Day 4

9. Nehterlands vs. Denmark- 2-0 Netherlands

This game was another early one, and it took a little bit to get going. I was expecting The Netherlands to come out quick and get ahead and not let up but Denmark was up for the task. The Dutch finally scored on an own goal of a defenders back, I guess you take them however you can. Then as the game was wrapping up they got their second goal and closed out the win for all 3 points.

10. Japan vs. Cameroon- 1-0 Japan

This one was a little bit of a surprise for me I did not see it going this way. Cameroon struggled to amount much of an attack other than a rare chance here or there and Japan capitalized and score the only goal of the game putting Cameroon's chances of getting out of the group not too good, and I don't see them making it with two tougher teams left to play.

11. Italy vs. Paraguay- 1-1

This game was a rainy one and almost an upset, but the defending champs battled back for the draw. In the first half Paraguay struck first with a header. The second half got a little more interesting with maybe Italy's best player Buffon the goal keeper coming off with an injury, but it was Paraguay's goalie who changed the game. In a bad move he came out and wiffed on a corner and De Rossi headed it in. This game didn't surprise me too much I figured Italy would struggle this cup but both these teams should make it out of the group.
