    was that alonso shooting from the half way line? So close.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,563 ✭✭✭kinaldo


    Not sure who (Alonso probably) almost scored from the half way line there. No commentary on RTE online.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Don't think i'll even bother watching this one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,225 ✭✭✭Chardee MacDennis

    Get the lead out Spain! They are my fifth pick of a 5 game accumulator.

    I don't understand this at all, Spain don't need to win tonight, the player probably aren't even arsed with the match.

    Greece won't want to go home in absolute disgrace with 0 points.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Tom65


    I'd doubt that even the good people of Greece and Spain are watching it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    That's what we call a purchase! Get in there son!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,563 ✭✭✭kinaldo


    Alonso cracks the post with a ferocious shot from 30 yards out.

    Spain, while they are taking it easy, are also looking to preserve their unbeaten record this year and extend their winning run to 9, which would an all time record for them.

    They look a bit toothless up front without Torres and Villa though, and could do with some leadership from a certain someone from Madrid. Injury to one of their two strikers could spell disaster.

    Odds wise it made sense, and the Greek defense had looked hapless in the other two games.

    Yep, nice goal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Spain starting to pick up some momentum now, they just need to find an end product.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,357 ✭✭✭emc2

    Guiza. Quite fortunate actually. Ball was wiped in and his marker slipped, put a bullet header on it to send it past the keeper.

    I know I have a bias, but Spain deserved the win for all the chances they created. However, this performance illustrates that if Villa or Torres has an off day or gets injured, they could well be fooked. Alot of they're play reminded me of Arsenal in 2006/2007 where they would try and walk the ball innto the net, and were severely lacking a clinical frontman.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,563 ✭✭✭kinaldo


    Deserved 2-1. Spanish reserves totally outplaying the former European Champions in the second half.

    Oddly enough everything is going my way so far in this tournament...

    3 out of 3 for Spain and Holland

    the French, the Greeks, the Swiss and the Austrians eliminated

    Turkey's amazing comeback

    Germany not winning their group and Portugal winning theirs.

    And Russia winning tonight.

    Portugal v Spain final por favor!
