Little Goals, Many Red Cards

So many
Red Cards...4 to be exact (it's a lot you know...). Italy got one sent off, USA got two sent off. So violent one, I heard it was a fiery affair. Anyway Italy drew with the USA, Italy should go through and USA still have a chance of going through if they win Ghana on the last day and hope the Czech Republic lose.
Czech Republic were stunned by Ghana. Ghana won with two goals. The first in the 2nd minute. Only Grygera touched the ball to concede the corner.
LOL! Ghana had a penalty and Czech got their star defender sent off...another
Red Card. But the Ghana player crashed the ball against the post! Petr Cech is a lucky guy, not so lucky later when Ghana added a second to crush the Czech. Woot! Ghana just opened up the group and now even Italy might miss out on qualification. Petr Cech...What happened to him?
Portugal got a convincing win over Angola to seal their place in the last sixteen after Mexico draw the day before. Deco returned and was inspirational in the win, he scored one and Cristiano Ronaldo added a second with a penalty, lucky not crashing the ball against the bar!
