Ukraine - Switzerland (spoilers)
0-0 3-0 on pks. damn, anyone think that perhaps the Swiss will be practicing their penalty kicks a wee bit more for the next four years? 0-3? embarassing.

1. horrible kicks
2 were pretty much straight at the keeper, the other off the bar

4. I stopped watching during extra time

The match was so abysmal I didn't care who won. Very fitting the penalities were an embarrassment also.

5. true, they should kick them both out
and take the next seeded team from the groups who didn't get through. the Swiss have been playing the most cynical football I have seen in a long time (example: they played for a 0-0 tie from the start against Les bleus) so I'm glad they're gone, at least.

6. Spoilers? Nothing happened.
Therefore there is nothing to spoil. Even the penalties were rubbish.
