Spain deserved to be champions, I don't know what you're really talking about simply because they lost one game in the group stages, using that logic, since Netherlands won every single game up until the final, they should have won it. That's not how football works, Inter Milan lost to Barca and a newbie team in the group stages, are you saying they are not deserved Champions League winners? I mean if I looked at Italy's qualifying campaign, or Brazil before them, or France etc I could find one loss in there.
Also I thought something would come back to bite Robben and I was right.
A team wins a world cup with an average of 1,1 goals per match.
This is football's cancer.
Yes, let us take out the fact that almost every opponent they played against them happened to be playing extremely good defensive football.
No, you should realistically look at the fact, Xavi has made more chances than anyone else this World Cup, Spain have had more shots on goal than any other team, they have done more passes this tournament and Xavi happens to be the highest passer in this tournament.
To call Spain football cancer is ludicrous, the evidence just does not stack up outside of some selective figures. If you want to call them something, call them play acting sissy little girls who know how to moan like a real woman.
Over all happy for Fabregas but get the hell away from those Barca players as soon as possible. Felt Netherlands consistently let van Persie get isolated and didn't really support him, could have been a different game if Robben actually knew he existed, felt sorry for him.
To be fair, Netherlands should have been reduced to ten, even nine, men much much earlier then they did. Overall though, I agree Forlan is player of the tournament, he grabbed Uruguay kicking and screaming to the final, would have hoped he could at least win fourth place but alas, ze Germans were just a bit better than his team.
Overall the world cup continues to provide a good break between wishing players don't get hurt to the start of real football.
