    Ukraine and Switzerland are giving eachother a run for the money. Neither team will win the Cup of course, but for both of them, reaching the quarter finals will be a big success.

      But I have to admit that from this point of view, there's no way the Australian could have gotten the ball.
      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

            People of Australia: you played a damn good match, but let me tell you something. Don't do fouls against a team playing with a man down, with 20 seconds of play left before the ET, inside the damn PENALTY AREA

              Wow... some exciting play at the end of the 2nd OT in the Swiss-Ukraine match. Both teams are tired as Hell but still attacking.

                  What a crappy PK attempt by the Swiss dude.

                    Holy crap, Switzerland miss their 1st THREE PK attempts. Two bad attempts and one hitting the bar.

                      UKRAINE WINS!!!

                      3 PKs to 0. They'll face the Italians!

                      Shame there had to be a loser. Switzerland played well.

                        I don't recall to have seen a penalty shoot out, where one of the teams fails to score a single time. Ever.

                          Damn, that was a snoozefest

                          The penalties were a good laugh though, that made my evening. And I thought we sucked at them

                            Especially when the other side missed their first.

                            Congratulations Switzerland on the most spectacular piece of collective choking in a World Cup.

                              Hmm - that's a rare one. Switzerland went out of the World Cup, without having conceeded a single goal

                                This was by the way one of the most boring games I ever saw. I watched the whole damn 90 minutes, falling asleep a dozen times. But I could not take the OT anymore. My wife called me back for the penalty shoot out, which was entertaining, to say the least.
