finally

A team I was cheering for actually won! Well, not quite, but the US tied Italy in an almost surreal match.

On another note, I can't stand the rank, patronizing artitude of English commentators towards Ghana, Cote d’Ivoir, etc. “Oh, the African team can be proud of themselves. They’ve played with much courage and energy, but in the end they were outclassed by [European team X]’s superior skill.” Oh, those brave, brave Zulu warriors!
