    Alonso is not having a good day.

    Gollllllllllll, the South American minnows have pounced on a moment of madness from Alonso, and its majestic play that carves the frail Spanish defense apart like a cheap suit, and Vargas with the composure of a grizzled assassin, slots a bullet right into the heart of the Spanish armada


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    Another one for the goal line technology crew, with Alonso there.

    Better get out the spare wheel for Spain.

    Very nicely worked and taken goal

    Spain were poor at the back, plenty of time for them to come back but I am not sure they have the stomach or legs for the fight

    The certainly don't look like eventual winners anyway

    Andre Agassi has these guys playin some great football.

    We are 13 minutes in, the Spanish wheel has started turning. The touch has become assured, the passsing adventurous, the pressing is aggressive.

    Panic at the back and a goal. Alonso has been rubbish.

    Alonso shouldnt be on the pitch ,he should have been dropped instead of Xavi ,himself and Busquets are not a good pairing.

    Big mistake by Del Bosque not to bring Diego Lopez as a goalkeeper.

    I'd thank that twice if I could.

  • Registered Users Posts: 661 ✭✭✭derm0j073


    Xavi not just on the bench but they made him sit beside Torres .

    Control panel, appearance settings, theme down at the bottom.

    I hope Spain somehow make it to the final, I want to see as much of this comedy defending as possible.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    The Spanish bull is tired and weary from many fights.

    The Chilean matador is swift and nimble.

    The matador strikes a deep blow to the body of the bull.

    The bull is still alive but looking weakened.

    Doubt is in it's soul; can it survive?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Costa looks slow and out of shape.

    It's not the same one as his, I get that ugly orange/slate grey one.

    On topic: These free kicks will wreck Chile

    Spain should park the bus. Too bad it has no wheels.

    The Spanish bull is going to end up in a Tesco lasagne after this tournament.

    Paddies are still only offering 15/8 in Spain to win!!!

    That was very intentional from Costa

    He really has a ****ty side to him


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 161 ✭✭egghead.


    Chile's keepers distribution is appalling.

    Vidal must be still unfit becuase he's being player so high up the midfield which restricts his game completely

    Ah, it's in edit options for the control panel, and then down at the bottom again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Chile can't keep giving free kicks away like this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,071 ✭✭✭✭wp_rathead


    Always had soft spot for Vargas since we used to clean up with him in his Uni de Chile days in the Football Gambling forum.. shame never did well with Napoli


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    Who's the cocommentator on bbc? He's good he actually knows what the role of a co should be.

    that's what I meant


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    Danny Mills I think

    Danny Murphy

    Edit: Too slow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Yeah I like him a lot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    Spain definitely have enough about them to beat this Chile side, but having lost the 1st game in that fashion, and now being 1 nil down, its gonna be a huge test of character.

    One they've been looking like failing ever since going behind.

    Very predictable for Spain.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,139 ✭✭✭westernfrenzy


    Spain are terrible, jesus.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,446 ✭✭✭glued


    Busquets and Alonso aren't playing well at all


  • Registered Users Posts: 897 ✭✭✭NyOmnishambles


    Have been very impressed with Danny Murphy in the studio and in the Co-commentators role

    He was an intelligent player and seems a knowledgeable bloke too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,928 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Alonso is nailed on for a red card if he stays on in the second half.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,292 ✭✭✭GreNoLi


    jajajaj.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,664 ✭✭✭dirkmeister
