...goal in the second frame, the Eagles started pushing more attackers up front. The squad outshot the Crimson 19-0 in the second half. Ten minutes away from victory, Harvard gave up a corner, and on the ensuing cross, Boston College’s Kelly Henderson scored on a header. With one minute remaining, the Eagles almost grabbed the win when another shot deflected off the post. In overtime, neither team could notch the game-winner and the contest ended without a victor. Although the Crimson gave up a late goal, Leone was very proud of his team?...
...tiring, backing up, and in Rüstü, the second-choice keeper, the net was vulnerable. So it seemed almost inevitable that Germany would strike with a long ball to Miroslav Klose in the 79th minute that Rüstü completely botched and Klose didn't. His header put Germany in front, but as it has been most of the tournament, falling behind is merely a signal to Turkey to start the big finale. So it seemed just as inevitable that the answer would come soon enough, in the 86th minute. Once again, Sarioglu undressed Lahm...
...56th minute, and it looked a certainty that the Russians could make the goal stand up, despite the addition of Robin van Persie and Ibrahim Afellay to the game for Holland, Arjen Robben being unavailable.

"The most important thing is our movement," noted Pavlyuchenko. "Hiddink said that if we kept going, the Dutch would be worn out sooner or later. I have no idea where our energy came...
...Croats to a standstill for 118 minutes, and thrilling minutes at that, the Turks seemed finished when Ivica Olic - who'd earlier blown a wide-open chanced from yards away - caught Turkish keeper Recber Rustu off his line and lobbed a pass to Ivan Klasnic for a free header and a goal at 119 minutes. But nothing seems to motivate the Turks more than getting behind, as they demonstrated in clawback wins against both Switzerland and, sensationally, the Czech Republic. The Croats had barely pulled themselves off of their victory pile when Semih Senturk somehow responded...
...only time the teams have met this year was back on March 30 in New Jersey in Harvard’s Ivy season opener. The Tigers swept the double header, beating the Crimson by one run-5-4 and 3-2, in back-to-back games. In that series Harvard was crippled by its inability to get timely hits, if the Crimson is going to defend its title that is something it will have to change this weekend...
