    I can see the Polish crowd rallying behind Ukraine on their next match.
    It will be a good one.

    Of the 8 quarter-finalists, only Ecuador and Ukraine never made it to the Final Four.
    Today, Ukraine got a bit closer for making football history.
    It will be great if Ecuador follows suit tomorrow.

    Their problems were of their own making, not really Italy.

    True, but Italy played better although it might have been a different if it had been 11 against 11 for 90 minutes.

    Taking advantage of the other team's mistakes is as much a skill as any other...

    Congrats to the South American Champs on their win and first time in the Semis. They deserve it.

    Very interesting picture is forming for the semifinals. Let's see what happens between South Korea and Senegal...

    The final will be Italy-Ecuador, I'm pretty sure.

    Very tactically tough match so far. 0-0 at halftime and no one seems to want to risk anything.
    Hope there is a goal to spicen things up a bit but it looks bleak unless there is a penalty or cheap goal off a mistake.

    This game may be decided by one goal. I can't believe the two sides have only combined for two shots on target so far...

    Italy looking more dangerous in this half but still 0-0.

    A lot of physical play here. I like it. True European football.

    Second yellow for Popov.
    Things just got a bit more interesting.

    That's a big loss. Popov was, by far, our best defender out there.

    We, certainly got helped out by the whistle there. I suppose, the contact from hand to face did happen.

    Congrats to Ukraine.
    Into the Final.

    Not the most aesthetically pleasing team to watch for us neutrals but effective.
