Sweden 1-0 Paraguay
The first-half of this Group B match was a fairly open affair. Sweden started strongly and looked more than capable of scoring a goal. Paraguay appeared to be a threat too, but certainly less so than Sweden.
As the second-half wore on both teams seemed to become more cagey. Sweden still looked like a serious threat and were unlucky twice with Allback - firstly for a misjudged offisde decision from the linesman, and secondly with a goalline clearence from Caniza. Paraguay were having plenty of chances, but they were longrange and wide or over (although a few of them didn't miss by much!).
It looked like Sweden would end this match with a second draw, but Ljungberg had other ideas as he headed Sweden ahead in the 89th minute! Bobadilla had pulled off a few good saves before this, but he couldn't do anything to stop Ljungberg's effort. Sweden are almost through, Paraguay are the third team eliminated.
For Sweden not to go through next Tuesday, England would have to beat them while Trinidad & Tobago beat Paraguay. Then it would come down to GD. What a story that could be!

I've known about Greek mythology from a young age
, but its mostly the adventure aspect and puzzles which draw me to Tomb Raider games. Makes a break from the many run & shoot games out there!
I was like YES!
