I don't think that is ESPN. That appears to be a feed problem from the satellite.

How much does the injury sub for Italy hurt them later?

Gotta think that'll impact strategy and half time/second half subs.

How long did you guys lose the feed for? I lost it for less than ten seconds but did see some pixilization for about two minutes.

Strange that ESPN3 was delayed on both losing and regaining the feed.

Spain has taken the foot off the gas, not liking it

Holy smokes. Anyone else on DirecTV not lose it for that long?

Agh, hard to see Cesc pull back there.

That's a pretty obvious tactical change based on the Italian play in the last few games. Mark Mario tightly and cut off the space for Pirl
ne of the annoucers says that Spain has let up... I think they've purposefully done so in order to frustrate the Italian side. Let them get a bit more tired and run off their aggression due to being down. Then ramp it up at the very end of the second half, trying to put Italy in a 2-0 hole for half.

Arbeloa doesn't seem to strike much fear when he comes down the right side.

Ramos is much better at that IMO. It's a shame he's forced to play CB (even though people say that's his natural position) because he can't overlap on the wing.

Absolutely. And a perfect pass. Loving Barcelona's new left back.

And then, a goregous piece of skill by Xavi at midfield. Holy ####.

Still pissed he got sold to Barça. I'm sure he forced Valencia's hand being Catalan and all.

Probably. But given that he only had a year left on his contract, he could dictate his destination to a large degree.I think that was Spain's best half of football in the tournament so far.

It was a great goal, but you were still right about Silva. I was literally complaining about him right before he put it in. He just isn't on the same page as the other guys sometimes.

Honestly, I think it´s because he doesn't play for RM or Barça.

Game was very good until Italy went down to ten men. Shame, might have been a great second half.

True. That said, I think Spain came out with the idea of putting to rest the whole "Spain is boring" angle today. It was great to see the energy they had today.
NewlyRetired

Totally agree. Instead of playing keep away with the intent of doing nothing but keep away, they actually moved forward with some real urgency to their game. Very nice to see.

Amazing to think the Spain was regarded as a perennial underachiever prior to Euro 2008. A fantastic 4 years for these players.
