True, after Spain scored the first goal in the second half Russia had to push and give everything they got even leaving the defense a bit open to even off the score but, it just did not work...

[eitech]

@questionable names

NBA, TT v. ENG & ManU v. Chel.

For real '08 I've been off although the Trini game was out of pure national pride...

last year I was pretty much on point tho

[aR&D]

As i watched the Spain v Russia match the first opening 15mins both teams were doing the predictable "feeling out each other", with Russia looking really good in shape and passing. And then, upon Spain scoring that (beautiful) first goal, as if watching bhaghi boil down in de pot - Russia just lost all their nerve, spine, gumption and what ever other words there is to describe strength and resilience.

that was the most terrible match - from a neutrals point of view there was so far.

Yes I was backing Spain and they played beautiful football - but oh gosh man, is football i sit down to watch - not tidily-winks! - Russia lost their balls big time. Even their coach, from his body language had to be perplexed as to why his team were just not playing anymore. One Spanish goal sent the Russians in "deer in front of headlights" mode.

The final will be a great affair. It can go either way, with the Germans being the favorites BUT i am backing Spain.

(Just like how i backed ManU to win Champions League.... Hoots? )

[honda hoe]

[AYE_SOLDIER]

[Maserati]

In-form Spanish striker David Villa is almost certain to miss Sunday's Euro 2008 final against Germany, says team doctor Jesus Jimenez.

Villa, 26, injured a thigh muscle in Thursday's semi-final win over Russia.

[gfbl]

spain played real good without him tho. fabregas was bossing the midfield.

[AYE_SOLDIER]

i must give fabregas pips he certainly hold down that mid field last game

[cinco]

1 championship...thas not enough for them

Let them rock so with that nah man...if Spain win's it'll kill the lower vibe they worked so hard on building up

[teems1]

The problem Spain always had was the constant bickering between its provinces.

The Catalans, Andalusians, Basques, Valencians etc never got along with each other. Players refusing to play with others, or be coached by persons belonging to a particular region was the norm.

Now with this younger generation of footballers, who ignore the politics which existed before, play football as a proper unit and will perform much better. Also the blatant racism which was prevalent in Spanish Football appears to have been subdued.
