[starfish]

Thats my sweepstake chances well & truly up the spout

 

[binka]

how many will spain concede now they need to score 3?

 

[marty21]

Spain 17/2 on Bet365 to win - put a cheeky quid on

 

[ruffneck23]

The Chilean supporters deserve this

 

[big eejit]

Wow. Spain have the players, do they the cojones to stage a great comeback?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Well, goodness...

 

[Lo Siento.]

Got some Chileans round. We are enjoy.

Spanish hopes are kaput. The domestic and European adventures of Real Madrid, Atheletico Madrid have taken their toll. They look tired and fucked....
Of course Torres may come on to save the day.

Looking forward to this one - real test of spains mettle and will decide wether they really are a spent force.

I think chile should go at them right from the start. Spains confidence has got to be pretty shaky after the holland game - so if they can stop spain establishing their possession game and run at them with pace (a bit like england did against italy) spain could crumble again.

The Chile manager clearly read my earlier post.

Of course Torres may come on to save the day.

lol

 

[skyscraper101]

Are they about to 'do a France in 2002', or even an 'Italy in 2010'?

 

[scifisam]

Current champions probbly going out in the first round, blimey.

 

[Supine]

I like Chile

have they played that many more games than the german team? possibly but there can't be that much in it!

 

[not-bono-ever]

has anyone ever retained a WC ?

Still, get intae them Chile!

 

[editor]

I guess it's not impossible that Spain could come back... but really?

 

[mack]

Poor casillas.. Confidence is shot. Can't see Spain coming back from this.

Google translates this as:

you go home in a minibus shit

seems appropriate

 

[rekil]

Spain reduced to needing to beat Australia to avoid them bottom of the group blues.

 

[Sunray]

I was thinking, if Chile go 2 up, Spain are out.

Spain are out. Or we are going to witness one of the greatest comebacks in World Cup history.

 

[Spymaster]

That Chile goal was fucking ace. The fellas last two touches were magic.

[Kaka Tim]

Never liked tikka takka football. more of this fast paced, running at defenders frantic stuff.

Amazing technique, composure and confidence. Fucking ice in his veins.

 

[rekil]

Chile lad who turned up for their first game in Curitiba instead of Cuiba 1700kms away.

 

[agricola]

Casillas then:

Casillas now:

 

[binka]

funny season for casillas, dropped in the league and played in the champions league. must be finished for club and country now?

 

[Spymaster]

Amazing technique, composure and confidence. Fucking ice in his veins.

Just saw it again slow. He's totally focused on making that space with the first tap - to toe it in. Brilliant.

 

[rekil]

I can see a Spainman getting a red card. "We're out. I'm a superstar. I'm not hanging around to get kicked about by fuckin Australia."
