QFs on today.

Brazil beat Cameroon 2-0 after extra time, goals from Rafael Sobis and Marcelo. Cameroon down to ten men after 51 minutes.

Italy 2 Belgium 3. A man each sent off, Belgiums after 18 minutes, Italy's came after Belgium went 3-2 up. Belgium had previously led 2-1. Desperately disappointing outcome for such a talented Italy squad.

Argentina and Holland have just gone into extra-time, it's 1-1.

Nigeria beat Ivory Coast 1-0 earlier.

Great tournament.

God bless RTE and their wonderful 2 minutes every few day's coverage. :rolleyes:

It's been consistently the best football tournament in the world for the last decade and a half... oh to have BBC and Sky's red button now...

2-1 now to the Argies...

I've been watching the beeb, however whenever i have used the red button there has never been a live football option (basketball/badminton/cycling)

i don't think they even have shown 2 min highlights of all the games....

(can't stream anything as my broadband is gone to shite, and BT can't sort the fucking thing out....0.35 of a meg FFS, should be getting 6.0)
