繼蘇神咬人之后，不甘寂寞的科特迪瓦門將咬了一嘴草慶祝進球，昨天的世界杯稱作“咬之日”也不為過。

The Ivory Coast were at risk of being eliminated from the World Cup by Greece, who scored their first goal of the tournament just before halftime. If the lead held, the Euro 2004 winners would have continued their miraculous ways by reaching the knockout stage by scoring just one goal in three matches.

據雅虎體育6月25日報道，上半場依靠薩馬拉斯（Samaras）的冷靜推射，希臘1-0領先科特迪瓦，收獲了他們在本屆世界杯的首粒進球。如果能保持領先到終場，那么這支2004年歐洲杯的王者將能有機會在世界杯賽場上續寫他們的希臘神話。

But after several close calls and a couple of shots off the crossbar for the Greeks, Ivory Coast substitute Wilfried Bony equalized in the 74th minute to reclaim the advantage for that round of 16 berth. And Ivory Coast goalkeeper Boubacar Barry celebrated by jamming a wad of grass in his mouth and showing it to the camera behind his goal.

此后比賽雙方一直未能進球，僵局一直持續到第74分鐘，替補出場的維爾弗里德·博尼(Wilfried Bony)推射入門，幫助科特迪瓦扳平比分。如果這個比分保持到終場，科特迪瓦將以小組第二的身份出線，這使得科特迪瓦門將科帕·巴里（ Boubacar Barry ）顯得異常興奮，只見他沖向身后的球網，嘴里居然還咬著一小撮草，球場攝像機為觀眾們捕捉到了這有趣的一幕。

The only grass eating for Boubacar after this would be sad grass eating, though. The Ivory Coast conceded a penalty in added time and Georgios Samaras converted the spot kick to give Greece a 2-1 win and put them in a round of 16 match against Costa Rica.

遺憾的是這個吃草慶祝的方式并沒能笑到最后，補時階段，依靠薩馬拉斯科的點球希臘最終2-1絕殺科特迪瓦，后者無緣16強。
