World Cup Daily Wrap: June 28, 2010

The third day of the knockout round saw two nations with rich World Cup tradition against two underdogs trying to make a name for themselves in this World Cup. In the first game of the day, Holland took on Slovakia. The already strong Netherlands squad was given an added bonus when midfielder Arjen Robben was named in the starting lineup, and quickly he made his prescence felt. In the 18th minute, Wesley Sneijder sent a long ball from the Dutch's own half of the field right into the path of the run of Robben.

World Cup Daily Wrap: June 27, 2010

On the second day of the knockout stage, two huge referee errors marred the outcomes of two highly anticipated games. In the first game of the day, Germany took on arch rival England. The Germans quickly got out to a 2-0 lead in the first half, with goals from Miroslav Klose (20th minute) and Lukas Podolski (32nd minute), the longtime strike partners. However the British refused to give up, and cut the deficit in half with a header goal from defender Matthew Upson (37th minute). Just minutes later, Frank Lampard's long shot crossed the goal line after hitting the bottom of the crossbar, but the backspin on the ball forced it back towards the field of play, and the referee and his linesman did not realize the fact that the rest of the world knew, that the ball had crossed the plane of the goal line and was a clear goal. The English had to settle for going into the 2nd half with a 2-1 deficit, and because they were pushing forward so much, the Germans were able to capitalize well on the counter attack, and within three minutes, Thomas Muller scored twice to make it a 4-1 game and send England crashing out of the World Cup. "We are very satisfied," said Germany coach Joachim Low.
