Before the third round of the tournament, Cana's reporter asked Uruguay's star striker Luis Suarez whether it was a devilish act to slap the ball out of his hand when he was sure to score a goal in the extended match of the last eight of the 2010 FIFA World Cup soccer tournament, and Luis Suarez choked back that he blamed me for the failure to score the 12-yard goal.
Suarez's handball blocked Cana's goal in the last eight of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Compared to the other Portugal vs. South Korea 2002 revenge, the 2010 World Cup match between the two teams in the last eight because of this handball, followed by Cana kicked off the 12-yard ball, Uruguay was able to survive, but also in the PK battle to stop Cana in the last eight, back to the 2022, this game is just a preliminaries, but it is also a win or go home for both sides of the game.
This year, Cana has participated in two matches that can be said to have the highest total number of goals, except for England vs. Iran and Spain vs. Costa Rica, both of which produced five goals and became the so-called traffic code. The problem of Cana's defense lies in its instability. No matter it is against Portugal or South Korea, Cana has conceded two goals within five minutes in these two matches. On the other hand, against South Korea, the defense has been pressured by South Korea's speed, resulting in a dangerous situation in front of the goal, therefore, how to stabilize the defense and limit the speed of the side road is a problem for Cana.
On the other hand, Uruguay's offense has been very inefficient in this tournament, with a total of 21 shots and 4 shots on goal that couldn't be converted into goals, and Uruguay will have to win the game against Ghana and score more than two goals to have a chance!
advancement
The team is expected to be organized in an attacking 433 formation, with Nunez and Suarez as the key players.
Since Uruguay will be playing a lot of offense in this match, we can expect Cana, which is good at defensive counterattack, to find chances in this match. The key lies in whether Uruguay can find the efficiency of attacking, and whether Cana's defense can maintain the same level of concentration for 90 minutes. However, it is expected that this match will be a big attacking game, so I predict Uruguay to draw 2-2 with Ghana.
