Editing 2006 FIFA World Cup (section)

===Quarter-finals===
Germany and Argentina ended 1–1 after extra time; the hosts edged out the Argentinians 4–2 on penalties to go through to the semifinals (this was the first time Argentina had lost a World Cup penalty shootout: up until this match, Argentina and Germany had each participated in three penalty shootouts, winning all of them).

In [[Arena AufSchalke|Gelsenkirchen]], England faced Portugal in a repeat of their Euro 2004 quarter-final. This time [[Wayne Rooney]] was sent off, and Portugal again won on penalties, 3–1 after a 0–0 draw to reach their first World Cup semi-final since the days of [[Eusébio]] 40 years earlier. This gave manager [[Luiz Felipe Scolari]] his third consecutive tournament quarter-final win over [[Sven-Göran Eriksson]]'s England, first with Brazil en route to their 2002 World Cup win, then with Portugal in 2004 and 2006.

Italy defeated quarter-final debutants Ukraine 3–0. France eliminated Brazil 1–0 to advance into the semi-finals. Brazil only managed one shot on goal, while [[Zinedine Zidane]]'s dribbling earned him Man of the Match and his free-kick to [[Thierry Henry]] resulted in the winning goal.
