OT: World Cup Soccer Spain 0 Paraguay 0, 2nd Half

A penalty kick for Spain, Paraguay's goalie saved it, a diving (at least "highly embellished fall" as ESPN radio said) won another penalty, Spain kicked it in the net but negated, had to redo it, Paraguay's goalie saved it.

So it is still 0-0.

I have a feeling it will be either 1-0 via dive+penalty kick combo, or penalty shootout after overtime. A drama of penalty shootout would fit the Latin temperament, wouldn't it?

At least that would be less traumatic than 4-0 humiliation that Argentina just suffered at the hands (or rather, feet) of Germany.
