Several goals scored on FRI 16 JUN 2006 will make it into the highlight reel at the end of the tournament.
» Argentina 06-00 Serbia-Montenegro: Amongst the Albiceleste's six goals was a beautiful play between Esteban CAMBIASSO and Hernán CRESPO, who backheeled to Cambiasso for the finish.
» Netherlands 02-01 Côte d’Ivoire: Robin VAN PERSIE curled a free kick around the wall and in, Ruud VAN NISTELROOY finished convincingly, and Bakary KONE fired a rocket from just outside the area. The end result was a win for the Dutch, placing themselves and Argentina in the last sixteen from Group C.
» Mexico 00-00 Angola: Angola's fans were doubtless fearing the worst when ANDRÉ Macanga's ill advised handball became his second yellow in the 79th minute, but some wonderful saves from Pereira JOÃO RICARDO kept the Palancas Negras alive in Group D.
