i can't believe you guys managed to add another 20 pages while i was gone
i did see all the games. the dutch looked very poor in the back. i couldn't understand how slow their defenders were especially in the extra-time. it was pathetic to watch. the midfield play was equally flat. it's just another tournament where the dutch disappointed me yet again
turkey played well, but will get destroyed in the semis because they will be missing the whole first team. and i don't trust the goalie playing in the defense.
italy was italy. they got punished for playing their defensive/boring game. well done spain, long time since they've been in the semi finals

I agree with everything you said!!!

 

[Behan]

go on Spain, crush the Russians

If we will play against Spain like in the quarterfinal, I hope there will be the final game with Russians But theoretically Spanish team still is more powerful

 

[flyingace]

the key to winning Russia is clear, force them to commit fauls, force some corners and wait for them to make one of their terrible deffensive mistakes. And somehow try to contain the russian attack (that's the not so easy part). So I guess the problems will be more defensive than offensive for Spain. I'm expecting a lot of goals for both sides .

The spanish midfield played very well yesterday especially when Xavi was there and we have to recognise also the great job the italian defese did. However the spanish strikers were really "uninspired", particularly Villa. Torres wasn't playing too well either but at least he was doing something more... when he was substituted for Güiza a player that doesn't convince me at all . In general I didn't like any of the substitutions that Luis Aragones did, Spain played much better with the original midfield. I also wonder why Camoranesi wasn't playing since the begining, he's a great player
But anyway, we played better, and even we weren't excessively dangerous for the italian defense, I think the final result is fair

omg I can't believe Spain won!!! They are a good team but come on! ITALY!!! Damn you Donadoni!! RESIGN!!! BRING BACK LIPPI!!!!!!

ah well I hope Germany and Spain will be in the final.

yesterday's match was very dissapointing

Its not like Italy played bad or something but they are just over careful!!
I was so sure Italy would win penaltys, but thank God for di Natale and others. It is about time for people to take Iker seriously, he had terrific season at Real Madrid and yeasterday his saves were unreal!!

 

[candysweet21]

^exactly. they were focusing more on defense then attack and that cost them the match.

Honestly ever since Donadoni stepped in, they've been playing very uneasy and focus on defense whereas with Lippi they had a good mixture of both but when they attacked they ATTACKED.

Buffon is a good goalkeeper so I was kind of dissapointed. It would have been nice to see them win the UEFA Cup after the World cup but alas.

Spain played very well yesterday and I was impressed.
I hope either Spain or Germany wins now.

 

[Nemezide]

well imo italy was always team who more worked on defense

 

[candysweet21]

haha but at least they won something before.


It's so funny watching the game with italian commentators... every single pass they do is like Bravo Grosso, Bravo Toni and everytime they approach the goal they practically start screaming. lol

 

[lakomka]

Miss the matches

 

[kezme44]
