Germany had looked unstoppable after their 4-1 win against Argentina, but they
found a much tougher opposition in Spain. This game was a real nail biter and
it stayed goalless right up to the seventy-third minute when Spain managed to
head the ball into the German net. Spain managed to have Germany on the
back foot for much of the game, but it wasn't the best performance from either
side in the competition. It has been a long few weeks so maybe players now feel
exhausted; hopefully Germany will still have enough left to claim third place.
Uruguay were up against the Netherlands in their semi- encounter. The team had
needed to fight to the bone in their encounter in the quarter finals against Ghana
and they needed to do the same against Holland. The Dutch managed to open up the
scoring at the eighteenth minute but Uruguay managed to equalise before
half time with a goal from Diego Forlan. In the second half the Dutch was able
to score twice more before Uruguay managed to hit the back of the opposition net
in extra time; final score 3-2.
This third place play-off between Uruguay and Germany is sure to be a riveting
encounter so make sure that you don't miss out. Join us here on action8cricket.com
