The 2nd round begins

The two games today were highly interesting right until the end. Argentina and France both played their best games in the tournament so far (this was actually not that difficult to achieve) and France ended up advancing to the next round. In the other game, Uruguay beat Portugal with an excellent performance by Cavani, who scored two goals before leaving the field because of an injury. France and Uruguay will face each other in the quarterfinals next Friday. Because their teams were eliminated, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have by now played their last match in the tournament and lost their chance to be the top goal scorers.

Since Cristiano wasn't scoring any goals today he tried his luck at making faces at the referee to make him laugh
