Jamaica 4 - 4 N. Ireland - Men's

By far the most entertaining game of the night. Northern Ireland went up 2-0 early on, despite Jamaica controlling the game. Jamaica would miss the net, hit the crossbar, lose the ball at the top of the box, etc. It just wasn’t going their way. The first half ended 2-0. The Jamaicans brought it in the second half, scoring 2 goals after again controlling the play. The 3^rd goal from Jamaica would have seemed to be the one that would finally doom Northern Ireland. Instead, Northern Ireland went right back on the offensive, scoring the tying goal. Jamaica had to press hard for the final five minutes, and finally got the 4^th goal. That had to be it, right? Nope. Northern Ireland, with seconds remaining, launched the ball into the box, and slotted it past the keeper to tie it at 4. Excellent game.

 Laos 3 - 1 Colombia - Men's
Colombia, fresh off a disappointing loss to Jamaica, really had to bring it against Laos if they wanted to go through. Laos was leading 1-0 at half on a hard-working goal, but to be completely honest, Colombia had more chances. If not for a disallowed goal, Colombia would have been right there in contention with Laos. The second and third goals from Laos sealed Colombia’s fate, and a consolation goal at the end made it 3-1.
