Watch Colombia Vs. Uruguay Live Stream Free, 2014 World Cup Knockout Stage
Watch Colombia vs. Uruguay live stream free, in the second game of the 2014 World Cup knockout stage. This one promises to be full of excitement and hopefully no biting, with Luis Suarez suspended.
Colombia qualified in first place for the round of 16, with no real challenge to them during the groups stage. Things were very different for Uruguay, who moved on by the teeth of their skin, after defeating Italy 1-0 in a dramatic match.
Uruguay is disgraced by the Suarez scandal and looks forward to putting the situation behind them and doing better than their 2010 fourth place. The South Americans are also two-times World Cup champions and are the winners of the infamous 1950 Maracanazo, the last time Brazil hosted the tournament.
Colombia has never gotten better than 14th place, but they have high hopes with stars such as midfielder James Rodriguez, who can put the ball in the opponent’s net. The Andean country has to prove they can compete at the international level in the World Cup knockout stage.
Fans who watch Colombia vs. Uruguay live stream can witness how Uruguay bounces back from the embarrassment caused by Luis Suarez biting incident during the Italy match. The forward was suspended for four months and nine national matches, and is prohibited from coming near a football pitch.
Suarez missed Uruguay’s opener, which they lost in spectacular fashion against the Group of Death underdog, Costa Rica. Following the crushing 3-1 defeat Los Charruas rallied and defeated former World Cup champion, England.
In head to heads Uruguay comes on top with eight wins, two draws, and four losses. Colombia has won four, tied two, and lost eight. Uruguay is one of the top teams in South America and has many players competing in European leagues.
Fans who watch Colombia vs. Uruguay live stream free, can be assured to see a fierce fight as both teams are known for leaving it all on the field. If this match ends up in overtime and penalties, Colombia has an advantage against the aging Uruguay team.
Of the past three encounters between Colombia and Uruguay, the latter has won two matches, with Colombia slamming Uruguay 4-0, in the World Cup qualifier of 2012. La Celeste should win this match, if history is any indication, but this is the World Cup and we could be in for a surprise with a young Colombia squad.
