Congrats Xavi :tu

Not the best match no. Portugal was good opposition for Spain though. To me it seems that Spain always forgets too actually shoot towards the goal. They just keep looking for the combination until they're actually making combinations in the goal... Today they were the luckiest in the shootout.

Good luck in the final, but I'm still hoping for Germany :)

absolutely....., a lottery

Sergio Ramos is the craziest guy on earth, he missed his last penalty kick paying with R.Madrid and that caused the elimination of the Champions League, and today he hit "Panenka" style :shock: :lol: , awesome, he has the biggest.....

Panenka invented the chip penalty in 1976!

Spain is going to win it again, no matter who the opponent will be.

Del Bosque is a really funny guy...why was Torres out for the whole match? To play without striker is very risky...

Negredo is a stricker... And Torres is completely out of his soccer since a long time...

Ok... I'm now completely fed up with Spain/Barça way of playing... I truly love Xavi (the player ^^) but sorry, those teams are playing boring soccer... I love soccer (and sports) for other reasons ! One of those main reasons must be something like entertainment...
Just hope for Italia or Germany to win this title and show people that you can play and win with another soccer than Spain or Barça (who avoid the fight, the fear, by keeping the ball all the time...).

I can imagine how the Spanish fans are feeling now. Its like the Dutch fans in 2010. The football is atrocious but they keep winning so who cares? :lol:

I know the finals arent always the best matches but im really dissapointed with what ive seen so far in this tournament.

Ok but he did very well vs. Barca and Bayern in the CL semi and final.

If we beat Italy, this time we take the title. The Spaniards are not the same team as they were two or four years back. David Villa and Poyol can not be replaced by anyone.
Germany will beat Spain by a head´er from the german-spaniard Mario Gomez. 8)

Hey what s about Laurent Blanc? Does he still continue as french team boss? I hope so... he did a great job.

If we play the final against the germans i think Llorente will play, and btw Silva is out of fuel and it would be a good thing if Pedro plays that match as well.

Don't think Germany can equalize that.

If they do it will be one hell of a second half.

I thought the Italian defense was pretty vulnerable but Germany simply missed scoring a goal in the first 20 minutes.

Awesome goals by Balotelli, I must admit that.

Italy is paying a great match, deserves to play the final
