The free kick is cleared, and the referee blows for half time. Congratulations to Uruguay, and if there's any justice Suarez will be banned for 12 international matches for biting.
90+4'
Suarez misses from 60 yards, and the referee blows for a free kick 50 yards out for Italy.
90+3'
This game appears finished. Uruguay are defending deep and Italy aren't very good at football.
90+1'
Muslera is booked for time wasting.
90'
Italy are pressing now, but they are lacking the men to cause trouble, and now Gaston Ramirez is tackled in his half. Five minutes left.
89'
I wonder if he'll bite someone else, there's a few minutes left.
87'
Just three minutes to go.
85'
Pirlo has a free kick deflected just wide.

GOAL! Italy 0-1 Uruguay. Godin scores. The corner is curled out towards the defender and he thunders a header into the goal.
79'
Italy have gone even further back. And now Chiellini and Suarez comes together. Suarez and Chiellini is headbutted, and possibly bitten by Suarez. That is hilarious. What a deeply unpleasant man Suarez is. Chiellini swings an arm out at Suarez, but fair enough. If someone bites you, you're allowed to hit them.

Pereira is fouled by De Sciglio on the edge of the box and the Italian is booked. Gaston Ramirez is on in place of Cristian Rodriguez.
77'
Suarez has a pass blocked on the edge of the box. This is textbook Italy-ing.

Thiago Motta comes onto replace Verratti.
74'
Verratti gets clumped by a late takle by Caceres, and he might actually just have cramp, despite others calling for a sub to be made.
73'
Here's Marchisio receiving his red card.

A social media joke.

The wretched Immobile is replaced by Cassano.
70'
Italy are defending on the edge of their box now. I doubt they'll hold out for 20 minutes against Cavani and Suarez.
68'
Immobile is found with a weighted pass from Pirlo, but Gimenez comes across to block the shot and concede a corner.

Uruguay still need to liven up if they'll get anywhere, and it almost happens now. Cavani shoots, it's blocked and Suarez picks it up. He takes it into the box and toes the shot early at goal, but Buffon gets down swiftly to knock it away. An important save.
