  • Futsal World Cup in Brazil:
    • Semifinal: Brazil  4–2  Russia
    • Semifinal: Spain  3–2  Italy (AET)
      • Spain scores a controversial winning goal in the last second of extra time, a bizarre own goal by Italian player Adriano Foglia, who put into his own net a ball rebounded off the crossbar. The TV clock apparently showed the time has run out when the ball crossed the line, and it took some 20 minutes of consultation by the officials until the goal was confirmed.
