Sales of rope hit an all time high this evening as France managed to bore a 10 man Uruguay to perhaps the most pointless point in the history of the world cup.
Highlights of the first half include a pass from Toulalan to Gourcuff, a free kick swerved in by Gourcuff, and narrowly punched over by the Uruguan 'keeper, and maybe there was a shot by Uruguay in there somewhere? I don't know. I'm not going to lie, this first half was atroucious. It really was. Passes were stray, shots were rash, and eyes were wet with tears through boredom. **Sigh.
The second half was worse than the first. The one standout highlight was a shot by Gourcuff that spun out for a throw in. Oh, and there was a red card, but I can't remember who was sent off. Boring stuff.
At the end of the day, you can't have exciting matches everyday. It's a shame that the worst game of the tournament, and it will be the worst game of the tournament, had to come so early on. Bloody French.
