Sol Bamba's penalty is saved...but he can retake it as the keeper came off his line.

He scores the retake. It's 3-3.

Kolo Toure's penalty is saved by Mweene!

If Zambia score...they win! He's missed!

I don't think anybody has.

Only one player plays in Europe (Young Boys in Switzerland). The others play for teams in Africa, the Middle East and China.

The goalkeeper will be a star...

Here's Drogba's penalty miss/goalkeeper's celebration...the best part of the celebration is in the last 15 seconds.
