Italy 1 - Australia 0: the Aussies played well.  Very well.  They only lacked luck and finishing.  And then the referee stabbed them all in the back with a phantom penalty call in the last 30 seconds of the game.

Ukraine 0 - Switzerland 0 (3-0 PKs): Couldn't watch it due to actual work being done.  Sounds like the Swiss are the Shaqs of soccer.  Italy-Ukraine should actually be duller than England-Portugal.  This Cup is really not taking a good shape.

When the Ukraine-Switzerland game reached penalties, the radio commentator said, "Well, the crowd will finally get some excitement." To quote a friend, "Fuck these two - their quarter final place should be given to the Dutch."

Today's games have to be better.
