the players in this match for the most part have jumped up after injuries. nice play there by barnetta.

ukraine lad had the swiss guy in a headlock, well defended by magnin. Should we just do penalties, swiss are too neutral the ukraine kit is one of the worst I have seen. And we're into Extra Time here.

0-0 HT

sub for swiss. djourou off for grichting, a new defender to mark Schevchenko.

Sensible reffing so far.. I think that if a player goes down a tackle and over exaggerates they should be kept off the pitch for 3 mins. no swan dives, no triple axel somersaults. Both the swiss and ukrainians are so far jumping up after tackles, no rolling. admirable. Schevchenko with a good effort there off the crossbar, from a setpiece, he headed it down, and it bounced up off the crossbar. What a free kick from Frei.. off the bar. So far this is a pretty exciting game, free flowing, and good football.

schwarzer went the right way, but didn't get to the ball.

what a heartbreadker for the aussies.

He sold that . dive.

you are kidding pen to the italians in the 93rd.

Almost a colossal screw up in the box there, the aussies failing to clear. I think the ref has whistled a few times, but it's so loud they can't even hear on the pitch.. Gattuso takes a yellow to stop Chipperfield marauding down the left wing. 3 mins stoppage..

Australia getting some good chances, the italians prepeared to sit back and soak it up.

they showed a stat at half time, we are already way above the total yellows and reds versus the 2002 tournament.

materazzi off straight red.. Fouled bresciano, ref said he was the last man, that was debatable.

schwarzer doing well so far, way better than eh the imposter spiderman..

I too now believe England are set for the semi's.. They'll beat Portugal.

It's a s*** way for the Dutch to lose,

That was funny Gio and Deco sitting there both sent off.

What a laugh Riot... one more card and the ref breaks the record. that's the 16th yellow.

Robben's been asleep this whole 2nd half

Nice rack on that Dutch Fella.

6 mins

nice effort from dirk on the turn come on holland tie it up..

Graham Poll is laughing his little round bottom off watching this, it gets him off the hook.

what happened there? with the subs bench? seriously there'll be 10 mins of stoppage right?

Kuyt one on one with the keeper, good block from ricardo. I'd love this to go to extra time.
