Yankees in baseball, Panama in soccer

I couldn't ask for a better sunday. This sunday the 17th I had a nice time watching sports. I watched the baseball game between the Yankees and the Red Sox & the soccer game between Panama and South Africa. They both started at the same time so I was switching from one channel to the other, watching both games at the same time.

I think I almost had a heart attack watching the end of both games. Yankees on their last inning, Mariano trying to save the game, bases suddenly loaded, it looked grim. But at the end they came through.

Panama is playing in the soccer Gold Cup in the U.S. Panama played the regular time then had to go to extra time, and they were still tied 1-1. Then they had to go to penalty kicks (I always get extremely nervous with penalty kicks, so you can imagine how I was). The official score was 1-1, but Panama was able to beat South Africa on the penalty kicks (5-3). The panamanian goalkeeper stopped one kick. For us this is great, our team has never been close before to where they are currently. So we are going on to the semifinals in New Jersey against Colombia on thuersday. I wish them all the luck, they deserve it. For a little more about Sunday's game check ESPN Soccernet.
