World Cup 2010 : NED vs ESP (Final)

The enduring 120 minutes of the World Cup 2010 Final make me a sleepyhead today. From the 1st minute of the match, Spain launched waves of attack to Holland's defence. But the effort only comes to fruit (?) only on the 116th minutes by the form of Andres Iniesta. The match also saw a handfull of fouls (47) and bookings (14). Personally, my credit goes to Jesus Navas coz he's the one who tear the Dutch tight defence and make way for the others to make moves. Olé Espanól !!!

World Cup 2010 : GER vs ESP

Spain, as I expected are through to the final for the first time. but this time, the credit goes to Puyol. For his header in a corner kick has make Spain finalist for the first time. Spain could have added one more but Pedro decided to play the ball for himself rather than passing it to non-marked and more skillfull Torres.

World Cup 2010 : PAR vs ESP

The one Germany will hv to mark during the Semi Final is David Villa. Spain should hv another tactic for the match to ensure path to final. David Villa is one goal short from levelling the all-time World Cup Campaign Spanish top scorer Raul Gonzales (9 goals). The Germans will surely do their best to deny that.

World Cup 2010 : ARG vs GER

The match between Argentina versus Germany last night was... nothing. The Maradona's side was powerless under the stunning moves of the Germans. From the 1st goal as early as 3rd minute, Argentina seems lose interest to win or to even plan an attack on Germany's defense. The first 2 goal was sweet. But I feel pity for the Argentinian fans when Germany scored the other 2. 2-0 was very conclusive, but 4-0???

World Cup 2010 : NED vs BRA

Only one word to describe Brasil's defeat to the Netherlands - Joga Bonito. Dunga's Seleção seems non-competetive in this stage of football. The young and ill-tempered lineup lacks of creativity to create real chances in the opponent's danger area. And due to the constant pressure from the Dutch side (similar the ones from the Ivory Coast match), the once leading Brasil broke to the aggresive play and literally gave two goals away. So, when you take Joga Bonito away from Brasil, the cup (and the fans) go away.

World Cup 2010 : ESP vs POR

Watched the Round of 16 game between Spain and Portugal. FMO, Torres should be substituted at half time as the replacement do produce some shots that gave others room to take a shot at the goal. The result, David Villa manage to squeeze between the Portugal defenders and scored at 63th minute. So, one of my fav team qualify to the quarter final.
