    I have felt that Spain haven't been in top gear yet and still have a lot to give .

    I think they will come out tonight with a more ruthless game and win by a couple.

    A dull, soul destroying 1-0 win for Spain.

    Praying for a Portugal win.

    I may be wrong but is he not carrying a minor injury? Would not be suprised to see him on tonight. He did very well against Portugal in WC2010.

    If Fifa is anything to go by 6-1 to Spain. Fabregas hat-trick, Iniesta with two and a Casillias peno :pac:

    Definitely fancy Portugal tonight. Best equipped team to beat Spain I think. Then Germany to win the final.

    My Spanish is poor but I think Casillas just ordered the garden salad and a bottle of house red.

    Both were looking for their car keys and if you find them, drop them into the Real Madrid ticket office.

    Coentrão has been unreal so far. Xavi, Silva and Iniesta pulling the strings in Portugal's half.

    No it was a very clear dive in fairness, you could see it in real time, he was obstructed slightly but was going for the ball, realised he couldn't get it and went down...

    If they actually stopped diving for a sec they'd be in on goal.

    Fair play to Ray Houghton....word for word translation of the few words the camera caught Del Bosque saying.

    That is fcuking brainless by the ref, great bit of skill by Nani and he brings it back for a free?

    Spain will probably get a goal out of nowhere and win 1-0 as usual. WTF ref? And they say there's been good redding at this tournament!
