Kinda agree with spectator. Though some of Spain’s passing and fluidity was beautiful to watch, I couldn’t believe they didn’t have more serious cracks at goal. For example Villa’s chance at the end of the first-half. What the hell was a doing, that was the most retarded chip I’d ever seen. He should’ve just drilled his with his left foot. It’s what the Villa of 2006 would’ve done. Maybe he thinks he needs to be all fancy and shit now that he’s signed for Barca.

Although I personally could’ve care less if Spain get eliminated in the first round – in the end they only have themselves to blame – to raise the quality of the WC a bit(which it still needs) I’m hoping they come out and absolutely trounce Honduras in their next game. I’m waiting of the first 6-0 of this WC. Though I’d love Holland to do that to Japan of course :D :D

Ok, here comes crackpot conspiracy theory # 1 from me:

Do you suppose that the Spanish FA is disallowing Cesc Fabregas from playing to blackmail him back to La Liga? It’s the only way that not playing the Premiership’s leading scoring midfielder (19 goals, 19 assists!) against a team that certainly resembles a Stoke City or a Bolton makes sense to me.

Awesome game, I hope Spain won’t get past the group stage.

were spain playing with 9 midfielders? it looked like it. they looked like they put so much focus on possession and crisp passing that they forgot you’re supposed to eventually try to score a goal or two. they didn’t have that killer instinct which, to be fair, they would have had if torres had been fit going into the tournament. he was getting into all the right areas when he came on but had no touch, very rusty.

so well done, i bet no one was banking on the swiss. *cough* ahem.
