Never before I had seen so many people struggling to keep tears away from
their faces, knowing that our "golden team" wasted their last chance to ever

Oh well. Go USA, Go Korea, Go everyone else. The Game MUST go on, may the
best team win the Cup!
Pedro (trying really hard to cope with the insanity of the tears down his face)
