**21:23** 2nd 1/2 of the match a bit boring, only 1 and only goal from Ronaldo, fair or rather clean game played, only 20 fouls and 3 free kicks. I wanted to see more Carlos trademark freekick and goals, but nevertheless, China did a good job.

**20:20** Yay, Brazil is leading by 3 goals, score at half-time Brazil(3)-China(0), the first goal by Carlos is definitely superb, very excellent free-kick. Carlos lives up to his name.

**19:00** 2nd match of the day is exciting, Italy loses 2-0 to Croatia, LOL. Croatia’s winning goal is very lucky I must say. Italy almost equalizes at the last min, but that goal not counted because of an offside.

My good buddy Benjamin “Paranoia” Eng, has designed 2 T-shirts, they look really nice, I personally have ordered it. The designs are Akira Concept and Designer Army.
