Round of 16 Results: Day 4
Paraguay 0-0 Japan (5-3 penalties)
Both teams play tentatively, even fearfully, in a scoreless snoozer. Heartbreak for the Blue Samarai's Yuichi Komano as his penalty miss gifts Paraguay the win.
Spain 1-0 Portugal
A high energy match in which Spain unsurprisingly dominates possession with their master passing. The Portuguese defense is finally unlocked with a Xavi to Iniesta sequence beautifully finished by David Villa.

Wow! Quick turnaround on the updates!

I didn't think Japan/Paraguay was a snoozer...it was a fair and exciting finish to an even match, to me.
fair play, kc. beauty is in the eye of the beholder... and really only one of my eyes was on the match.
