Live Blogging the World Cup: Uruguay 2-1 England

11:30: We're starting the preparations early today - a good 4 and half hours before kick-off. There's still time to get the braai going.

13:45: The moment you have been waiting for! The line-ups have been revealed.

14:17: Some interesting stats you might not have known

15:00: One more hour to go!

15:15: While you're waiting, why not check out all the highlights of the early kick off of the day?

15:40: Glenn Hoddle just said someone was "head and shoulders" above the rest - I missed who he was talking about...

15:55: Aaah! My favourite part during any Uruguay match, the singing of the national anthem. That intro!

15:59 ...and who do we have in the stands? Zlatan the man himself! How we would love to see him play.

16:00: KICK OFF!

16:08: Handball by Godin just outside the box - a yellow for the skipper and a free kick in a promising position!

16:12: In case you were wondering where the Spurs wonder-boy, Townsend, might be doing at this moment.

16:15: Jagielka almost gifts Rodriguez one, but it rises just over the bar. It's a tight affair so far.

16:18: Gerrard forgets who he's playing for and gets the corner straight to Suárez. Oh.

16:25: Don't worry, we're still here! When there's something notable, you'll hear about it!

16:28: Godin gets away with one there, taking out Sturridge - very lucky not to have received his second yellow.

16:30: Rooney...how close was that? He hits the bar!

16:36: Sturridge blasts it into Row Z. Good stuff.

16:38: GOOOOAL! Suarez!

16:56: OT - apparently these will be Neymar's new pair of boots for the rest of the competition.

17:00: The floodlights have been lit and the second half commences

17:05: Suarez takes the corner, and it almost catches Hart off guard and sneaks in!

17:07: England are all over the place, this time Cavani misses a big chance.

17:09: What does Rooney have to do to score a World Cup goal?

17:16: That did not look nice, Sterling unintentionally knees Pereira in the side of his head.

17:22: OT - Rihanna, pop megastar and part time pundit?

17:25: England beginning to pile on the pressure, but can they get that equaliser.

17:31: ROONEY!!!! 1-1

17:31: Oh Sturridge on his weaker foot couldn't wrap his foot around that. So close!

17:37: Great defence from Cahill! The Uruguyans are looking for a response. Are they regretting those missed chances? Certainly so!

17:38:England, and Rooney, have the answers for Rihanna then...

17:41: They have a response...SUAREZ!

17:42: The American perspective on the game...

17:44: Regardless of what happens in the game, at least we'll always have the Google Doodle.

17:49: Has Gerrard given up?

17:53: England fans right now.

18:02: We still have Japan vs Greece to play tonight but I'm sure not many of the English will be keen on watching this one.

18:08: I've done this before, but I think we should let Boring Milner close this one out...
