Got it, but most of the time it looks like they have never done a counter attack before.

they did better in the 1st. but this half they have looked awful on the counters. they are also starting to fall asleep in the back now


on the attack when they have the ball already in the final 1/3, they are not good. i dont want them to advance cause of that.

this game has been very entertaining.... I hope Ghana pulls it out

7/2/2010 4:11:10 PM

dumb. shouldve passed it wide instead of going for glory


GET IN ASAMOAH! wtf...ghana are fine going into the shoot from a mile away mode

[Edited on July 2, 2010 at 4:13 PM. Reason : f]

7/2/2010 4:12:22 PM

Yep, they are really trying to test the keeper from distance.

7/2/2010 4:13:12 PM

i really don't think ghana has the stamina to play two 120 minute matches.

7/2/2010 4:13:57 PM

we will see their entire team go to the ground several times if this goes to extra time


how is the netherlands beating brazil a huge upset? are they not both top 5 teams in the world?

7/2/2010 4:15:28 PM

as nervous as kingson looks, i'd expect him to have the advantage in a PK shoot-out, should it come to that. he's had some great saves so far this tournament.


i can't say i have that much confidence in ghana's PK takers, though

ugh both teams have been sloppy on counters

[Edited on July 2, 2010 at 4:22 PM. Reason : yep garbage ghana cross]

7/2/2010 4:21:23 PM

EXTRA TIME

7/2/2010 4:23:31 PM

no way ghana survives this. break out the pickle juice. leg cramps for everyone.

7/2/2010 4:24:20 PM

Sometimes I wish they still did sudden death, I mean, the "golden goal"...

7/2/2010 4:27:34 PM

I think I read something that said more games went to PKs when the "Golden Goal" rule was used.

7/2/2010 4:32:48 PM

that makes sense. people play too conservative when you know that one mistake equals the end.



...and the first ghana play hits the ground....

7/2/2010 4:34:33 PM

here we go....

7/2/2010 4:36:53 PM

7/2/2010 4:37:16 PM

here's the thing about fair play. you're supposed to knock the ball out of bounds when a player is hurt.

but when players are embellishing, and going down in unsporting behavior, it's almost an inevitability that players will stop moving the ball out of play in order to police themselves. it's really sad to see a player act injured and then deny the opposing team a legitimate attacking opportunity because of their unsportsmanlike behavior.



this is exactly why i can't respect ghana. there's no way you can convince me that they are legitimately hurt. they did this against the US last week, they did it 4 years ago against the US, and they're doing it now.

That's why you rarely see teams in the EPL stop play when Drogba goes down.

7/2/2010 4:39:41 PM

haha

7/2/2010 4:40:31 PM

yaaaawwn. i hate extra time

7/2/2010 4:48:46 PM

10 min to PKs unless someone makes a mistake

7/2/2010 4:51:22 PM

forlan came close to winning it. i want to see a winner. no PKs please

7/2/2010 4:55:25 PM

HOOOLY SHIT!

7/2/2010 5:01:16 PM

they better not score off that obvious dive here

7/2/2010 5:01:19 PM

wow wtf has ghana done to get this lucky? this shouldnt even be happening

7/2/2010 5:02:19 PM

ooooooohhhhh choke of the tournament

7/2/2010 5:02:21 PM

GREATEST HAND BALL IN THE HISTORY OF HAND BALLS

7/2/2010 5:02:27 PM

total bs

ghana won that shit

7/2/2010 5:02:30 PM

Thank you god of the woodworking.

7/2/2010 5:02:31 PM

worth the red card, if you're suarez

7/2/2010 5:02:44 PM

ahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

7/2/2010 5:02:45 PM

Hand of God might have been a bigger handball.

7/2/2010 5:03:20 PM

ghana did not win this shit. that free kick they got out wide was BS since the player dove to win that foul

7/2/2010 5:03:24 PM

i still say that nigeria dude w/o a goalkeeper in front of him from 7 feet out was the choke of the tournament ... but of course this was for the game

7/2/2010 5:03:24 PM

yeah, suarez really had no choice there, but they're gonna be screwed if they win this one. both him and fucile are out

7/2/2010 5:03:45 PM

ahahaha wow. im sorry this is the choke of the tournament. you have a free chance at winning the game. theres is no time left at all. and he doesnt even put it on frame

7/2/2010 5:04:26 PM

lol at that last sequence of events

7/2/2010 5:05:14 PM

hahaha. suarez might have just gotten man of the match, with that one

7/2/2010 5:05:19 PM

he took no time setting it up, just ran up, which could have been either "catching the goalie off guard" or "rushing it"

i think we know how history will see it

7/2/2010 5:05:55 PM

this was worth the near 120 minutes i couldve easily taken a nap

7/2/2010 5:05:57 PM

shit yakubu was like 3 feet away from the goal and wanked it



sucks suarez wont play next game if they win but hey if he doesnt do that they lose.

7/2/2010 5:06:07 PM

fuck

7/2/2010 5:06:56 PM

suarez wins the golden hand

7/2/2010 5:07:09 PM

hahaha 2nd most infamous hand of god in this tournament

7/2/2010 5:07:10 PM

suarez taking a red card for his country. haha. oh man. surely uruguay has to win this in PK's

7/2/2010 5:07:38 PM
