WC Group H - Saudi Arabia v Spain [R]

[Can't stop the rush...]

No thread for this yet!??!?!

Anyways, Joaquín is tearing it up out there.

 

[tuffgong]

did the goalie for KSA really make 17 saves?

 

[Joe Star]

Yes he did. I think Spain just equalled England in number of chances muffled, heck....Spain mightve even beaten em.

 

[Crusad3r]

crap match.

some spanish players showed why they are in the bench, and they dont even deserve to be in the world cup :

- Salgado
- Albelda
- Marchena
- Iniesta (Guti must be at home thinking "WTF!!")

In the other hand Joaquin and Cesc had some nice actions.

 

[Back Door Skip]

Boring game, I dozed after the first goal. Woke up about at about stoppage time and saw it was still 1-0. I was pretty surprised.

 

[MaSsiVe]

disastrous second half by Spain, the Saudis could have easily scored a goal if they knew how to finish decently.

disastrous? the second half was a joke, i feel ashamed.

- Iniesta (Guti must be at home thinking "WTF!!")

Yeah Iniesta has been dissapointing... I would add Villa to that list, Reyes is in a much better form.

But it has been a very relaxed match, we cannot take any conclussions, neither bad nor good.

You'd think you'd learn how to finish if you were given a bucketload of cash and something like this for every goal...

ah well, i'm sure i speak for all of us when i say this world cup will just never be the same without the saudis around

 

[MaSsiVe]

Saudi goal scorers will be given one of those?
damn....

Raul was amazing. Now I understand why he's in the NT. What a performance. Unbelievable.

Haha was specting any Barça fan mentioning Raul after talking about Iniesta.

Raul at least had 2 uncalled penalties over him, playing out of position (he isn't CF) and didn't lose N balls like Iniesta, your gifted playmaker :fool:

 

[Virgo]

the spanish press makes me sick.
