bar the first game Torres hasn't set the tournament a-light yet

villa on the under hand has been the best striker of the tournament

what's the betting Torres scores tonight :pac:

LuckyLloyd

Up for the US obv.

LuckyLloyd

USA! USA! USA!

Great start from the underdogs.

Usa playing great stuff

Team USA almost in front with a vertical overhead kick in the red zone by Davies. Then Clint "C-Demp" Dempsey almost converted a field goal from way downtown. Good hustle so far.

Was watching it on BBC3 - had to turn it off and put on RTE2 - they were commentating ahead of the picture, and i thought that was an RTE trait

Mr Alan

Mr Alan

Bradley for usa is right handy player and still only 21
looks a promising player

mike65

He has had a decent tournie, the first half showing up sloppy work esp at the back and the lack of a "Blockbuster" option for Spain - that player who through sheer phsyical force can find a way though the congestion.

Not sure this is Spain's cast iron first choice midfield. Iniesta, Senna and Silva should all have a say before the World Cup. Maybe Spain are treating this as a testing ground before the biggie next summer.

Xavi has been ****e, as has Ramos. Passing is gone to ****e.

Barr

Spain look like scoring soon

He got a couple of sub appearances.

end to end, entertaining stuff. USA with some heroic defending.

Mr Alan

don't buy that whole "match fit" lark myself.

USA making some great last ditch saves here.

Were you hoping for a Spain -v- Springboks rematch too?

LuckyLloyd

USA!! USA!! USA!!

Heart baby. All heart.

G'wan USA, The sooner Torres gets a rest the better !

quarryman

nasty lash out from Torres there, he can have narky streak like that at times when things aren't going his way.

come to think of it, considering the liverpool core to this team, the match is like watching them in the premiership, succumbing to a weaker team who have more belief and determination. spain, likewise, are bottling it.
