Uruguay look strong, well-organised & determined.
They also have two of the most deadly strikers on Planet Earth.
They could win the whole thing. pic.twitter.com/utHs2i1xAI— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) June 30, 2018

Been waiting for this since they jammed their way through the Euro 2016 group stages without a single win.
HAHAHA RONALDO AND PORTUGAL ARE ELIMINATED!
Ah. That felt good.
