Vittek scores on PK but it's all over


Vittek calmly finished the penalty kick with a low, hard shot to the left to cut it to 2-1 Netherlands in the 94th minute.

That gave him four for the tournament, tying him for the Golden Boot with Gonzalo Higuain of Argentina. However, right when Slovakia ran into the net to fetch the ball out the whistle was blown and it was all over.

Vittek stays onside but shoots over


Slovakia couldn't have asked for anything more as their best goal-scorer had the ball on his feet in the box but Robert Vittek shot it over. He stayed onside with the last Dutch defender but couldn't get it on goal.

Van Persie was just subbed out for Klaas-Jan Huntelaar. Slovakia must not have any depth or something since they've only made one substitution thus far.

1-0 Netherlands in the 83rd minute.

Vittek says adios Italy


In the 73rd minute, after a corner kick and sneaky ball from forward Marek Hamsik, Vittek scores his second on a clever little one-timer.

And Italian forward Simone Pepe just picked up a yellow card for a frustration foul. Italy and France in previous tournaments are the only World Cup champions to not make it out of the group stage in the next World Cup.

0-0 Paraguay-New Zealand in the 78th minute, if the Kiwis can score one goal they'll go to the top of the group.

start packing your bags Italy


Slovakian forward Robert Vittek just gave his team a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute. A giveaway by the Italian defense led the long shot into the left corner.

1-0 Slovakia in the 30th minute, 0-0 Paraguay-New Zealand. If these results hold, Slovakia and Paraguay would go through.

Italian captain and defender Fabio Cannavaro just received a yellow card for getting in the way of a running Slovakian player.
