I think that after what North Korea showed neither Ivory Coast, nor Portugal can be sure about a victory in upcoming matches. For sure it won't be a easy one.
The match was not interesting when it comes to scored goal but cerntainly was when it comes to saves. According to ESPN stats North Korean goalkeeper Ri Myong-Guk made 8 saves! It's an impressive result, the best at the tournament so far I think. When one plays against Brazil, one has to stay alert. He did well. On the opposite side of the pitch Julio Cesar didn't have too much to do. Only 1 save made.
Julio Cesar. Not his first World Cup but in 2006 he was a third-choice. Now his time as come and he is Brazil's no. 1.

Ri Myong-Guk. Made 8 saves in the game. That's a lot!
Lucio's shot
I always feel pity for goalkeepers in such situations. The opponents are celebrating and all he can do is only to take out the ball of the net... Well, that's how this game works but still it's sad.
Elano scores.
Tomorrow Iker Casillas and Spain. Can't wait!
