I stayed up late last night...witnessed the lose of japan.it was a really nice game.Although it was 0-0 at the first regular 90minutes,no passionate score.but both team showed their spirit of perseverance,teamwork,and sharp offensive momentum as well as their solid defensive tactics.they defined the essence of sports to the world perfectly.

In the additional 30minutes,they continued to fight with high spirit.but no matter how hard the warriors tried and no matter how many tactics and the player changes the coach carried out.both team still could't rip their opponent's soild defensive line.it was quite a shame though,japanese team had several threatening shot.but the paraguay crew made japan's victory hope fly away in vain,for god favored paraguay at the time.

Inevitably,they had to face the cruel penalty shoot-out... ...Actually it is cruel enough to have the elimilation system at the second round of the world cup.Vividly,America is an example.both U.S and Ghana scored one at the regular 90minutes.second round wouldn't allow a tie exist.so,they had to have a 30 minutes additional time...after the successful shoot by Ghana at about 103minutes of the game,the machanism of the elimination system wouldn't allow America to have another 17minutes of the additional time. Thanks to the so called"suddendeath" rule,Ghana got into the top 8.Unfortunately for their opponent---God didn't bless the united state of america.

The difference between these two games was that,Japan and paraguay even didn't score any after the additional time........Here came the most cruel moment....penalty shoot-out.and Japan....The only hope of Asia.....failed.....

I said to all my friends i was absolutely neutral during this world cup,'cause there is no chinese team... ...but i don't know why...this time i was little bit upset when japan lost one of the penaties....even though i hate japanese people...

it's the game...it's world cup!!!

Best wishes to all the survived top 8... ...i am looking forward to watch your exellent performance!!!
