England goes after consecutive loss.
Final Score
Uruguay 2-England 1(Rooney74')
Suarez 39', 80'.
England again going home after two 2-1 defeats. Also, this could be the last game for Rooney scored for the first time in World cup, which could be his last too. This would be the last time we see Gerrard also in the English jersey.
England started positively with constant attacks and good possession in the do or die match. They retained their last match line up. Rooney and Sturridge came forward to make Uruguay defenders feel the high pressure game. But, Sterling, who showed outstanding show in the match against Italy was just a shade. Even with 40% ball possession, Urugauy got more corners in the first 30 min. Rooney's free kick was very close but went out in the 8'. Rooney headed a free kick on to the bar from just under it, in the 30'. Suarez, who went through a surgery just 4 days ago, was a surprise addition to the playing eleven. Still, he scored the goal in the 39'. He just ensured the ball passes back Joe Hart with a header push from Cavani's cross.
England, who equalised with in 2 minutes against Italy, came up with good moves and won 4 corners conservatively. But, goal stayed away.
Cavani got the first real chance after the break. Lodeiro pushed a ball through English defenders and Cavani was one on one with Hart. But, Cavani couldn't find the target. Rooney hit a scoring chance directly on Musleri. Also, Welbeck couldn't reach a brilliant cross from Baines. Perreiera showed real spirit when he was down on ground after a collision with Sterling. Sterling's knee hit Perreira's head. He was not moving for a while. Team officials ran towards him. When he stood up, doctor and coach asked for replacing him. But, he argued that he wants to continue and went on playing.
Rooney scored his first ever world cup match in the 74'. Sturridge came forward with the ball and passed to Johnson, who ran into the box and crossed it to Rooney. Rooney had nothing much to do than tapping it to goal.
England went on with attacks to survive in the tournament. Suarez scored against the run of play in the 77', to seal the match. The goal kick was deep into England area, Cavani and Gerrard went for the ball. But, ball reached Suarez, from Gerrard's head. He controlled with a touch and finished powerfully.
After that, England could reach goal, even with continuous attacks. They became first dead from the death group.
