Heart-breaker for Australia
Crushing defeat for Australia with a penaly shot for Italy ending the game. Rarely have I seen the very last play of a soccer match be a penalty kick. In this case, it was a questionable call at best. This is something that soccer needs to look at. They should do something about flopping and diving. They give out yellow cards now for diving and have cleaned things up a lot compared to 15 years back. But still it's very hard to officiate a soccer game. You never know whats a flop, whats a hard tackle, whats incidental contact, whats a yellow card etc. I am almost tempted to recommend instant replay !
Enough of my rant. Enjoy the videos.
Video 1 - Italy (1 - 0) Australia - Italy wins on a questionable penalty.
Video 2 - Portugal (1 - 0) Netherlands - Maniche comes saves the day for Portugal.
Can somebody explain to me how Switzerland does not event score a single goal in the penalty shootout against Ukraine? I don't think that game deserves any video highlights here. Instead, enjoy some spectacular goals by Maniche from the past.
Video 3 - Maniche in the Portugal league - This goal is ridiculous
Video 4 - Maniche against Netherlands again in Euro 2004 - Scorcher!
