Italy and Ghana (!) move to the next round after an apparently controversial penalty kick earned Ghana an extra goal (not that we would have advanced even if we'd tied). I missed the whole thing because I was in class, which is probably for the best. WorldCupBlog has the games liveblogged here.

After their strong performance against the U.S., I'm a bit shocked that Czech Republic didn't advance. Ghana definitely earned its slot, though.

Next up: Japan v. Brazil and Croatia v. Australia to determine who from Group F joins Brazil in the Round of Sixteen. It's anybody's round. If I race back to Durham I can just miss kick-off.
