Today was officially the start of the Round of 16 elimination match of the Fifa world cup! I woke up at 8am to watch the second half between South Korea and Uruguay. It was 1-0 Uruguay when I opened the TV.
South Korea would tie the game, off a header and the game evens at 1. At the 80th minute, Uruguay took the lead by scoring a beautiful goal, off the post and in, and Uruguay would beat South Korea by a score of 2-1.
After that, I went back to sleep for another 2.5 hours before waking up, to eat breakfast and watched the USA vs Ghana match.
Ghana opened the scoring early off an American turnover. Ghana led 1-0 after the first half. In the second half Ghana fouled an American player inside their zone and the Americans were gifted a penalty shot, eventually tieing the game at 1.
The Americans pressed and pressed, but couldn't score. The game would need extra time to solve. In the first half of the extra time, Ghana scored and led 2-1. This eventually became the final score as Ghana moves on to face Uruguay.
After the game, I did nothing except chatting on MSN and was also looking at some college stuff, before my dad came back at 6:30pm and took me out for dinner.
