2nd Match Uruguay – France


               Uruguay will use 4-4-2 in this match, although it seems that they prefer to play as 3-5-2 in their most recent matches. Their two solid defenders will be lugano and Godin.  They might not be super star but they are good enough to play in top-level. They will be the key for their team in this tournament. Their full backs are Mauricio Victorino, surprisingly replace Andres Scotti, and Maximiliano Pereira.
                In the midfield, it is very surprising that Walter Gargano will not involve in this match. He will be replaced by Edgidio Arevalo. They use Ignacio Gonzalez as a playmaker behind their two excellent upfront. Their wings are also dangerous with Diego Perez and Alvaro Pereira.  
                The main threat of this team is their two strikers. Forlan and Suarez are really in their best form. They also have another good striker, Edinson Cavani. These Three strikers help them stronger and give them confidence in this World Cup.
                The only one disadvantage is they have only two friendly matches which they both win against Switzerland and Israel. This might also see as a good thing because they will have full condition players before the tournament.

                France is the team that people are most disappointed with. They won only one in their last five matches. Therefore, in this World Cup, Nobody think they are going to go as far as last time.
                Raymond Domenech prefers using 4-3-2-1. Hugo Lloris is a good young goalkeeper but he is still young and may not have enough experience.  His favourite 4 defenders are Sagna, Gallas, Abidal and Evra.  They are very strong and full of experiences.
                With the midfield, He put Toulalan, Malouda and Gourcuff together. For Malouda, I rate him the best as a Winger not central midfield. He has good technique and skill. I would like to put Diaby instead of him.
                At Forward, He uses Govou and Ribery on the side and set Anelka as a target man. They are good on the paper but in reality, they are not good connected. The whole team work is very bad

                Prediction: Although, France’ forms is not impressing and there is a rumour that they have a conflict in their camp, they are still one of the contender for me. They have much more experiences than Uruguay who rarely play in the final stage. Tonight France won’t lose. France 1-0 Uruguay
