We’ll see both semi-finals over there but desperately hoping Colombia reach the Final as that weekend we’re heading along to Barranquilla to meet up with our World Cup pals from last year. It’ll be magic to watch Colombia in the Final with them! 👍🏼🇨🇴 Just arrived in Bogotá to find out Colombia were beaten on penalties by Chile. Baws 😩🇨🇴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mox Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Really poor result for Colombia, was there tournament to lose imo, been no one that impressive at all so far. If Uruguay make it through tonight then it's the big 4 in the semi's, shame the kick off times are so bad for UK viewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTeeko Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Everyone here seemed right up for a Colombia win too - the currency exchange people, the taxi drivers, the guy behind the desk at our hotel, ALL of them wearing the Colombia top! South America though huh, it’s fitba before family for most of them! 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uruguay for me still look the pick of the teams although their goalkeeper is poor and he could cost them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their veteran team looks to be over the scars of missing the world cup last summer. Tonight 2000 for Uruguay v Peru and 2100 next Sunday for the final is not bad for us over here but the 0130 wed/thurs morning kickoffs for the semis are a nightmare for anyone who has an early start at work on those days (as I do).

McTeeko Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Where are you Morrie?? It’s just after 2pm here in Bogotá - the family have crashed out jet lagged so I’m in a pub with a few Uruguayans watching their game 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just at home in Stirling watching on Premier Sports ha ha. Decent first half, Uruguay the better team but Peru looking to unlock them on the break.

McTeeko Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) Cracking result for Peru in the other semi, pumping Chile 3-0. Hope they go on to win it now 👍🏼 The Chilean boy making an arse of the Panenka penalty was enjoyable! Edited July 4, 2019 by McTeeko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morrie21 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 Well Brazil took it on home soil. Though the final was a pretty watchable game. On the whole though this Copa will be remembered for the poor standard of refereeing and the quite frankly baffling use of the VAR system at times.

I'm sure though I was watching an early group game and the commentator said they weren't using it until the knock out rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
