FiFa World Cup Day 4

The 4th day of the Fifa world cup. As usual, I woke up at 7 to watch Japan vs Cameroon. It was fairly an entertaining game, though I expected a tie between these two countries.

Japan would eventually score, near the end of the first half, when a Japanese player calmly puts the ball pass the Cameroonian goalkeeper.

The second half, the Cameroonians pressured with attacks, rush after rush. However, nothing gone past the Japanese goalkeeper, as he made one last great save at the final minute of the game to destroy and hopes for the Cameroonian to get back into the game.

I ate breakfast after and then watch episode 15 of a Hong Kong drama, just before the 11:30 game where Italy takes on Paraguay.

That game was surprisingly entertaining. Paraguay ironically scored first, off a free kick and was headbutted in, no chance for Buffon. I was pretty much laughing, because the underdog scored first, and it was against one of the best goalkeeper in the world! So Paraguay finished the first half with a 1-0 lead.

The Italians pretty much took over the second half, with attacks after attacks. They managed to get the tying goal, off a corner kick, when the ball was tapped in after the Paraguayan missed the ball. Italy tried to look for the game winner, while the Paraguayans played defense. Italy and Paraguay finished the game all tied at 1.

Tomorrow, I'll be looking forward to watch my friend's Portugal play against Ivory Coast. Also game 6 between the Celtics and the Lakers!!
