But if you can play to a good enough standard, then one day you could be selected for the World Cup. And the 22 players on the field in Denmark (the players were mainly white) v Cameroon (the players were mainly black) proved that, especially when Cameroon player Samuel Eto'o scored the first goal in the tenth minute and an equalizer was scored in the 33rd minute by Nicklas Bendtner, but Dennis Rommedahl brought the scorelines to 2-1 for Denmark in the 61st minute. And race doesn't play a part in whether or not you get booked either because two players from each team were shown the yellow card: Sebastien Bassong and Stephane Mbia for Cameroon, and Thomas Sorenson and Simon Kjaer for Denmark.
Afterwards, we moved the focus onto another race: the race for a golden trophy with two green bands at the bottom. The next two teams competing for the cup were Slovakia and Paraguay, who won the match 2-0. And as has happened for the last 26 games, the fixture was not without its bookings; a total of 4 players were booked. If you want to know how low scores can get in soccer, the first goal in the match was only the 50th so far in the whole tournament! Who will score the 100th?
Not the All Whites or Italy! But they played a good game, scoring 1-1. As usual, some players were booked - in this particular match, 3 All Whites, including one of the silliest yellow cards ever: Ryan Nelsen got injured and left the field without the help of a stretcher that was required in his condition.
