Poland won with Ivory Coast 3-1! Robert Lewandowski scored two times, and Obraniak shot an amazing goal from a free kick. Łukasz Fabiański had a lot of work, as the defense was as leaky as usual.
Watching friendly Portugal - Spain right now. Portugal is leading the game 1-0! Martins scored a goal in 45'. A lot is happening on the pitch. Both Casillas and Eduardo are not left without an occupation.
The second half has just started. Rui Patricio changed Eduardo.
Edit: 2:0! Postiga scores in 49'.
Edit 2: 3:0! Beautiful action under Casillas's goal and Postiga scores again. Why the match at the World Cup 2010 couldn't look like that?!
Edit 3: Hugo Almeida scores in 90'+4. A perfect ending!

Internation friendly: USA vs Poland 2-2 9 Oct 2010, video highlights and photos
That was a really good game to watch. I must admit I didn't believe Poland was going to show something interesting here. So good that my predictions never come true.
USA was fast and dangerous as always, and was leading the game for the most time, but Poland managed to equalize two times. Both teams committed mistakes in the defence and the ending was really dramatic, especially for Poland, which was inches from losing a goal in the injury time.
It was nice to see ambition and involevment on both sides, as if it was not a friendly but a game for points.
Jozy Altidore made a good job, scoring one goal and coming close to score another.
In Polish team Jakub Błaszczykowski showed an excellent shape, and his actions on the right wing were very dangerous. Ludovic Obraniak also did good job, and had assists in both goals.
Ok, get to the point, what is the performance of the goalkeepers. Artur Boruc, as always, saved situation in crucial moments. Had to make the first save at the very beginning of the match. The most dramatic was of course the one in the injury time, when he made a save from just a few meters distance. He made 3 saves in total.
Tim Howard had a lot of work to do. He saved a situation one on one (however, Robert Lewandowski could do better than kicking the ball straight on the goalkeeper) and Obraniak's shot from the distance. Very fine performance of him. Liked his self-confidence and that he never lost focus. Strange feeling, to fell happy that the goalkeeper made a save, and sad at the same time, that Polish team wasted an opportunity ;) Howard made 5 saves in total.
