how does Spain respond to this? any big lineup changes coming?

De Gea in goal?

 

[Jobber]

He really should have passed it to his open man though.

 

[mquinnjr]

Gotta imagine Amsterdam would be a pretty good time right now.

 

[Ted Lange as your Bartender]

Wonder what the betting odds were of this score line?

 

[Slapdash]

Casillas is just putting on a clinic on what not to do as a keeper.

 

[Eephus]

wow

 

[QuizGuy66]

Spainhas to get the full 6 points now for sure. And against Chile that will be far from trivial.

-QG

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Probably the tolling of the bell for Iniesta and Xavi. What a rout.

 

[msommer]

Take that Tapas eaters!

Although there is nothing wrong with Tapas or a good Rioja or Priorat.

I don't remember the FT line, but the HT line for 2H was Holland 4.5/1, Spain EV

:swingandamiss:

 

[Norman Paperman]

Spain will regroup and beat Chile

 

[Premier]

Chile is going to take it to Spain also aren't they?

 

[Slapdash]

Spain will regroup and beat Chile

They lost the first game four years ago too

 

[The Gator]

RIP tippy tappy

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Spain will regroup and beat Chile

They pretty much have to, right? Their goal differential is shot so a draw wouldn't help them.

 

[TenTimes]

Actually starting to feel for the Spanish fans who shelled out the dinero to fly to Brazil expecting to see anything but this.

edit- then I remember how racist Spaniards are and I don't feel bad anymore

Not looking this poor though

Going to have to get through Brazil in the first knockout round this year - tall order.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Some one needs to drug test Holland right now

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Sexy sexy sexy

 

[msommer]

Holy Moly, that would have been goal of the tournament

 

[El Floppo]

holy ####.

 

[Norman Paperman]

HFS!! Holland look good

 

[B Maverick]

everyone wants a goal now!

Much different circumstances though. They utterly dominated Switzerland and gave up a counter. Today they are getting schooled in every phase of the game.

I still think they will go through but damn.......

 

[ffldrew]

Blow the whistle!!

If they continue to play like this, Chile will be playing Brazil

Not in the back, but they had the same impotent attack.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Ramos = not quick

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Poor Nando.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Torres ROTfLMAO!!

 

[Norman Paperman]

Spain have to hold in for 4 more minutes...

 

[mquinnjr]

Torres ROTfLMAO!!

 

[Jobber]

Holy choke on that shot.

 

[Slapdash]

Spain really really misses Puyol back there (as does Barcelona). Ramos and Pique is not pretty.

 

[TLEF316]

really Torres? Not sure it was possible to make me regret a 13th round draft pick....

 

[sdp1226]

Que mierda

 

[msommer]

Smackdown!

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Roberto and Ruud did a nice job on the tactics. Spain had some flank overloads but that left the CBs 1 v1 on RVP and Robben. Not pretty.

 

[Jobber]

Haha the 'ole's from the crowd.

[Christo]

I hate when people talk about games like this being revenge. No, Holland could have scored 10 and it still doesn't make up for losing in the World Cup final.

 

[TLEF316]

I mean seriously...REALLY Torres????

But I guess the Dutch players that were at the final four years ago feel pretty good right now...

Spain took a beating from Brazil in the Confed Cup last year, a little bit like today's game. I don't like their chances in a rematch.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Yup. Just chilling on a patio at Copacabana Beach in our suits.
