‘Uruguay were a DISGRACE!’ Why are Spain struggling at the 2026 World Cup? | ESPN FC

Uruguay goalkeeper played a huge part in their elimination, not just in today’s match but in all 3 matches

Knock out games are a different kettle of fish. You'll see who the favourites then.

No one has mentioned the elevation in Guadalajara, where the Spain match was played. It’s 5000 feet above sea level. You try running at pace at that elevation

Lamine Yamal is the youngest player to lose possession 5+ in a World Cup group stage game.

If Spain plays Netherlands, they will lose by multiple goals.

Round of 32,16,8,4 and 2 are the real test

So nice to see Uruguay go home 🙂

Uruguay was so disappointing. Spain, even with Yamal, does not look that scary at all.

Every WC match so far I have seen this ref whistle looked more like a rugby match. It's a disgrace Canobbio wasn't kicked off much early. This guy need to get a drug test ASAP also, looked like to be coked up.

Man... i was one of those who thought that Spain was a big contender next to France. But boy... i was wrong 😂😂😂 that team is dead, 0 urgency, slow pace, and the midfield... that midfield is very suspect, Rodri is done after that injury, Pedri been poor since the last 2 months of La Liga and he carry that form to the world cup so, Spain will be very lucky if they reach the quarter finals.
