Greece managed to defeat the Ivory Coast 2-1 on Tuesday and advance through Group C thanks to a terrible foul call in the box in extra time. Greece went ahead on the ensuing penalty, giving them the win they needed to avoid elimination from the World Cup.
This is the foul that led to the penalty:
.embed-container {position: relative; padding-bottom: 100%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;} .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
An absolutely brutal call that wound up screwing the Ivory Coast, who will be heading home early as a result. You really have to feel for their players and fans, who must feel extremely cheated.
