World Cup Quarter Finals

Posted by Michael on Saturday 3rd July, 2010

Well yesterday saw the first 2 quater final games, and it was:

Netherlands 2 – 1 Brazil
Ghana 1 – 1 Uruguay (2 - 4 on pens)

Both were good games. Netherlands finished the game in control and were the stronger side, Brazil scored first, and then lost their cool. In their usual way, the brazilians threw their toys out of the pram, lead by Philipe Melo who got sent off, Michel Bastos also should of had a 2nd booking and went off.

Poor Poor Ghana. They were leading right on half time, Uruguay equalised, and it went to extra time. Ghana had a corner, the ball got headed towards goal twice, once it was blocked, the 2nd time Luis Suarez blocked it with his hands, got sent off and Ghana had a penalty in the 30th minute of Extra time. It was the last kick of the game, Asamoah Gyan stepped up…….And missed!!! What a shame it was, and what a disgrace from Uruguay cheating. The game went to penalties, Gyan stepped up again, and scored. Ghana went on to miss 2, with Uruguay only missing one, and going through to play Netherlands for a place in the final.

Today we have Germany vs Argentina, and later Spain vs Paraguay. I am hoping to see Germany and of course Spain win :)
