    The World and European Champions? Who are ranked No.1 on the planet? And have a 100% record in this tournament? And are winning right now?

    Yep such a joke!

    if Spain don't start pressing, they're asking for trouble.

    so easy for them in attack though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,889 ✭✭✭✭klose


    Soldado wtf

    I hope they drop the news on him at half time. Did he take a dump in Palace's dressing room or is my brother taking the piss


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,365 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Pedro not as good as Neymar at winning frees it seems.

    There was **** in the dressing room all right. I dunno who deposited it though.


    Some glorious play by Spain here. Still, they look get-atable.
    Brazil or Italy might well be able to get a few goals.
    Seriously poor attempts at finishing by Soldado.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,775 ✭✭✭✭Gbear


    Ray-moss to Pedrew to Fadbregas apparently. Good man Brian.

    Hilarious miss.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    Hypnotic passing from Spain, finally finding the incision and Fabregas very unlucky not to score.

    Of course I said they are a great team before and I was only referring to the caricature of Spain.

    Can you describe some of nigerias chances as well?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Link for Tahiti v Uruguay on RTE website. No commentry or graphics though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,365 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Spain are begging Nigeria to score here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,157 ✭✭✭Johnny Utah


    Spain are playing some top quality football. The first half against Uruguay and this so far are much better than Spain looked at Euro 2012 (except the final)

    Spain are a great team, who also play some great passing football...

    We are truly lucky that we get to watch this team live. They will go down in history!

    Soldado isnt the answer to the no 9


  • Site Banned Posts: 1,856 ✭✭✭paddy kerins


    Busquets going down like he was stabbed there


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Now to watch the BBC punditry....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    4-0 to Urugray. Need Tahiti to keep the gap at 5 or less.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,018 ✭✭✭QikBax


    Is there a more hateful player in World football than Busquets?

    Nigeria will be wondering how they didn't score a couple, not sure who it is but they have a forward who resolutely refuses to shoot with his left peg, cost them a few direct shots at goal.

    Hypnotic as in Nigeria can only stand and watch as Spain move the ball around the pitch, waiting for the chance to arise, waiting for a moments loss of concentration. They found it and they were very unlucky not to score a second from it.

    A fine half from Spain, started incredibly quick, found a great goal and, apart from a few minutes after the goalA, they've controlled the game.

    I'm a united fan and I still think I hate Busquets more.

    At least Suarez is in-your-face with how scummy he is. Like a panto villain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod

    It was a foul, he doesn't make a big deal of it. Honestly sometimes it's like a witch-hunt.
