Oh my holy god. What a game.

 

wow, so many chances for the US. And they FINALLY capitalize at the last second.

Good follow through by Donovan to catch that rebound.

 

The capitalized AFTER the last second. From utter failure to the top of the group. Way to finish.

 

On the flip side Slovenia went from top of the group to out, just that quickly

And if Slovenia scores - England is out. I think Algeria could have made it too, right? If they had won by 2 or 3 goals, no?

 

Great finish.

England Beats Slovenia 1-0; Advances To Next Round

England blew opportunity after opportunity. I was literally laughing that a team loaded with that much talent could miss so many open shots. Wayne Rooney: What has happened to this man? He's been a mouse since the opening match. Zero goals for the lead striker.

 

Jermain Defoe's goal in the 23rd minute off a beautiful cross from James Millner proved to be the decider.

Germany Beats Ghana 1-0; Wins Group

great strike from Ozil..Lahm also did a great job of getting back to block the shot on the goalline in the 26th minute, bailing the keeper out. Because Australia beat Serbia 2-1, Ghana will also advance due to goal differential. Ghana is the only African nation to make it out of their group.

Australia Scores 2 Goals In 4 Minutes To Beat Serbia 2-1

Serbia had their chances in the first half. just couldn't finish...Even though Australia won, they will not advance due to them giving up 4 more goals than Ghana (Ghana and Serbia both had 4 points, so it came down to goal differential). A draw would have seen the Serbs advance.

 

But the referee missed what should have been handball by the Aussies in their own penalty box off a corner kick in the 90th minute. This should have been an automatic penalty kick for Serbia.

Slovakia Stuns Reigning Champs Italy 3-2

Slovakia engineered one of the greatest football victories in the World Cup by taking down reigning world champions Italy. Until the last 20 minutes Italy looked lethargic and undeserving of even being there. Slovakia played with heart. You could see it on their faces. What a block by Martin Skrtel on his own goalline in the 66th minute to deny Italy the draw!

 

Italy fails to advance out of their group for the first time since 1974.
