Peru start really well. They’re gonna regret that early miss though.

Otamendi can’t hack it in the Mascherano role. Must him and Aguero always have the same haircut?

Adams at 15 mil is good value for money.

Keeper saves first one. Suarez missing.

Peru hanging on - 60th minute 0-0. Uruguay have had two goals chalked off by the VAR. Best chance of beating Uruguay if probably on penalties. Make that three goals chalked off by the referee. It’s going to pens, people!

No extra time in Copa America. What a penalty from Vidal.

"Best player on the pitch" followed by "played very safe". Jack Colback early NUFC "good" form all over again. He played safe because there weren’t many options. He still retained the ball. Said that because I saw some calls for him to be played centrally. I think he’s most effective on the left.

2-2 Jimenez. Game has been really good.

Japan take the lead! 2-1

Suarez - Cavani is one of the great strike partnerships in football.

My God, that looks delectable.

Refs never blow for retakes for goalkeeper positioning. Feel like goalies always get the advantage in that situation.

Yeah seriously. This is a time in which the 433 three man front line is thriving and they go into the game with Aguero and Dybala on the bench. All you need to do is have the midfielders scurry about and have the the defenders pump it up to the front line ala Liverpool.

He was probably the best player on the pitch last night. He was playing in the 10 role and was the player that his teammates looked for when they had the ball. In that role, he didn’t exactly pick a penetrating pass but more just ticked things over playing it safe which is understandable because Argentina are a tough team to break down. He’s most dangerous when he’s got space to run into like the assist passage of play. Special moment was when he ran back 60 yards and dispossessed Messi. His stamina is a great strength.

We get to watch a full season of him next season He’s been MOTM, right?

Dybala ain't coming on. They're almost too attacking as it is I’m never gonna get to see him and Messi together. He played 22 minutes at the World Cup.

Still no Dybala. 15 mins left. There should probably be like 10 minutes added on for all the stoppages.

Good job ref. That was a pen. Paraguay one. I mean they both are but good job not needing to go to the var. Ffs dude misses.

Some outrageous challenges so far.

Systems with them have also been ass Can it work? Feel like I’ve never seen them on the pitch at the same time.

Are they? 3rd will get through in 2 groups Oh that’s right!! Totally forgot about 3rd place rules in this.

Argentina out if they lose this.

Classic Almiron too. Just burning past ‘em.

Interesting. Dybala and Aguero on the bench. Lautaro Martinez starting with Messi. Almiron playing in the hole for Paraguay.

Juan Mata signs contract extension to stay at Man Utd.
