It has been revealed that the physio who managed to get Luis Suarez from wheelchair to match-winner in less than a month was being treated for cancer at the same time.
Suarez had surgery on meniscus damage in his knee on May 22, and four weeks to the day he miraculously returned to score both Uruguay's goals in their 2-1 win over England on Thursday.
The striker ran straight over to the bench to celebrate with Walter Ferreira after scoring his for goal, and now the sacrifices the physio made to help the player have come to light.
Ferreira, 62, was in the final stages of chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma cancer when he began working with Suarez, with his final course completed three weeks ago before doctors gave him permission to fly out to Brazil with the Uruguay squad. ...
Now Ferreira, who has been given the all-clear but still has a low white blood cell count, is being treated as a superstar back in his homeland.
Ooh, a dagger through my heart!
Portugal levels in the 5th minute of stoppage time.
However, the US is still in a very good position to advance. If the US earns a point against Germany or if Ghana beats or draws Portugal, the US is through. If Portugal beats Ghana and the US loses to Germany, then it comes down to goal difference with Portugal. Currently, the US is +5 over Portugal. Thus, as long as the US doesn't get blown out by Germany, we will advance.
They will get better from here too!

What makes you think that when they still haven't done anything in 84 years and their uber-coach, who was brought in 4 years ago still can't get them to play at a high level at BOTH ends of the field? They'll be going home after Thursday and this tournament still shows me they can't get it done when it matters.
Disgusting performance for the second game in a row by the US. They couldn't hold a lead in either game. Brooks bailed them out against Ghana but no such luck tonight. Hopefully Germany slaughters them on Thursday and they get shown the door as they deserve. The only bad thing is that their record will still show 1-1-1 and look reasonable to those who don't know better.

Beat Ghana and the #4 team in the world had to score a last second goal to tie....that's pretty fucking good in my book

My biggest concern is that team that come back from Manaus are drained. They need to spend some time in a hyperbaric chamber soon
