Ghana get a second. Lovely ball by Ayew for Kudus.
Kudos to Kudus for that 'fanitest of touches'...
Fantastic ball in.
I’m liking Ghana.
I only learned last week the Ayew boys are sons of the great Abide Pele form the 90s!
Jordan Ayew playing very well. Koreans look poor up front. I know he missed a sitter last game but I'd have Ui-jo Hwang on for the second half. Son needs to step up as well.
Game on. Super ball by Kang-in Lee for Cho.
2-2! Cho again!
Another good game here.
2-2
Didn't even get a chance to comment on South Korea's first goal, before it's already 2-2. Great cross and header.
Two best games so far are today. This is what the World Cup is all about. Excitement!
Today is the day of comebacks!
They said the first celebration was muted the second sure as hell wasn't
This is set up nicely for a Son screamer to win it.
Kudus scores! Some game.
Quality finish
Ghana up
The last 10am & 1pm games have gone out with a bang
Oh Son hit it first time!
South Korea so close.
Mensa being clever there, running down the clock...
Hate that the WC is in November and in Qatar with no scantily clad babes in the crowd. We don't even have a thread on it here like in other years. Doesn't feel like the WC at all.
That was fun.
I feel sorry for South Korea. They deserved a point from that game.
Bento sent off at the end.
Fair play to Ghana. That's what you call a hard fought win. Great day of football so far. Hope it continues.
Corner should have been able to taken would be angry too. The manager sent off needs to be careful with continuing arguing
2 great games it seems when people are working, means tonight's game between Portugal and Uruguay will be just full of diving and play acting
Harsh but it was over the 10 mins, can't complain
Time was up. Time can only be added on for a penalty. I don’t like Taylor but he was correct there.
Fancy Vini Jr. to open his account against Switzerland. Don't think the game will be a goalfest like the earlier games but who knows. I'll say 2-0 Brazil.
All of these only from today!! Hats off all, especially “Loafing Oaf”
Pavlovian response to that ball into the box from big lad Pavlovic
Song can't get a tune out of this Cameroon team.
Kudos to Kudus for that 'faintest of touches'...
Keep it going !!
Oh I thought he could add time on for the injury during added time which was about 2 more minutes
He can. The time on the board is just the minimum amount to be played, but the ref can keep going at his discretion. Sure the ref in the Saudi Argentina game played an extra 3 or 4 minutes on top of the allotted added time.
Ref today could’ve allowed the corner of he wanted.
