This was Ghana's chance to turn up the odds on one of the top European country's at this World Cup,
but we all knew this would be a tough match between too height weight one fight to keep hopes alive to there country and the over trying to get top of the group.
The match had a good first half with both teams could have took the lead in this match that wasn't so easy for Germany that many people thought it would be with most of there players playing in the top German side Bayern Munich that won there league this year and Ghana had some good chances to make a statement in the first have to show that they are here to win this game, but they where able to keep the score at 0-0 to go in the first half with a very good score for both teams.

Nigeria 1-0 Bosnia-Hercegovina
Both teams knew this is a must win game to keep the hopes of getting through to the next round to the last sixteen with who ever wins this would keep their hopes still alive and then it would take it to the third and final game.

Argentina 1-0 Iran
This should have been one of easiest games of the group stage for Argentina with them up against Iran who have been one of the teams no one expects much from up against one of the high rated teams that could win this years world cup.
Argentina who had Lionel Messi is rated one of the best players in the Spanish League La Liga how is aged 27 and current club FC Barcelona, they also have Sergio Agüero that plays for Man City,
Javier Mascherano, Marcos Rojo.
Iran have players Ashkan Dejagah's, Andranik Teymourian for the game.
The was two Yellow cards of the game both for Iran - Javad Nekounam, Masoud Shojaei.
Iran start off in the game quiet well not being out played much within the first ten minutes, but Argentina had some of the best chances by Iran did get some sort of chance in the first half and even with Argentina stars they couldn't come up with nothing in the first half.
With the game still open for both sides that could go either way and at 0-0 at Half time, it was a great result for a Iran team that would be happy with this and was expected to be in least 2 to 3 goals down by now.
The second half started like the first with both not taking there chances when they get them and this was not one of the best games of the second group stages and could have turn at to be one of the boring games with not much that much between in the score line.
It looked like the score like to stay at 0-0 that would have give Iran a very happy point and it would be disappointment for Argentina if it stayed like this dropping two points.
Iran had a penalty shout not given to me that could have chance the game.
In the last minute in 90th minute Lionel Messi was able to steal the three point from Iran that let Argentina take it from them that was disappointing for a Iran side that near took a point only lost out by minutes, Lionel Messi was not playing the best but was able to get the goal.
That put Argentina in a good position to get to the last sixteen.
Japan 0-0 Greece
Japan against Greece was a very average game with not a lot expected from the game by we did expect in least one goal, but it wasn't to be and it was a straight forward 0-0 game with both getting chances neither team could get the goal.
Even with a point this gives them both one still giving them a chance of both getting to the last sixteen and out of group C.
Japan had advantage when Greece went down to ten men when captain Konstantinos Katsouranis that was sent off after a second yellow card before half time in Natal.
Japan couldn't take nothing out of them down to 10 men with the game ending with stalemate
Greece best chance came from Fulham striker Konstantinos Mitroglou limped off the pitch in the 34 minutes and Japans best chance was from Yoshito Okubo that missed from just a couple of yards.
This leaves the team with one point going into their final game of the group stage.
This left the score at Greece 0-0 Japan.

Greece - Vasilis Torosidis, Georgios Samaras
Greece Red Card - Konstantinos Katsouranis

The first goal was for Colombia in the 64 minute from the James Rodríguez who is Colombia replacement for the missing Radamel Falcao who is on his way for the golden boot.
Then six minutes later Colombia got another goal but this time it was from Juan Quintero in the 70 minute that look to have steal the three points for Colombia, but Ivory Coast wasn't going to give up the game that easy.
Ivory Coast started the fight back with three minute later in the 73 minute Gervinho scored to give Ivory Coast so hope to make the score Ivory Coast 1-2 Colombia.
But the Ivory Coast tried their best to get a goal back and had chance just couldn't find the back of the net and Ivory Coast did get five minutes in injury time at the end of the game.

The African time had more problems near the end of the game with the Cameroon players Moukandjo and Assou-Ekotto getting into an argument between each other in stoppage time, when Benoit Assou-Ekotto thrust his head at the other team mate Benjamin Moukandjo this incident caused them to get very nasty at each other.
Cameroons best chances came in dying seconds on the match when substitute player Pierre Webo's Header made Croatia goal keeper Stipe Pletikosa make a very good save, to Cameroon for getting anymore goals back.
