Football Thread - World Cup Special XI : Othor Games

I think Robben deserved to pissed off there, I think. That was pretty blatant holding by Puyols. He almost scored it anyway, though. Spain needs to keep the ball away from him.

Actually second half was great I thought. Some proper good end-end action.

Also Spain need Torres. I know I'm biased and stuff but every time they get out wide they have no one in the middle, around the penalty spot where all great strikers lurk.

Thought the second half was interesting. :shrug:

Agreed. Second half was interesting. Also I greatly enjoyed Poyuls break dancing when he went down on Robben's second break away.

Go Holland!!!

Spain in the ascendancy. They're gonna be the winners in Extra Time if there is one.

B.O.T!

Edit: Victory! Nando is gracing the game with his presence!

I think it shows the strength in depth the Spanish have when they can bring on Cesc, Torres and Navas. The Dutch don't really have any real quality on the bench...

Hmn, Villa for Torres.

Good or bad?

Someone needs to score... > 100 minutes with no goals == boring.

Two yellows = Red got what he deserved just which they could have scored from the free kick

Remeber the game is not all about scoring but the defense as well. The first half was boring, but not the second half. Lots of great defence going on.

Nooo.. it's unfair bcause I want us to win.

Simple

oooooh, that was close that free kick.
