And check out this hair:
Here is the winning goal. Pretty:

Camaroon is awesome. They caught my eye in the Japan game. One of their players (the one with the glasses, I think, the FIFA highlight reel doesn't feature the shot I'm thinking of) has a cannon of a shot from right at the line, and the woman with the awesome hair just fights and fights and fights for offense (plus, she has unbelievably long legs). I was really happy that they made it past the Swiss last night, and I was really irritated in the post game shows that they didn't even talk about that game.
Also, check out Colombia if you haven't seen them yet. Their victory over France on Saturday was a thing of beauty. They are playing England today, and though they're on top, it's a fairly tight group, so I imagine they're going to fight hard.
