Final Scoreline for Match 6:


URUGUAY - 1
(Cavani 24' PK)


COSTA RICA - 3
(Campbell 54', Duarte 57', Urena 84')


Wow! Who saw that coming?! The much-fancied Uruguay in practically their home turf getting their socks beaten off?! Must have been one heck of a second half!

And to think they didn't play Luis Suarez because they didn't fancy their opponents highly, and thought it might be a cakewalk. BIG mistake.

Final Scoreline for Match 7:


ENGLAND - 1
(Sturridge 37')


ITALY - 2
(Marchisio 35', Balotelli 50')


Expected result. England's young guns are still a bit raw and the Azurri are way too experienced when it comes to WC finals. Combine that with the red-hot form of Mario Balotelli, and it would have been curtains for the boys across the pond.

Having said that, they couldn't equalise in the next 40 minutes, even with Rooney?! *shaking head*

Final Scoreline for Match 8:


IVORY COAST - 2
(Bony 64', Gervinho 66')


JAPAN - 1
(Honda 16')


Another expected result. Credit to the Japanese for scoring the first goal so early, but the Coast boys are relentless. Two back-to-back goals within 2 minutes says a lot about their firepower. Still, a closer result than they would have expected.
