World Cup 2014: how was the game Italy - Uruguay
On June 24, in the Brazilian city of Natal,the most important match in Group D. For the exit to the stage of the playoffs fought the national teams of Italy and Uruguay. Italians suited a draw, and South Americans needed only a victory.
Perhaps the game Italy-Uruguay provokesscandal at the World Championships, dedicated to judging. The fans did not see the bright sparkling football. The game was very tense and unpredictable. The leaders of the teams did not show their best qualities, but the main character of the meeting was a man who has nothing to do with Italy or Uruguay. The main arbiter from Mexico, Rodriguez Marco, said his word on the 59th minute of the match, becoming the main character of the game ...
The beginning of the first half took place with the advantagethe European team. The Italians controlled the ball more and tried to threaten the enemy's goal with mounted gears. However, there were no dangerous moments. A terrible game showed Balotelli - the only thing that the black striker was able to do on the field was to get a yellow card. In the second half of the half, the Uruguayans added, but they could not create a super-goal moment. From the first half, you can remember only one dangerous attack by Uruguayans, during which the goalkeeper of Italy twice came into play, and the Italians remembered only Pirlo's free-kick.
The second half of the meeting began with an equal game,and then there was a major event in the match, which effectively influenced the outcome of the meeting. Chief referee Rodriguez Marco comes to the fore, showing a highly controversial red card by Claudio Marchisio in the 59th minute. Questions on this episode will still be. Many people had the impression that the judge simply confused the cards.
After that Uruguayans, having numericaladvantage, began to attack with great strength. They pressed against the gates of the Italians, but the latter held on. It is necessary to admit that only one man was at the gate of the Italian national team. Uruguayan player dangerously punched at the gate of the European team from the penalty area, but did not get on target.
At the 79th minute again the chief arbiter of the meetingplayed openly for Uruguay. Luis Suarez in the penalty Italians bites Kelini's shoulder, but no card was not shown by the referee. Regardless of national preferences, any person who understands football knows - this is a clean red card. The referee again made a mistake in favor of Uruguay.
Already a couple of minutes after the corner Diego Godin scored, perhaps the main goal in his life. Uruguay comes forward in the 81st minute of the meeting, and the entire football Italy plunges into mourning.
After the goal scored, the Italians tried to attackin a minority, but they could not do anything. 1 - 0 wins Uruguay and comes from second place from group D to the playoff stage. The Italians also make up the company of Spain, England and several other teams that leave the championship.
