This is the match I have been waiting for Brasil- Ivory Coast.

Game on.

I love it.

So far, we have a tightly played contest.

Brasil hit for pay dirt in the in the 25th minute. Luis Fabiano fought his way thru the tough Ivory Coast “D”.

He roofed a tight angled right side shot to give us 1-0 lead.

Kaka had his hand in the play with a great back heel pass to set up the winner.

Brasil has now seized the match by the throat.

Ivory Coast is still dangerous with Didier Drogba on the pitch.

This cat can change the scope of the match in a heartbeat.

Except for free kick, Drogba has been MIA.

This is not good for the Ivory Coast.

So far so good, for we are up 1-nil.

From the 35th to the 37th minute, the Ivory Coast has had three good attacks on goal. Zippo nada is the result.

We are half and we have the result we wanted a 1-0 lead.

We are in the money. Fabiano took it straight to the rack and beat three Ivory Coast defenders to make 2-0 Brasil in the 50th minute.

A great long ball by mate Julio Cesar set this up.

Drogba had a great header on goal in the 54th minute. His shot skidded across the goalmouth.

This was s close call. 

It is three-nil in the 63rd minute.

Kaka took a free kick down the left side of the pitch. He set it up with a great crossover dribble.

This set up the defender to shade to the middle of the pitch.

Kaka went zoom past em.

He flew straight to Ivory Coast end line.

Elano broke to the center of the box.

Kaka fired a great diagonal pass to mate Elano.

Elano had the easy tap in goal to make 3-0 nil Brasil.

Drogba scored for the Ivory Coast on a break away header in the 79th minute.

This was set up by a defensive lapse by Brasil.

Robinho stopped a for sure goal a few moments earlier.

This led directly to the Didier Drogba goal.

Now you see what I mean about how dangerous Drogba is.

It is 3-1 Brasil.

Kaka was given the heave-hoe after his second yellow card.

The Ivory Coast player deliberately ran into his elbow.

The guy’s a flopper.

This sucks big time.

Brasil was given the raw end of the deal.

Yet read the scoreboard fools.

You lost sucker.

3-1.

Brasil is on to the next round.

Kaka will miss the final Group stage match against Portugal.

Kaka played great.

He didn’t score but had two assists.

The Elephants are dirty.

The Brasil press said that peace has been restored on the Brasilian team. This win tested the nerves of the Brasileiros team- Globo Esporte- Foi uma vitória para restabelecer a paz entre a seleção brasileira e a torcida, que na arquibancada do Soccer City gritou “olé” e “o campeão voltou” graças ao placar de 3 a 1 sobre a Costa do Marfim neste domingo, em Joanesburgo. E foi também uma vitória que testou os nervos de alguns jogadores, já que os africanos apelaram para faltas duras depois de levarem três gols até os 17 minutos do segundo tempo. Kaká não passou nesse teste e foi expulso.

Luis Fabiano’s two goals made him the top scorer with Dunga at the helm.

Os gols marcados por Luis Fabiano (duas vezes, uma delas ajeitando a bola com o braço) e Elano fazem do Brasil o segundo país classificado para as oitavas de final da Copa do Mundo, depois da Holanda, e o terceiro a conseguir 100% de aproveitamento, junto com holandeses e argentinos. A primeira colocação do Grupo G pode ficar garantida já nesta segunda-feira, em caso de empate entre Portugal e Coreia do Norte, que se enfrentam às 8h30m. Luis Fabiano, agora o artilheiro da era Dunga (com 21 gols), foi eleito o melhor em campo no Soccer City. 

The press is saying that Fabiano’s second goal is similar to Maradona’s famous “Hand of God” goal in 1986.

The the ball did roll up his arm.

The ref didn’t see it.

Too bad this baby counts.

This was like Maradona’s blatant hand ball.

This sucker was not intentional.

 Em 1986, o gol com a mão de Maradona na partida de quartas de final entre Argentina e Inglaterra criou uma polêmica que se arrasta por mais de 20 anos e promete não ter fim. Neste domingo, em Joanesburgo, Luis Fabiano, mais discretamente, usou novamente do artifício para ampliar a vantagem da seleção brasileira sobre a Costa do Marfim, na partida vencida pelo Brasil por 3 a 1. Após a partida, o atacante confessou que dominou a bola com o braço. No entanto, ele tentou aliviar para o seu lado.

Foi uma mão involuntária, a mão de Deus. Realmente a bola acabou tocando na mão no primeiro lance. O segundo lance foi no ombro. Para ficar mais bonito, o gol tinha que ter um toque duvidoso. Mas como foi involuntário, acho que valeu o gol. Acho que foi um dos mais bonitos da minha carreira. Fazer um gol numa Copa do Mundo é espetacular. Acho que é falar mais do gol, que foi uma pintura, do que o uso da mão – afirmou.

New Zealand pulled off a huge upset by tying the defending World Cup champs Italy one all.

Italy is playing like crap.

Paraguay shut out Slovenia 2-0.

Paraguay is in the pole position in Group F with four points. Italy and New Zealand are tied for second with two points each.
