      Disgrace. Just as bad as Maradona's hand of God. Hope Holland give them a pasting.

      Gyan looks a good player. Must've taken some balls to step up and take the first penalty.

      I knew Abreu would do that, he plays for Botafogo (from Rio de Janeiro) and he always take penaltys the same way.

      Well done Uruguay, I wanted them to go out in the group stage but now Brazil are out of the competition I think I wouldnt mind seeing them lifting the trophy to be honest, it would be nice to have it back to South America (as long as its not Argentina).

      Destiny?

      Four years ago Alvaro Recoba said they had divine right to play in the world cup before they were beaten by Aussie. This year they seem to come to prove what they said then.

      Cheating b***ard.

      Feel sorry for Ghana, although if they put that pen away, then they would of gone through. Really is a game of fine margins.

      Cheating? Mmm..may be, obviously it was not on, but should he let it to become a goal without doing anything "legal" as far as the rule is concerned?

      He was given a straight red and then his team conceded a penalty. It was "fair" as far as the rules say...
      It was illegal but he was already punished. So, that's football.

      That's how I see the situation too. He didn't try to fake anything, it was just a desperate attempt.

      Like in NBA, teams foul the others to gain time every game. Fouling isn't legal, so they're punished. But it's tactics too.

      I felt bad for Gyan, least he got his second.

      What was it with those players having a tiny run up and then just scoring and then that ghana player did and missed.

      I bet Kev Prince was last.

      What a game!
      Happy for Uruguay they fought until the end, and that wasn't a cheat. Suarez  traded a goal for a pen and red card.

      The free-kick before the handball was a dive, that's cheating.

      I think hand balls like that on the line should be given as 'penalty goals' like penalty tries in rugby when an attacking scrum is deliberately collapsed near the try line. It was cheating and he got punished for it. Although not enough. Gutted for Ghana. Uruguay will get pummelled by Holland in the semis.
