LATE GOALS
Cristiano Ronaldo (above) got the ball rolling on this one. After twice having put Portugal ahead against Spain, he got his third from an 88th-minute free-kick to help his team secure a 3-3 draw in their opening game. From here on, the late goals just kept coming.
Germany were celebrating at Sweden’s expense after Toni Kroos’ sublime strike in the 95th minute handed their World Cup a fresh lease of life — only to see South Korea scoring twice in stoppage time to knock the defending champions out.
INJURY TIME HURT THE MOST
There were 23 goals scored in second-half injury time in this World Cup, shattering the previous high of 14, set four years ago in 2014.
