Must be the ball

If Spain start with two upfront they're winning this easily. If Torres wasn't quite fit they should have started with the Llorente and Villa.

Jesus Navas and these anxiety attacks, damn. Must really suck. Looks like he's getting over it though.

Yup, it's the Jose Mourinho effect. Forces the superior teams to really bring their game and be more agressive from the outset.

If you say so

Fabregas banner :lol:

eeeeeewwwww

Mick McCarthy: "Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down ... "

Villa should have hit that with his left.

Casillas

Spain have no one to put those crosses on. Going to be difficult without Torres out there.

Started as a striker, him and Cesc used to come back from games with about 5 each, each game apparently. Very good going forward. Aah that makes sense then.

Howard Webb is fucking things up. That isn't a foul.

Howard Webb ... what are you doing?

Pique's composure in those situations is incredible for a centre back.

Ramos ... what a plonker.

Xabi Alonso is a lot better suited for that role though. Busquets is the holding midfielder and Xavi is more of a deeper playmaker, and so I think Fabregas would have been a better option as the most forward of the three than Alonso.

Wanted us to take a punt on him when he left Man City. Most on here didn't seem to rate him though. Has been at St. Etienne since then.

Xabi Alonso good player. Would I have him ahead of Fabregas though? Never!

I'm calling an upset here. Senderos and Derdiyok will play well. Switzerland to win 1 - 0 or 2 - 1.

Chile are going to end up drawing this if they don't get this second goal.

Found that an odd choice also.

What a save ... give the keeper some credit!

Sanchez come on! Had to tuck that away. Lovely football.
