AI GeneratedThis transcript covers high-stakes World Cup knockout matches featuring Brazil vs. Japan, Germany vs. Paraguay, and the Netherlands vs. Morocco, highlighting dramatic goals, VAR interventions, and penalty shootouts.
Ito wanted it played early, he was given it very quickly by Taniguchi but then lost it.
Good snap in midfield between Fakitar and Bruno Guimaraes but it's been won back by Sano
and now he's motoring past Casemiro and he's got options left and right, he goes for goal instead
and gets it! Sharp, incisive and often deadly. And when he hits the shot you're just waiting
for the net to ripple, there's the bad pass, there's the midfield coming to press, Casemiro
no legs, there's the ball in the corner of the net, that's Brazil in a nutshell and that's Japan
1-0 up. His first ever international goal is a goal in a knockout game at the World Cup.
Vinicius Junior, Gabriel tries to lift that to the far post, Casemiro doesn't miss this time,
he didn't take him off in Houston and it's a goal that has been coming.
Ancelotti's down there making all the big decisions because it had been off for me,
he's changed the shape, he's gone back to a more traditional shape, brilliant ball from Gabriel,
just about onside you'd have to say from that. But we've seen him time and time again
get important headers for Manchester United and Brazil, no more important than that one,
gets them back in the game, oh Japan folding at the crucial time.
Remember they're 10 games unbeaten, time to come forward for Danilo, this is Hendrik,
he is robbed by Tanaka, he's given the ball back to Ryan and now Bruno Gimaraes looking for room,
finding Martinelli, plays for Brazil, lead in Houston. He came on inside left because
Vinicius Junior's out there but when he gets this opportunity, look at him just holding back,
doesn't close the space down, one touch onto his right foot and then just bends
it into that far corner, there's a touch on it, onto the post, can't keep it out, Suzuki.
But Brazil have stole it, lots better in this second half, Japan dropped off, played too deep,
gave them too many opportunities and finally the yellow shirt of Brazil, 2-1 up.
It is Almiron's corner, Neuer's punch away was decisive, with no questions to be answered there.
Back to the corner, kick taker Almiron, Bilazza, brilliant header is it,
Enciso has scored for Paraguay, first ever goal in a knockout.
And again it's defending a set piece, it's only partially cleared,
they don't win a tackle there, no pressure of the ball and this is the best moment of the match.
A very good 2v2 motion on the right hand side, tremendous cross, that cross came in by Galarza
and Galarza's had an incredible half, most of it defending, it's a really good header
and just remarkable, it is truly remarkable how Germany finds themselves losing,
going in at halftime or nearly going in at halftime of this match.
It was free-flowing for Germany, this isn't.
I think they've started the second half a little bit better, they've already gotten
three or four crosses in the box, they are trying to move the ball quicker.
Number three for Kai Havertz at this World Cup.
Said more things at halftime but two things that he did say, move the ball more quickly
and also get a lot more crosses in the box and earlier, this is already the fifth cross of the
second half and this is a remarkable cross, right around the penalty spot, Havertz does the
right, the perfect thing as a striker, getting right across the defender, it was Canale,
Canale probably thought as the cross came in that he was going to head it,
there pops up Havertz and it's a perfect header.
Brown to execute the latest Germany corner.
Who towers to potentially send Germany to the round of 16.
Be looking on Anton, standing in front of the goalkeeper.
And indeed, Jalal Jeyad has been instructed to head to the screen here.
They want to allow the Moroccan official to have a clear view of this without the infringement,
so there was a Paraguay player with two arms wrapped around a German player in the box,
there's no reason for him to fall over and he now is asking for some space
and we are going to hear Jalal Jeyad's assessments.
After review, when the ball was in play, attacker number three prevent
the goalkeeper from challenging the ball, final decision foul.
Goal does not count, now it is Germany who wear the disappointments.
Havertz is making Hill wait, here he comes, it's a brilliant save.
Mauricio, and he went the same way but he was too powerful for Neuer.
Kimmich wasn't to be denied, smoothly done by him, 1-1.
How calm is his head right now, very calm indeed.
The centre-half converts, Jamal Musiala.
Oh, he got close here, he got really close, there was just too much thrust on it from Musiala.
Garlazza, that's another excellent Paraguay penalty, they're keeping their nerve here.
Voltamada goes next and so Antonio Sanabria, a one-time wonder kid,
a man who spent his teenage years as a youth player with Barcelona,
has the chance to send Paraguay into the round of 16.
Sanabria, he's missed it.
Emiri does score and so we will go to the last.
And for all of Paraguay, if Barbuena scores, Paraguay win.
What a story for him.
3-3, Jonathan Tah for Germany.
Over the top, it's a dreadful penalty from Tah and Paraguay will have another chance at this.
And it's another centre-half, it's Jose Canale.
Surely this time for Paraguay, he'll have results in history.
Lacoste scored a very, very late equaliser against Argentina in the last World Cup,
although the Dutch went on to lose a knockout game penalties.
Lacoste flicking it on, Somerville, has he got the pace?
He did have the pace, it doesn't matter, the Netherlands find the finish.
And it's Cody Gakko.
And all the emotion that brings.
And the whole Dutch squad surround the man who scored.
He's had the toughest of weeks.
His partner losing their baby.
But for Gakko, he scores for his nation.
We're into added time, the board about to be held up.
But they don't need the extra time.
Essa Diop ends the last throw that dies for Morocco.
Together, it's a hell of a ball in.
He just goes just behind Virgil van Dijk.
Pulling from Taubi and heads his side level.
And boy, do they deserve it.
Touch it, we go to a penalty shootout.
Nothing can separate these two sides.
And so it will go to spot kicks.
The penalty number one, turn Koopminus for the Dutch to give them the lead.
And he squeezes it past Bono.
Can't do it, he strikes the woodwork.
Manu takes penalties for Bournemouth.
Taking one for the Dutch.
And he can't score either.
The board yet.
And still, oh, it's over the line.
Forti saved it, but it's squirmed behind him.
Puts it away.
He's to reply, and he does.
For Quinton Timber.
Here's Hakimi.
Dependable from the spot.
Usually dependable from the spot.
Huge cheers in Orange.
Somerville with penalty number five.
Somerville!
Bono stands tall.
Delivers.
Once again, world stage.
