I watched the whole Russia/Cro game today.  Two great scoring plays surrounded by a lot of uninspired play.  Russians seemed to be playing a neutral-zone trap (hockey) equivalent.  Was not exciting.  Extra time was very exciting - should be sudden death, really.  
Somebody with good soccer knowledge help me here.  The guy on Croatia who hit the beautiful, long, bouncing header in for the 2nd Croatian goal - he played D sometimes with his arms behind his back to prevent the handball.  The handball that led to the 2nd Russian goal, the Croatian defender blatantly threw his elbow/upper arm out into the ball.  WduhF was that?  It didn't look like he was beat if he just let the ball go.  Was it just a really, really stupid play?

Also, I think Khawi Leonard needs to talk the Croatian goal tender about his quad tear.  That goal tender had a completely torn hamstring muscle that was cured after 80 seconds of vigorous rubbing.  It was inspiring.
