I know it’s just “part of the game” especially in South America, but it is still so embarrassing watching a guy take a slight bump and just fall, even though the faller is taller and outweighs the other guy by probably quite a few kilos.
Also a Uruguayan player rolling and writhing, screaming in pain and banging his fist on the turf should not just be getting up and walking a minute later. If you’re in that much pain, your ankle should be broken or something like that. No passing ankle tap can cause that much intense and intolerable pain.
Going to be an interesting second half in Colombia v Uruguay.
Colombia with complete control of the last 10 minutes of the first half after Bentancur was subbed off injured after 34, but then Muñoz gets himself sent off right on half time…
This ref is getting a bit sick of the antics. There’s been a few times where a player has been “injured”, writhing on the ground, and he’s just gone play on!
