so the goalkeeper blocked the freaking penalty kick, but hasn't blocked any of these easy ones.
Granted, the PK was pretty easy.Quote:

Result we want from Germany v. Ghana: Germany win.
Gives us chance to clinch berth in Round of 16 tomorrow with a win against Portugal.
Interesting note from the Germany/Ghana game. It's the first ever World Cup game with two brothers on different teams.
Ghana is fighting hard this match. 33' and Ghana almost gets it with a rocket from beyond the box.
HT: Germany 0-0 Ghana
Hard-fought half of futbol right there. Someone is bound to break through in the second half.
How does that happen?Quote:

Oh yes...beautiful curve to clinch it in stoppage time. First time he's scored a World Cup goal with Argentina tied or losing.Quote:

That collision at the end was nasty. I've seen a few pretty bad injuries already this year.
Very, very physical world cup.Quote:

That's not true. Ghana and Germany were also in the same group last world cup and each brother was in the World Cup.Quote:
