FIFA World Cup So Far
Well, the last two weeks could not have been a better time for me to be at home! World Cup 2006 is on and its awesome! Almost every match is exciting, even yesterday's no-card, no-goal Ukraine-Switzerland which was decided by penalty shots. "Sasha", my "tezka" saved the day by saving all penalty shots against him. What a goalie! He remindes me of Chanov, possibly one of the greatest goalies ever to lead Dinamo Kiev from the back.
Special mention has to be given to Ghana for the way they played with extreme enthusiasm and lightning break-aways to create scoring chances. Unfortunately for them, Brazil was a little too much to handle today and red card to Gyan in the very end sealed possibility of advencement. One more match today, Spain-France will play Brazil and 2 days of rest before the quarterfinals!
