Interesting game. snoopcester Send a noteboard - 05/07/2010 10:17:46 AM
Then the second penalty. Cheap, sure, but I don't get the yellow card... if that is a penalty, it should be a red.


I think he gave the penalty and the yellow for it being clumsy instead of cynical.

and the retake. of course he'd miss that one, he had already celebrated a goal. But the subsequent take-down of fabregas should have been another penalty every day of the week.


They really should have switched penalty takers. Should have retaken the first pen as well... but to be honest I'm not bothered about players encroaching unless they actually become active - the Spanish players running in made no difference to the keeper saving (or not saving) the penalty.

and the goal? Strange... a ball shouldn't hit the posts that many times within 2 seconds.


I just think it was a let down they didn't hit the crossbar a well.

Crazy I tell you. But the Spaniards have a problem right now; they are up against Germany, and they can't keep playing this bad against that opposition, even if Müller is out. Klose still has another goal left in him this tournament.


I don't think Spain are playing that badly - pretty much every team they have played against has been more worried about defending than attacking. Against a team that actually wants to get a goal themselves Spain will have a lot more room to work in.

Right. Offsides is determined at the time a ball is kicked. Aemon - 04/07/2010 04:52:22 AM 300 Views
Yeah, Pedro shooting meant it was a new situation where Villa was onside Floffe - 03/07/2010 11:56:30 PM 332 Views
I missed the actual goal, but saw the penalties. Apparently there was also infringement when... Liam - 04/07/2010 02:44:37 AM 424 Views
Torres is coming back from a fairly recent surgery. I assume that's what's ailing him. *NM* Aemon - 04/07/2010 04:55:27 AM 293 Views
Maybe, but his surgery was quite a while ago now. He juestn't doesn't look as sharp as normal. *NM* Liam - 04/07/2010 08:52:58 AM 297 Views
Hah, " juestn't". I'm not even going to edit that. Liam - 04/07/2010 12:52:40 PM 356 Views

Was their soccer really this bad (article inside) The_Muted_Grimaud - 04/07/2010 07:53:30 AM 451 Views
That's a bit of an exaggeration for comic effect, I'd say. Legolas - 04/07/2010 09:51:25 AM 410 Views
I thought the ball was jinxed Sidious - 04/07/2010 09:57:03 AM 454 Views
