1) Ecuador vs Costa Rica, 3 - 0

Important match for Poland in case Costa Rica. After watching Costa Rica and Germany, I thought that Costa Rica wasn't all that bad.

Is Ecuador that good?

I'm rooting for Ecuador to beat Germany. Be weird if they're better, I'm usually rooting for the so-called weaker teams.

But I'll admit I didn't catch much. During the first half, I fell asleep a lot. And I only caught bits and pieces of the last ten minutes. By then CR seemed like they had already given up. But I dunoe, I think they should think of Australia. The team who gives up striking loses, in my opinion. Australia was trailing 1 - 0 and they went and went like a rocket, as if they just wouldn't let it go. and it paid off. as if they couldn't stand the humiliation. if you ask me, you should just go and go at it like a rocket. don't be too overwhelmed by the striking, you can strike too. Try!

Like Poland. Just trying to keep it 0 - 0 - it's not a winner's strategy. it may be a strategy, maybe one of desperation, but mentally it's almost like giving up. And giving up is no winner's strategy.

Third goal was during injury time. I believe that CR just gave up during the last portions. Didn't catch enough of Ecuador but judging from the glowing comments, they are great. Look forward to the the Germany - Ecuador match, people!

Till then.
