Ghana, who's in this, Luis Suarez, won the game for Uruguay. He's back on the squad for Uruguay, and then all of a sudden, Ghana has to face him yet again. And you know, Ghana has a pretty decent pedigree here. They've made it to the group stage in three of the past four appearances that they've had. So they've always been considerably strong when they've actually made this tournament
Alright, phil group H. Now, this one is going to be watched by a lot of people, but not because of the football. I imagine mostly because of Cristiano Ronaldo, who is currently going through some drama, but I'll get to that in a little bit later. So we can't forget that the €2018 were won by a very, very strong Portugal side, and they're definitely entering this World Cup as one of the favorites
For us, he is a goal scorer for Ghana, that should be noted. He scored twelve goals in 28 games, which is very different from his Arsenal career, where he has had some of the most horrible misses I have ever seen in my entire life. It got to the point where we didn't want him to shoot the ball almost ever so group H. Very, very interesting one

Well, Phil, we're approaching the Portugal. Ghana and Portugal just made it three one. It's interesting. As soon as Ruben Nevis comes off and Bruno shifts more deeper into the midfield, we're seeing two goals from Portugal, pretty much one right after the other. The Ghana defense just really falling apart, especially on the second goal there. The defender was not tracking the man well enough. I saw it on the TV
Oh, Phil, I love this game. Right after I post my my swell. Ghana managed to score a horrible defensive error from looks like Josh and Cello. Christiano Ronaldo looks totally shocked. It's funny because he Bruno Fernandez and and Joel Felix all came off a triple sub. And then immediately after the goal is scored. I don't know that they're going to be able to pull a draw out of this in extra time

Taylor. My thought process was tracking just right along with you. I thought the second goal by Ghana might be a difference maker in this tournament. It might be the difference on advancing or not because you are right. I think this is going to be a group that other than Portugal, I think goals are going to be a premium and getting that second one just that could be monumental if you're into goal scoring

Uruguay played to a zero zero tie against South Korea. And they really need to show something in the second match. They really have to come at this with a lot more intensity. And they need to score goals, just plain and simple. They need to score goals, which they haven't done yet. And we know Portugal can put it in the back of the net. And I don't know that they're going to have much problem with Uruguay's defense

And if that happens, then all sorts of scenarios are in play. So taking a look at Ghana and Uruguay, ghana can score goals. We know that they put an emphasis on offense, and that should spell good news for Uruguay, who is desperate to score goals. They have not scored a goal in this tournament yet. They have to score a goal. If they win, they are through. But they have had trouble finding the back of the net

Taylor I thought that goal might have been offsides, but I never really saw a look at it and never really saw anybody question it. So it's a goal. So Uruguay needs to score here, desperate to score. If they can put a goal in, that would put them ahead on goal differential, and they would sail through. So it'll be a very exciting last three minutes. And here's a shot just wide. Absolutely unbelievable. Drama filled afternoon or morning here. Unbelievable
