World Cup "coverage" (i.e. spam)

[shusu]

It's the big day!  Australia v. Japan, Czech Republic v. USA.

The timezones, alas, are not our friends.  People could be missing cool details, so... spoiler comments go here.  Have fun, play nice. ^^

Ghana is getting some great shots on goal. And missing them.

Goal Italy! 40th min through traffic.

I should note that both teams are drenched in sweat, and you can really see it under the lights, unlike the earlier games.

I really wish I could actually hear/see this game. It looks like it's a pretty exciting one.

Oh, thats such a shame. If your in Europe, you will be able to get easy access, well here in England, we got the BBC for coverage. At least you can serch for the Radio in the BBC website which gives you live commentray.
Anyway, the game just finished with Italy winning 2-0, I saw the first goal by Pirlo and the second was by a subsutite. Really, this game just showed the lack of competeness when it comes to defending from the Ghana side. They had great chances which they somehow messed up (it had a sense of deja vu of the Japan games earlier this afternoon) and whenever the Italians got a chance they showed what a threat they were, and put the goal behind the net. If you watched the game what you would see is Italy missing some chances, but it just showed that by always going foward and pushing the opposition, your bound to get a goal. Nice match, not as great as the Czech game but then again different people have different tastes.

There was a very pretty Italian pile-up after the open-goal shot.

And if you're going for hurt/comfort, a lot of awful writhing Italian injuries.

Ghana made a good show... they just missed all their shots.

Dodgy calls all around.
