Spain v Russia

[mrkikiet]

that was coming

 

[goldenecitrone]

Muy bien. I'm torn who to support in the final. I'll have to go for Spain with a Torres winner. But Germany could just sneak it.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

3-0! Loving this style of football.

 

[mrkikiet]

senna is IMMENSE

 

[magneze]

Really well taken goal that last one. Viva Espana!

 

[TrippyLondoner]

That 4- 1 win was no fluke.

 

[marty21]

spain have been well impressive tonight -

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Looks like my prediction for the final was right.

 

[mrkikiet]

what a second half from spain.

 

[editor]

Russia were hugely disappointing. Spain look good though!

 

[soulman]

3-0

 

[frogwoman]

but well done spain, well played!

 

[Obnoxiousness]

Spain were solid.

Russia were out played.... simply brilliant.

 

[Mation]

senna is IMMENSE

player of the tournament for me. I don't see Germany getting much change from him. Brilliant tournament deserves Spain as its winner now.

 

[iROBOT]

Not a single mention of our Fab....

Scores winning penalty in the quarters and sets up two in the semi's...What a player. Ran Russia ragged.

You da man Cesc....

 

[JHE]

Los chicos done good.

 

[frogwoman]

Brilliant tournament deserves Spain as its winner now.

Yep.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

fabregas is fucking quality btw, should start the final.

Phew! Thanks Trippy' thought I was imagining his performance...

 

[TrippyLondoner]

He changed the game v italy to, he makes use of all the set pieces rather than wasting them, creates loads of chances, i dunno why he didn't start the game.

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

eh viva espana!

He's incredibly versatile and (more importantly) very intelligent and neither can I understand why he doesnt start, but it's worked so far, so cant complain with the tactics.

Well done Spain, at last we start to see what you're about...

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Exactly as I expected it to go


Nice to see Spain make it, but it was a bit boring here TBH. Seems to be far fewer Spanish fans than anything else

 

[Sweaty Betty]

The Spanish came out in the second half and socked it to them- i aint seen the spanish play like that all tournament- Russia were shocked and had no answer, which was gutting but the spanish defence was so tight and their attacking game awesome, i so hope they kill Germany as up untill that second half i was sure Russia were gonna walk away with the final!!!!!!!!

oh you liar! you was hoping for 5-1 to the ruskis iirc.

That's what I was expecting. I was hoping for something else

You mis-read again obviously.

obv buenos noches senor edwards

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Just realized, i don't remember Arshavin being mentioned at all, or atleast in the 2nd half.

 

[Concrete Meadow]

Arshavin was very quiet all through the game. Perhaps he was thinking ... "hmm, Barça?"

In any case, big up to Spain! And too bad Villa is injured.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Thats probably a blessing in disguise that villa is injured, Fabregas may start now.
