Copa America 2011

Funny seeing the Real Madrid players surrounding the referee when Messi is fouled.

Referee very lenient with Alvaro Pereira there.

Caceres was brutal there. No subtlety at all.

Messi is on fire tonight.

A beautiful flow to this game so far. Been very impressed with Gago, he’s dictating the tempo of the game.

Perez again. He has to be very close to a red card.

Perez must be a tackle away from being sent off now. Tabarez really needs to think about taking him off.

31 minutes. :clap:

Yellow card after 31 minutes. :clap:

Bang on. :clap:

Good call by the linesman to disallow the Higuain header. Argentina are playing very well here.

What sort of idiot is Perez diving in like that?

Agreeing with Totti on Gago. He’s been excellent. Fulfilling that “5” role for Argentina perfectly. Not just sitting there and breaking it up like Cambiasso and Mascherano but dictating the pace as the volante.

:o

This game would have been tailor made for one of the world best defenders in the past 20 years.

Legend.

Perez finally walks.

Tabarez needed to do a Kieran McGeeney rather than a Pat Gilroy, a blind man could have seen it coming

Perez should have had 1 red card and 2 yellow cards at least in his time on the pitch. Clown.

Really foolish. He’s had a load of fouls since his first yellow.

I’d say Uruguayan Sunday league football is some laugh.

Forlan’s delivery is absolutely lethal.

These free kicks from Forlan are unerring.
