FORTALEZA, Brazil -- Watching from the bench, Luis Suarez saw just how much his teammates miss him. Uruguay was overrun 3-1 Friday by Group D underdog Costa Rica at the World Cup, a stunning result for the team that reached the semifinals four years ago and had every reason to think it could repeat that in Brazil. Even with Suarez staying on the bench for the entire game after failing to fully recover from knee surgery, coach Oscar Tabarez fielded a side that included eight players from the 2010 team. But after going ahead through a first-half penalty, Uruguay was taken apart on counterattacks as Costa Rica scored three times in the second half to open Group D with a major upset. "We made mistakes today that we havent made for a long time. Its too early to explain this," Tabarez said. "Football means that sometimes you have to lose. You cant lose heart, you just have to improve." The Uruguayans took the lead in the 24th minute when Edinson Cavani converted a spot kick that was awarded after captain Diego Lugano tumbled to the ground with defender Junior Diaz tugging at his waist. But after the goal, Uruguay lost the initiative and Costa Rica -- seen as a massive underdog in a group that also includes England and Italy -- fought back after the break. Costa Ricas lone striker Joel Campbell led most of the teams counterattacks and finally delivered the equalizer in the 54th, driving in a ball headed down by Celso Borges to beat goalkeeper Fernando Muslera. Oscar Duarte dived past the outstretched foot of Uruguays Cristian Stuani to head in the winner for the Central Americans, and substitute Marcos Urena added the third with six minutes left, catching out Muslera to slot the ball in from a tight angle. "We spotted that they had weaknesses and we looked at those. We worked hard on headers and ways to dominate in the air and we did that tonight," Costa Rica coach Jorge Luis Pinto said. The disastrous night in injury time when Maxi Pereira was sent off for a clumsy foul on Campbell. Pereira will be suspended from the next game against England, while Tabarez said Suarezs participation for next Thursdays match in Sao Paolo is also uncertain. Diego Forlan, the player of the tournament in 2010, took Suarezs place in attack. But in Fortaleza, the 35-year-old forward only displayed a single flash of his former greatness: Curling a deadly ball toward the Costa Rican a minute before halftime, in an effort punched out by in-form keeper Keylor Navas. Forlan was eventually substituted on the hour for Nicolas Lodeiro. Even without Suarez, the team doesnt need a tactical overhaul to bounce back from the defeat, Tabarez said. "Weve being playing this way for eight years. I dont see why we should do anything different right know," he said. "It worked in South Africa and after that. Defence is not a dirty word." Pinto, the Costa Rica coach, was less philosophical. "What counted is that we stayed calm and kept creating opportunities against a very tough team," Pinto said. "We have great respect for Uruguay but we werent that impressed tonight." ------ Lineups Uruguay: Fernando Muslera, Diego Lugano, Diego Godin, Walter Gargano (Alvaro Gonzalez, 60), Cristian Rodriguez, Diego Forlan (Nicolas Lodeiro, 60), Cristian Stuani, Maxi Pereira, Egidio Arevalo, Edinson Cavani, Martin Caceres.

I think that particular statistic usually leads to winning football games.As far as the other thing, obviously, youre just trying to win this football game, Manning said. But when asked about it, I have reflected on how many great teammates and coaches that Ive been with along the way that have been a part of that. You dont throw that many touchdowns without a lot of help.Its not just the 44 players who have caught one of Mannings TD throws, but the rest of his teammates and coaches.As my old centre Jeff Saturday said, the only reason Ive thrown that many is because I had great protection for so many years. Typical lineman speaking, especially one in the media now, Manning said. But to tell you the truth, hes right. There are so many people that have helped me along the way.Hell face men who made big early impressions on him Sunday when the Denver Broncos (2-1) host Arizona (3-0).Cardinals coach Bruce Arians was Mannings first quarterback coach when Manning arrived in the NFL in 1998. And Arizonas assistant head coach Tom Moore was his offensive co-ordinator during his 13 seasons in Indianapolis.The Cardinals would love to delay Mannings milestone another week, but they know as well as anyone that its probably just wishful thinking.Thats tough because Peyton always finds a way to get the ball in the end zone, Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson said.The last time Manning didnt throw a TD pass was Nov. 14, 2010, against Cincinnati.So, chances are No. 500 will come sometime Sunday.Hell probably brush it off like its just another touchdown, Denver nose tackle Terrance Knighton said. But I know it means a lot to him.And chances are Mannings touchstone touchdownn wont come down in the arms of a receiver, either.ddddddddddddight ends Julius Thomas (five) and Jacob Tamme (two) have accounted for all but one of Mannings eight TD tosses this season.Newcomer Emmanuel Sanders went into the Broncos bye last week as the league leader in catches (25) and yards (334), yet he still waiting to spike a TD toss from him a€” unlike Denver defensive tackle Mitch Unrein.Its still kind of a shock to me that I have a touchdown from Peyton, Unrein said.Sanders cant wait to join the list.With 14 catches so far, Thomas jokingly asked Sanders on Wednesday if he could spare a reception.All right, Sanders retorted. Ill trade you for a touchdown.Thomas said Sanders can have No. 500 if he wants it.Ive already got a couple milestones, said Thomas, who caught Mannings 51st TD throw that broke Tom Bradys single-season record last year. It was one of his dozen TD receptions that surpassed Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpes team record for tight ends.I hope they throw it to me, said Knighton, noting that a jelly-belly lineman a few lockers down caught one.Unrein lined up at fullback on Dec. 2, 2012, slipped into the left flat unencumbered on first-and-goal from the 1 and hauled in Mannings floater to help the Broncos beat Tampa Bay 31-23.Manning has thrown 100 TD passes in the regular season since his arrival in Denver.His first in a Broncos uniform was the 400th of his career and it came on a 71-yard screen pass to Demaryius Thomas.Manning figures to surpass Favres record of 508 TD throws later this month.Behind them are Dan Marino (420), Drew Brees (370), Brady (363), Fran Tarkenton (342) and John Elway (300).Told he has nearly 200 more TD passes than his boss, Manning said: He probably has a few more rushing touchdowns that I do.Elway has 33 of those, Manning, 18.Notes: LB Lerentee McCray (knee) practiced for the first time since getting hurt against Kansas City on Sept. 14. That left S David Bruton (ankle) as the only player who didnt practice. RG Louis Vasquez (ribcage) was limited. ...
