World Cup is over

We have now seen both of 'our' teams fall in the last three days. It was great to see first hand the intensity and passion of the Korean supporters (intense but still very eastern - have you ever seen soccer fans clean up rubbish at the end of the night?!) but of course our hearts were really with Australia, who lost just a few minutes ago in rather a crushing way. Things are looking all too familiar in the Cup now - so go Ghana!

UPDATE (thanks Suzi T!): As you may have seen in the news, 4.2 million Koreans have emailed FIFA complaining about the refereeing during the Korea-Switzerland match. Apparently a fan spread the news that if FIFA received 5 million emails they would have to replay the game. Subsequently, FIFA has put a ban on all emails originating from Korea!
