I think it's Portugal and one of Uruguay or South Korea (which means one of Son and Bentancur get a nice break).

 

[Houdini]

Portugal and a tight finish for second... hopefully S Korea.

 

[easley91]

Bentancur v Sonny up next. Son starts.

I wouldn't be so sure tbh. I could easily see Portugal finishing 3rd or even 4th in that group. They are obviously favourites but this is the tightest group for me.

Bentancur v Sonny up next. Son starts.

So does Bentancur…

Bentancur v Sonny up next. Son starts.

I suspect all the pundits will concentrate mainly on Sonny and Nunez and Cavani and Luis Suarez, but we know for sure at Spurs that our most valuable player this season and stand out star performer so far has been Rodrigo Bentancur, he has grabbed some key goals for us, dragged us over the line in many games we could easily have lost and he has been our player of the match on many occasions.

I hope they both do well today and we're very lucky to have both of them (they are both without doubt excellent buys).

Valverde is the star of that Uruguay team now.

I've had a dabble on Uruguay e/w, dark horses of the tounament for me.

Valverde is the star of that Uruguay team now.

Valverde, Vecino, Bentancur is a really strong central 3.

With Nunez and Suarez (and Cavani) they have enough quality in front of goal too.

Just not sure about their defence...

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Looks like it’s either Kim or Kim at the back ?

They certainly appear to be a decent shout, and predictably the BBC pundits including Murphy have hardly given Bentancur a mention...
what do they know ?

 

[EastUpperDK82]

I don't care about the result... just stay fit Benta and Sonny please ?

 

[Danners9]

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

South Korea look more fit. That could be a factor late.

 

[SlotBadger]

Darwin Núñez often appears to be a marionette with nobody manning the strings.

 

[IfiHadTheWings]

Suarez is a bit of a tubster these days isn't he... mind you i wouldn't mind being as "tubby" as him.

 

[djhotspur]

Gimenez passing is incredible. Sign him up lcb

 

[BorjeSpurs]

Nice for both of them to play on the final day of the first group games - 4 extra days rest and preparation.

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

Sonny would have scored that chance...

 

[idontgetit]

Feels like Sonny is barely getting a touch.
