A bit shabby, Alonso.

...

I hope your suitably ashamed of that

:rofl:

Yet another goalless first half, time for Spain to start taking a few chances and showing a bit of flair.

Spain had 67% of play in the first all they need to do now is put all that possession into goals

If Spain Puyol their eggs in one Busquet it'll be a Silva medal, Xavi got it right or not? GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!

Wow haha go switzerland!

Oh, [censored] me.

Swiss 1-0 up.

What was that Casillas? Reina is the best keeper in the world by a mile.

1-0 to the Swiss oh dear another bloody bet down

» Sat May 28, 2011 8:16 am

:laugh: at the Swiss player roll kicking the Spanish defender out of the way. Classy.

1-0 to the Swiss oh dear another bloody bet down

I'm 1-2 down so far too

Spanish defence looked like Swiss cheese.

Anyone know why Casillas didn't get sent off btw, or Pique? If it had been a penalty they'd have gone off. What's the rule on scything down the opposition and conceding a goal anyway?

Silly Spainards took 61 minutes to work out that leaving the best striker in the world on the bench is a silly idea.

Edit:

No idea but if you remember Liverpool v Chelsea in the 2005 Champions League semi-final second leg then a similar thing happened. Baros went past Cech who took him down and Garcia smashed it in (:P) and we got the goal on advantage but Cech was allowed to stay on despite being the last man.

lol, Iniesta shot and the Swiss goalie was just like "oh crap..."

» Sat May 28, 2011 4:06 am

Nice shot by Xabi!

» Fri May 27, 2011 8:59 pm

What a shot.

I've missed that sort of thing :wub: :cold:

» Fri May 27, 2011 11:20 pm

HOLY[censored]WTF!!!

» Sat May 28, 2011 4:23 am

Oh dear very nearly 2-0

» Fri May 27, 2011 9:02 pm

Bloody hell. Spanish defence have gone mental.

» Sat May 28, 2011 3:50 am

Bloody hell. Spanish defence have gone mental.

They just lose it, don't they? Chile are drooling right now.

» Sat May 28, 2011 9:42 am

They just lose it, don't they? Chile are drooling right now.

And probably pissing themselves with laughter.

Bloody hell. Spanish defence have gone mental.

I told you - they're like Swiss cheese and at times the Swiss are cutting through it like a Swiss army knife. Now if only the referee whistled end at exactly 90:00 so I can say he's precise like a Swiss watch and then I can die as far as I'm concerned.

» Fri May 27, 2011 11:51 pm

The Swiss are looking to finish this (I don't believe I just said that

)

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:36 pm

Just got home and turned on the TV.

:rofl: <--- Me when I saw the score.

Could anyone sum up what the heck went wrong here?
