World Cup 2010 (Day Seventeen)

Today, England and Germany play as the first match. Germany wins with 4:1. The second goal, which is truly goaled by Lampard in 38' becomes the controvertial. Before the match, it was windy and rain here and TV connection was often off and on. So, I did not have chance to watch well for the whole match.

The second match is played by Argentina and Mexico. Argentina wins with 3:1. The second goal of Argentina also becomes a controvertial one because of obvious position of offside of the Argentinian goal maker.

More great matches are ahead to watch. Thanks!

World Cup 2010 (Day Sixteen)

The first match of the last 16 is played by Uruguay and South Korea. Uruguay wins with 2:1 and going to the quarter final. (I did not watch this match because I had to go to work. I will critique later, after I watch these games back in my recorded tapes. Thanks.)

The second match of today is played between the United States and Ghana. I wanted the U.S. team to win, but, at the same time, I truly and heartly have my passion for Ghana, too, because they are only one African team to reach for this stage in the game, which hosted in African soil. By the way, the result is, Ghana wins with 2:1. I truly hope the national team of the United States will be much better in structure, training, and stretegy in coming years or in coming international games. The strong point of the U.S. team is the spirit. I feel that the players need to have better ball-control, position, and stretegic structure. Team of Ghana has better qualities in those things than we have. And yet, they are strong and quick in both of offensive and defensive. But you know what, we are one of the best teams in the world! We were one of the last sixteen! We supposed to be proud of it and congratulations all players of our national team!

Great games are ahead to watch. Thanks everybody for everything!!!
