So Ghana has the winning goal blocked by an illegal hand block. In legal play, they win right there. Instead they get a very short penalty kick -- which somehow they miss! Then they go on to lose in a shootout.
So cheating won Uruguay a trip to the semifinals. Ain't sports neat and a great model for kids.
A rule change makes an easy fix: in basketball, this is called goal tending and the score counts. Ghana wins and moves on.
