Great game

My brother was here for the weekend and we watched quite a bit of World Cup. By far our favorite game was between Trinidad & Tobago and Sweden. T&T were not supposed to do well as this was their first World Cup and they were supposed to get killed by everyone -- Sweden included. They pulled off a 0-0 tie through the first half after some great play by their goalie Shaka Hislop.

Almost immediately into the second half one of their players received a red card and we thought - oh no, games over now. But they held on and we were cheering for a tie. They had a few chances where we thought they were going to score but it didn't happen. I think the stadium would have exploded if they had scored in that second half down a man. What a great game.
