I'll be in bed by then, but Messi v Suarez looks like it could be exciting.

Lamela didn't make it.
Though there were growing calls throughout the match for Di Maria to be replaced by him (on Twitter). Be interesting to see if Di Maria keeps his place for the next game, he is not completely rated it seems by the fans at the moment given his form.
Whether or not that opens the door for Lamela, who knows. They already have Messi, Aguero, Di Maria, Pastore starting with Lavezzi, Higuain and Tevez on the bench. Lamela is well rated in Argentina too though.
Good goal, Man City combo of a whipped Zabaleta cross and a great near post header from Aguero.
They dominated really, especially the first half but Uruguay defended well.
The Argies do look suspect when being counter attacked though, Otamendi, Zabeleta and Mascherano are very good players, but the middle of the park is left open and damage can be caused to them I think.

Just noticed that Balanta is not even in Colombia's squad. Until 2-3 seasons ago he was seen as a future world class defender (with pace, ball skills, composure etc), with Barca and Real M., interested in him. Now not even Porto - or any other Primeira div nor La Liga nor Ligue 1 club - seem to be intereseted.

Whilst headbutting an opponent is an unacceptable act and deserves punishment, I do feel for him. Colombia were clearly trying to get him riled with over physical challenges and after what zuniga did to him last year I'm not surprised he's reacted.

Good to see Lamela get an, all be it supper brief, taste of playing for his country at a finals. Even it was only 6 mins in the Copa America.
Also, Jamaica were really enjoyable to watch the second half. turned into a good game.
