World Cup 2010 Blog: “Spain: The Trophy Hoist” plus 2 more |  |
| Posted: 01 Jul 2012 04:07 PM PDT Attempting to wade through YouTube after UEFA’s team of fun police has taken stand is akin to grabbing the ball off Andres Iniesta. A few have snaked their way through – most look like they were produced on an Apple II. But…Iker’s arms must be getting tired. The celebrations should be rather good too – what with them having lots of practice and all.

| Spain: Champions Of Everything Posted: 01 Jul 2012 01:37 PM PDT Pardon the familiarty: Spain’s brilliant. There was a chance at the half, but that all ended when Italy’s third substitute, Thiago Motta, yanked his hammy four minutes after coming on, at the hour mark. Thirty minutes of catching up to a brilliant Spain’s two-goal margin while a man don just ain’t gonna happen, and the celebrations began. These celebrations included a third from Fernando Torres (Golden Boot winner, by the by) and a fourth from Juan Mata. And now they can focus on becoming the second European side to win a World Cup outside of the continent in 2014. After Spain. Four years ago. Has it been said they’re brilliant yet?

| Posted: 01 Jul 2012 12:34 PM PDT Well, it appears as though the final night is to be Spanish for the third time in three – unless Italy can get their act together quite quickly, that is. One brilliant pass-back and header from Cesc to Silva (obviously) and a brilliant ball onto the newly-minty Jordi Alba from one Xavi is enough for a 2-0 lead heading into the half. Giorgio Chiellini has also gone off with an injury. So once again: tis a Spanish eve. [101gg]
