Daaamn... what is wrong with Spain tonight? Very uncharacteristic of them to play like this. Fatigue? Home court? Brazil is just bulldozing through. I remember the last world cup when Brazil had to resort to dirty tactics. They could fancy dribble the **** out of the game, but couldn't finish. Now they have scorers. Crayyy. Also why hasn't Spain tried putting Fabs or David Silva? They could have used that spark in the second half.
??? I had a list of teams I want Brazil to beat to be considered the best, which is why I want to see how they fare against Germany. Dunno what you mean here...
how torres still on the team? i don't even know. i never thought casillas a good goalie just because of his height
USA would have won the whole thing. They don't have players with popped collars. They know this isn't 2008. I'm assuming popped collars just arrived on the beaches of brazil.
Brazil didn't deserve to win by 3 goals, but Brazil played Spain better than anyone on recent football history. Given most of the squad is young, and this squad still has plenty of chemistry to develop, things are looking excellent for Brazil.
I'd say they deserved to win by 4+. Took selfish shots and late passing (offside) towards the end that could have extended the lead. Spain was just way out of it. If a country can out-beautiful Spain playing the game, it would be Brazil. I hope their road to the WCF goes like this: Spain, Netherlands, Germany. And I hate David Luis.
España had problems with Nigeria and Italy during the first two stages. They couldn't score against Italy's who has the best defense. I was worried that Brasil's defense would make careless errors (ie Thiago Silva vs Italy and David Luiz). They were not perfect tonight but David Luiz did redeem himself tonight and played very poised, was pleasently surprised. Game would have been easily 4-0 if not more after the red card on Pique. Brasil is looking very popular to be 'sexta campeon' for next year. Especially at home. FYI - España 1 - 4 Argentina España 0 - 4 Portugal right after España won the WC10 title.
He just won the Golden Boot (most goals in a tournament with 5) for the 2nd straight time. He won it at the Euros too.
his goals were against the weakest team who played no defense, Tahiti. He did not deserve the golden boot. Fred should have taken it. IMHO
Weak Spain today, hats off to Brazil for a great performance. I'm literally lmao at you guys blaming this on Casillas lol, I guess you watched a different game than me. Brazil at Maracana is really hard to beat, and they will be a force to reckon with next world cup. I'm still puzzled at Ramos kicking the pk??
Because he is still a quality international striker. He scores goals. He didn't score today but that happens. Re. Casillas, please don't ever repeat those words to other footy fans. It's preferable for a goalie to be fairly tall but height has never been a major barrier for a goalkeeper to excel. Casillas didn't seem to have any issues over the past decade for club or country and he doesn't have any issues now. (especially with Mourinho gone).
Go re-read your post and you'll get my point. (I've seen your other posts and English doesn't seem like a problem for you to type, hence my question. It just didn't make sense, but whatever, nothing major).
