Honduras putting in some pretty brutal tacklesby David Ljunggren via twitter 6/25/2014 8:17:49 PM

Shot! Sissoko has a chance at a wonder goal and produces merely an good shot from a very difficult position.
Digne got free down the left again and sent in a cross. Sissoko was unmarked at the back post and the ball either floated to him or took a deflection off a head, I couldn't tell which. Anyway, the ball sat up for him about 15 yards out and he hit a waist high volley. On target but Dominguez made the save easily. -

From a long punt downfield, Sahko tries to keep Ayovi off the ball as it bounces toward the French goal. Ayovi ends up getting to it and shoots wide from a very tight angle.
the last four or five minutes have been better for Ecuador. They haven't had any great chances, but they've had the ball in the French half and kept possession for more than three or four passes. Ten minutes ago they couldn't do either of those things. -

Neither side seem able to pass the ball right now, kind of desultory playby David Ljunggren via twitter 6/25/2014 8:26:15 PM

Somehow it's still 0-0!
Sagna whips a cross in near post and Griezmann, who is sandwhiched between two defenders puts a great touch on the ball! It's coming at him from the right, and he jumps and half-swivels to hit the ball with the outside of his LEFT foot. It's on target but Dominguez gets down to save it and it bounces off the bar.
That was a totally improbable bit of skill. -
