Commentator Martin Fisher introduces the Uruguay v England match with a bizarre and striking analogy. That quote again in full:
"Group D was quickly termed the 'Group of Death' when the draw was made in December. And after defeats in their openers, today's losers will effectively be on their way to hospital in an ambulance. A draw? Well, they'll both be in the doctor's waiting room with a particularly bad cough."
From the world feed on June 19, 2014. Martin talked about the difficulty (as an English commentator) of staying neutral during the game! See his comment after the match -
