I'm rooting for Paraguay now.

Paraguay model Larissa Riquelme does a Maradona, promises naked-run bid

I think the whole world would be rooting for paraguay over Argentina. Nobody wants to see Maradona running through the streets naked.

I'm sure Argentina is even torn.

Still 1-1 in the 2nd 15 minute extra time period. Penalty kicks are, dare I say, looming...

 

[dash]

Wow...Ghana gets a penalty kick to go through to the semi-finals. Red card for a hand ball on the goal line.

And the guy misses (rings it off the crossbar)

 

[puckhead]

holy fuck what a finish.
desperation hand-ball save.... and it pays off.

 

[mooger_35]

and he rattles the crossbar.

 

[dash]

Luckily, he plays for Ghana (and not Columbia)

Especually with this ball, you have to go low on the PK

 

[mooger_35]

PKs favour the team with the better keeper. And I give that nod to Ghana.

 

[pixburgher66]

i'd go low if i EVER took a PK. seriously, i'd rather make the goalie guess and make a miraculous save than miss the net/hit the bar. this could be heartbreak city in africa. love the penalties though! come oonnnnn ghana!

 

[mooger_35]

Save! Uh oh for Ghana

 

[dash]

Two consecutive misses...Riveting stuff.

 

[mooger_35]

And a miss.... Ghana back in it

 

[puckhead]

Manseh with a wtf weak ass kick,
and Uruguay respond with a row 37 special. that must suck
then advantage taken right back. nice save


edit.... cheeky chip ftw.

 

[ritari330]

HAHA chiped it in

 

[dash]

Lefty McManBoobs wedge puts Uruguay through...

 

[puckhead]

so, that last second hand-ball red card ends up winning the game.
amazing.

 

[mooger_35]

Wow. Ghana had it... and just fucked it up.
