Egypt v Uruguay

Recommended Posts

Hopefully a thrilling end to end game full of madness and heads departing.

I'll go for a 3-1 Uruguay victory. Suarez to bite Salah's new prosthetic arm.

Aye hoping for a Uruguayan win with regards to my betting. Egypt still feeling effects of Ramadan? Salah not quite 100%?

Would imagine most of the players would have been given exemptions from fasting, so shouldn't be too badly affected. Salah's fitness is probably the only worry for them. Uruguay win and a couple of Cavani goals will do me. Expect BTTS as Uruguay are poor at the back.

Do folk seriously believe Ramalamadingdongadan is going have any affect on professional athletes?
Pretty sure they've just ignored the whole religious debacle tbh. 


Big ask to just ignore your religion.

I think you’d be surprised. It’s had an effect in other sports.

Has it?

 

Yes. For example there was an Egyptian sumo wrestler who competed at the highest level in grand tournaments during Ramadan. He unsurprisingly had pretty poor results.

 

There actually discussing on the BBC right now about how the Egyptians have been observing the fast.

The Saudis took exemptions but Egypt haven't. It could have an physical impact, but equally it could mentally strengthen them and help with bonding.
