Cavani replacing Suarez, Lodeiro and Fucile and Lugano out. They do have Godin back though to sure up teh defence.
 
 Gonna be a tough road against the clockwork orange. Can they do it?

Had to be done. I thought Tabarez was gonna put my man Loco Abreu in to start but it looks like he is gonna stay on the bench, look out for him to replace Cavani in second half.

I'm nervous for them considering who they've got out. An in form striker and two quality defenders. Their midfield has to step up - I think that will be where this game will be won.

probably a bridge too far. I think they need their full squad to give Holland a seeing too.
tough to back the Dutch in a penalty shoot out though

A bridge too far concerning Holland?

There's no Rhine or reason to that logic.

irony = the bigger cheats and more cynical side won today

Great tournament for Uruguay. Congratulations to all involved, alongside NZ, Ghana and Slovakia 'pound for pound' they get top 4 finish from me.

This.
 
I thought they did great, especially considering they scraped through qualifying. Good to see them finish highest out of all the South American teams.
