Ivory Coast vs Japan

[bksballer89]

Big 2nd match of Group C as whoever win would be in prime position to advance out of the group with Columbia. A draw makes this group really interesting

I love Honda ever since the last WC.

1-0 Japan

Sick goal by Honda.

Ivory Coast had their share of chances this half

I'm surprised to see Japan ahead but they've seemed to have more high quality shots so they deserve this lead.

Ivory Coast will find the back of the net before the night is done. Neither team can afford a L here

Yea you kind of have to expect it from the sheer number of shots. One of them is bound to touch the back of the net eventually.

This tournament is full of pretty header goals so far.

Ivory Coast found the back of the net...

Much better start to the tourney compared to South Africa 4 years ago

WOOOOAH

 

[bksballer89]

That escalated quickly.

8 games in an only 2 of the 16 teams have not scored a goal.....And they say soccer is boring

Been a great World Cup so far.

Awesome couple of minutes for Ivory Coast.

That guy on Japan definitely got bicycle kicked in the face. Ouch.

This was very similar to the Costa Rica/Uruguay game
