WORLD CUP: MATCHDAY STATS 14 JUNE

It's the fourth day and the World Cup 2010 continues with another three group matches. Two Group E matches and one Group F matches were played yesterday. It was rather a lack of inspiration where no one can really match the excitement of the Germany vs Australia game. Nevertheless, Netherlands overcame a difficult start to score two on second half for a victory against Denmark. Japan made a major upset by defeating Cameroon on 1-0. Italy survived a scare from Paraguay and they were forced to share a point each.


Here are the match highlights on Day 4 - June 14:
