OT: World Cup Begins

[naslundfan19]

The one player was offside, but didn't touch the ball. The other Paraguay player who played the ball was onside. Tough call for the linesman, though.

Yeah, tough call. Sure have been a lot of those thus far

Yeah, hopefully FIFA doesn't back down and brings in instant replay and/or goal line technology to ensure the proper call is made.

Goal line technology at the least, please.

 

[naslundfan19]

Oh my!

 

[naslundfan19]

This is nuts!

Oh boy...Paraguay gets a Pk, saved by the Spanish keeper. Now Spain scores on a penalty kick, but the ref says it must be taken again.

 

[naslundfan19]

Oh...my...goodness!

 

[dash]

Wow...Crazy stuff. Second penalty kick saved. Still tied 0-0

 

[naslundfan19]

Uruguay-Ghana redux?

 

[naslundfan19]

Pinballs to Villa, who pinballs it in. 1-0 Espana.

The woodwork is still shaking. David Villa scores again and rescues Spain.

 

[naslundfan19]

Dude, you elbowed him in the head. Nothing to argue.

 

[naslundfan19]

Casillas with 2 nice saves. Remains 1-0.

 

[naslundfan19]

That's gotta sting

The Spanish Armada is through and the semi-finals are set...

 

[naslundfan19]

That Spain-Germany tilt Wednesday ought to be a doozy!
