God no, I missed it.

 

[Awesome Animals]

I always want to know who swapped shirts with who. Who did Iniesta get?

 

[Mr Cola]

Now the baddies are done time for the main event

CMON IRELAND!

 

[fuenf]

Torres lolling out Balotelli

 

[Regulus Tera]

Hope it's a 0-0 with a shitload of missed chances from both sides.

I was only wrong about the score. :lol

 

[zomgbbqftw]

sucked an entire match? no, he didn't. he was pretty great in the first half (best dutch player, too)) and was decent all-around, but he failed to score any goals.

Which is pretty shit for a striker. He even had a couple of sitters which he missed, one was even an air kick. RVP was fucking shit the entire game, Huntelaar should have started.

 

[Alucard]

Very good match. Both teams showed they have offensive creativity. Can't believe I'm actually looking forward to seeing Italy play another match in a major tournament. Looks like they've stopped putting 8 guys back. Nice to see.

 

[Socreges]

I want to see Torres' pass completion percentage.

0% maybe?

 

[Shoogoo]

Great match. Iniesta MVP for me

 

[keit4]

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

FUCK YOU TORRES!

 

[UV-6]

Well played to both teams. Good match.

 

[survivor]

Good game with great second half

 

[gundamkyoukai]

really good game , great football all around .

 

[Clegg]

Iniesta, Pirlo or Busquets MoTM for me.

 

[macksplack]

great game, it could have gone either way.

it's the best match yet ,such entertaiment will rarely be displayed this EC

 

[Scum]

Thank God that crap is out of the way. Now for a proper game of football between Ireland and Croatia.

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Should I see the next game? I don't want it to be boring.

 

[Inversive]

Great game. No Llorente was bizzare though.

 

[operon]

Ireland need a win, would do wonders for our chances of getting out of the group, one sack and a cat needed

 

[santi_yo]

F*ck you, Torres.

 

[Yen]

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

FUCK YOU TORRES!

Did they "deserve" to win? Do you support Barça, per chance?

 

[rinse82]

Ireland 2-0

 

[bud]

Which is pretty shit for a striker. He even had a couple of sitters which he missed, one was even an air kick. RVP was fucking shit the entire game, Huntelaar should have started.

it would've been shit if it had been huntelaar, but rvp is not strictly a poacher. he actually contributes to the netherlands' passing game and created a few great chances, too. he was linking up really well in the first half.

 

[Diablos54]

Great game, both teams looked good.

Now it's time for Ireland to top the group!

 

[ektoll]

Superb game overall, I'm a litlle bit sad that Italy didn't win, especially with this gorgeous attack of Marchisio, but Spain was so dangerous in the end that I'll settle with the draw.



Really proud of the Squadra Azzura

 

[Korez]

No Marchisio gif? :O

 

[Igo]

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

FUCK YOU TORRES!

Already forgotten Balotelli and Di Natale's other chance?

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Italy should have won, but only slightly. Spain picked up their performance in the second half.

 

[F#A#Oo]

See you again in the Final Spain...GG

 

[Arjen]

Best thread title so far lol.
Italy was pretty impressive, shame they couldn't keep up the pace long enough.
Best match i've seen so far.

 

[mxgt]

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

No they fucking didn't.

 

[Envelope]

I only caught the last 7 minutes of the game, it looked like it was a good one, though.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Iniesta was dazzling, but Pirlo and Marchisio were immense for Italy.

Torres playing his last minutes of the tournament, surely. Llorente should get the nod from now on.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Bad choices and missed chances but it seems like the commentators can't wait to stick the boot in on Torres

Spain looked better with him on IMO but he may not feature again

 

[Kazerei]

The coach was right not to start with Torres

 

[Dark Schala]

Iniesta should get man of the match. He did some good stuff.

Torres fucking up multiple times was disappointing (but I guess it was expected).

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

No they didn't.

 

[hylje]

Problem with Torres is, that he never is in the same wavelength than rest of the team. And rare to see smart moves from him. But that midfield domination is just candy for my eyes.

 

[LeleSocho]

Spain deserved to win 3-1 at least...

FUCK YOU TORRES!

what? how?

 

[markao]

Which is pretty shit for a striker. He even had a couple of sitters which he missed, one was even an air kick. RVP was fucking shit the entire game, Huntelaar should have started.

No he was not shit the entire game, he just panicked the two (3) times he had a great change, but besides that he played some great football (combinations/passing).


Entertaining match, godlike Iniesta and now hopefully great F1 race.

 

[Arjen]

What? Hell no

 

[Korez]

Principino <3

 

[norinrad]

lol @ Euro of Baloltelli and Trolles

 

[Melfice7]

Hey Spain if you don't want Llorente borrow him to Portugal thx :<

This guy is Spain's answer to doicare

Possession = automatic win in some people's books

 

[operon]

Viera needs someone to whisper in his ear the names etc he can't remember

 

[Scum]

Cesc replaces Alonso. Llorente up front.

 

[Brinbe]

If Lolrres bothered to play-in Navas, instead of failing on the lob, they probably would have won.

 

[Inversive]

Iniesta was dazzling, but Pirlo and Marchisio were immense for Italy.

Torres playing his last minutes of the tournament, surely. Llorente should get the nod from now on.

Llorente should have started. Spains lack of a striker in the first half was evident.

 

[fuenf]

lol Kahn calling Torres out for always going to the right side in 1on1 situations with the goalkeeper.

 

[Paracelsus]

Amen.
