I bet I am the only person on the phone at work while my wife (who is working at home) gives me the play by play.
Come on Korea!!! Do it for Guus!
A red for Totti!!
I’m on my own in this house, supposedly working my arse off for tomorrow’s writing deadline, wearing my SO’s Italian replica shirt and screaming like mad.
I hate to think how grumpy he’ll be if Italy lose. And he’s not even Italian. And neither am I. What am we thinking of? I think it’s sort of displacement support, to stop us thinking too much about our quarter final on Friday. Actually I think we’ll tank Brazil.
I HATE GOLDEN GOAL, by the way. It’s just not football. Hate it, hate it, hate it.
aaaaaahh!
what a save from the Korean keeper!
Oh pilsung Korea!
Dae Han Min Guk!
AAAAAAAIIEE!
Korea have won it.
Cracking goal, though. And the lad who scored it (Ahn Jung-Hwan) was quite cute, too. He looks completely gob smacked by what he’s done.
But I’m titted off that Italy are out.
Wow, I have chills, and I’m only following via the internet. Can’t wait to see the game on tape tonight. What a great result for Korea and Asian football! As nuts as it was there after the victory over Portugal, it’s got to be unimaginable tonight across their country. And they have exceeded Japan’s result which will just make them crazier.
Hee!
I’m not sure whether Totti’s second yellow was deserved or not – I really couldn’t say from the coverage. And the offside decision was shaky at best.
Well done South Korea!!
Well thank you Korea for pulling the US thru. Good show and i hope we can meet in the semis in seoul.
I watched extra time and the atmosphere in the stadium was unbelievable.
Ain’t it just the Cup Of Upsets this year?
WHAT A STUNT!!
“Hiddink for President”, indeed.
OK, so they’ve already promised Hiddink a statue in Seoul. A Dutch comedian on TV this weekend: “He’s getting a statue for one win in the group round. What’s gonna happen if South Korea win the tournament outright? I think they’re gonna invade North Korea, clear it out, and give it to him as a private estate.”
Hey any one think that Totti’s second yellow was completely undeserved? The replays I say looked like a completely bad call. Just curious
Unbelievable. Not sure about that card either, but it’s done now.
What a boilover
It looked undeserved to me, but I’m American, what do I know. The Korean did get the ball, he did put his leg over totti’s thigh when he was running, and Totti who had a decent run with the ball had been out there for one hour 40 minutes-hell I’d go down to.
But when you try to play defense for 70 minutes after playing well for 20, it’s bound to happen.
How exciting!
Can you IMAGINE what it’s like in South Korea right now?
World Cup 2002 - Attack of the Chihuahuas!
Wow! What a match. And what a World Cup this is turning out to be… Now I won’t be surprised if we see Senegal v S Korea in the final.
That card was definitely undeserved, and if I was Italian I’d be quite peeved at the referees. They’ve had some appalling decisions against them. I mean, that ref was 40 yards away! How can you call something like that in extra time.
- Salil.
Wow, congratulations to the Korean team!
