andyh]

Commentary on the Saudi game is strange. The commentators are making all sorts of excuses for Uruguay being so poor but not giving Saudi the credit they deserve when they have been by far the better team.

Why?

(Honest question; not baiting.)
