That was a magnificent half of football

Boring?
Those 2 goals were just so beautiful.

A lot of critics are keeping low right this min - great stuff.

um, do you guys not notice any difference in Spain's approach?

shh dont disturb the crowing

faster, more incisivexp
Italy have been decent I think.

believe this is what's technically known as a schooling
― coopflaggypost (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:38 (twelve years ago) link
decent wont be enough here

Iniesta, my G_d!

Alba's first touch for the goal is incredible
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:40 (twelve years ago) link
yupfinish not too shabby either

argh the 'how can you say this is boring' thing's daft. they were tedious as fuck against france. today they've been great.

200 boring games1 non-boring game

how's lawro doin'?
― Chris, Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:47 (twelve years ago) link
It's largely down to Italy playing really well I think. Spain beating nobodies is like a grand prix where the winner leads start-to-finish.
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:47 (twelve years ago) link
why english ppl are retards = favouring a free header from a pinpoint cross over welbeck's backheel volley in the same game
― dis civilization and its contents (nakhchivan), Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:47 (twelve years ago) link
they were conserving their energy vs France once they saw how terrible the French were

but did he mean it

smdh at boring Spain

One priceless Lawro moment, when thingy mentioned Pirlo's quote about losing the final being like going to Rome and not seeing the Pope: "done that a few times"

Nakchivan OTM re: omission of Welbeck goal.
Italian goal coming soon...

I only wish that England could be this boring.

i just find it funny that fans of england, scotland etc can call anyone boring

Any second now, just you wait
― Özil Gummidge (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:55 (twelve years ago) link
the whole point is Spain don't have to be boring. They could be a lot more exciting than they are. How hard is that to understand?
― Number None, Sunday, 1 July 2012 19:56 (twelve years ago) link
Casillas has been excellent
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:02 (twelve years ago) link
Eeh, this could get bloody
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:04 (twelve years ago) link
that's a penalty
― Number None, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:07 (twelve years ago) link
games over
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:08 (twelve years ago) link
balotelli has been very quiet.

Yeah xp Italy should close up really, this is done
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:10 (twelve years ago) link
Motta was an amateur mistake of the coach
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:10 (twelve years ago) link
I don't think he was injured when he came on
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:11 (twelve years ago) link
yeah but he didnt play for a while, and didnt warm up enough
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:13 (twelve years ago) link
also, no more subs after 60 min?
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:14 (twelve years ago) link
the motta sub seemed strange anyway, a less attacking player than montolivo at 0-2
rm might have been tiring but with only 1 sub left, it was rash
― dis civilization and its contents (nakhchivan), Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:16 (twelve years ago) link
exactly
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:17 (twelve years ago) link
Italian goal just around the corner
― Özil Gummidge (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:17 (twelve years ago) link
xps Maximum of three subs, Motta himself was the third sub (Italy had an injury and had to use one really early on)
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:18 (twelve years ago) link
as i said it was a mistake
― nostormo, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:19 (twelve years ago) link
Torres to get the most tragic golden boot

Liked the "fishes and loaves job" as well.

Can't wait for the World Cup and see how the Spanish team (certainly replacements for a tiring Iniesta & Xavi) will do against Brazil & Argentina in their own back yard.
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 1 July 2012 20:25 (twelve years ago) link
good chance Spain will also win the next World Cup - almost all pkayers under 30 years old.
