Re: NSC World Cup Contest - Knockout Stage, Round of 16 RESULTS
No penalties yet, but who knows, we've had some very close matches
Match 5:
CHILE vs VENEZUELA
First half goals:
40' Chile scores a dubious goal. The referee says it will count, but a closer look shows it might have been offside
44' Venezuela scores and it's neck-and-neck going into the second half.

CHILE vs VENEZUELA
Second half goals:
52' Chile scores a second goal. Will their uncertain goal in the first half have given them an unfair victory?
71' It seems not, Chile are obviously on form and score another
79' Chile score a fourth to rule out any possibilities of a Venezuelan win if the Chile goal hadn't been allowed

FAROE ISLANDS vs TRINIDAD & TOBAGO
First half goals:
12' Goal for Faroe Islands
19' The hot favourites from the group stages score another against Trinidad & Tobago
33' Another goal for Faroe Islands...do Trinidad & Tobago have any hope of making a second half comeback?

FAROE ISLANDS vs TRINIDAD & TOBAGO
Second half goals:
47' Faroe Islands score again
55' Will the goals ever end? A fifth for the Faroes
After 5 goals the Faroe Islands team seemed to think that was enough and took off their strikers to rest them, concentrating on maintaining the lead for the rest of the match.

Second half goals:
82' Australia fight hard to try to come back, but Canada manages another goal

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I qualified and got rid of the 2nd host in a row, lach! Only Japan of my favourites missed to pass but I like Colombia a lot, too, so it's not big deal. I hope Canada keeps their lead and then England wins by a landslide.
