I wonder how Uruguay get on in the semi-final with Suarez (also thought the same about the missing Cavani in the 2018 quarter-final against France).
Such a string of wasted opportunities... Suárez suspended in 2010, again in 2014 (absolutely his fault, with arguably a better side), then Cavani breaking up for the France game.
I don't mind what happens today because we aren't as competitive as any of those sides.
The one thing that always intrigued me though was what would have happened in a Ghana-Netherlands semi. The Dutch (Boers?) had a license to kick the shit out of everyone that Summer.
Brazil got robbed with even someone as calm as Kaká losing his shit, we got robbed in their first goal, Spain got kung fu kicked all over the pitch. Would they have been allowed to get away with MvB and NdJ kicking the shit out of the Ghanaians? What would have happened when they retaliated?
I'm sure we would be remembering that game now and it probably wouldn't be pretty.
