Unfortunately for him, his reputation as a diving dynamo has overshadowed his ability on the pitch.

He has such a smarmy face too. He just looks like he'd murder your dog if he was barking too loud and then blame the kids next door.

 

[Kiraly]

Spain going to win every game with 1-0 confirmed.

 

[Fry]

I expected more from France and definitely more from this match.

Just score Ribery.

 

[K1LLER7]

Busquets has been brilliant.

Looking forward to seeing Silva v Coentrao next round.

 

[Nevasleep]

Flo Rida!!!

 

[Alx]

Spain deserves to win this one, but I wouldn't mind a 2-1 score. :/

 

[Sky Chief]

Croatia were so much better than France when they played Spain. This is a turd of a game.

Pretty much, Spain is in complete control. The French players can't even string together simple passes. No creativity at all, they look terrible. Spain is completely outclassing them.

 

[Kyoufu]

I expected more from France and definitely more from this match.

Just score Ribery.

He has to get the ball first (the few touches he has had have been great).

France aren't really in this game :/

 

[StriKeVillain]

I'm always shocked at how ugly Ribery is every time I see him.

 

[Kurtofan]

This is so painful

 

[Error]

another fucking 1-0 win for spain!?

Christ, I love Barcelona but I find Spain extremely boring.

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

I'm always shocked at how ugly Ribery is every time I see him.

Terrible accident + reconstructive surgery on face/skull = lots of scars

 

[Chinner]

the problem with france is that they're trying to walk it in.

 

[Patriots7]

Giroud and Nasri need to be in.

Blanc is stupid to not have had them in.

 

[Dance Inferno]

I'm always shocked at how ugly Ribery is every time I see him.

Wasn't he in an accident some time ago?

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Totally agree. So arrogant.

Games is all but done. France will have to do some changes (Nasri on), but it's far from over.

 

[scorcho]

Spain 1-0 France

what atrocious defending :/

 

[Funky Papa]

Barca have Messi.

 

[patapuf]

I'm always shocked at how ugly Ribery is every time I see him.

as far as i know that's mainly the result of a car accident as a kid.

edit: beaten

I actually find Germany more closer to Barcelona than Spain. Only thing similar between Spain and Barcelona is the possession of the ball, but everything else is like Barcelona playing in really slow motion.

 

[TeegsD]

malouda should be taken off due to it basically being his fault that Alonso had all that room plus his passing has been very spotty.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Anyone use the UEFA Euro 2012 android app? Supposed to notify you for a variety of things for fav teamss but I've yet to receive anything lol.

 

[Kyoufu]

another fucking 1-0 win for spain!?

Christ, I love Barcelona but I find Spain extremely boring.

Spain have 5 Barca players in the first team and play pretty much the same way. Only exception is they don't have Messi. Why do you find Spain boring? They play football better than any other team in this competition.

/confused

Why don't you a post a pic of yourself pretty boy.

Spoiler

He does look pretty rough though

Works on iPhone. Check the app settings, as you can set which alerts you want.

Villa couldn't make it, which is without doubt our best striker and we're playing with Cesc as a 9. I think the fact we scored a goal is almost a miracle.

Also is hard when the other team puts like 10 people defending.

 

[Dance Inferno]

Alexi Lalas is such a tool.

 

[Divius]

loooool balotelli. Dutch TV just showed a short fragment:

Interviewer: Mario, one question: Are you excited about the game against England?
Super Mario: One, I don't speak English, Two (He said 'twice') Don't ask me questions.

This fucking guy. :lol

Same players sure, but upfront they are toothless and Barcelona doesn't play with a double pivot.

 

[dyonPT]

Zidane is warming up.

When your only option is Torres, you'd be toothless upfront too

 

[Majine]

He looks like some kind of rodent.

 

[Dark Schala]

It couldn't contain his abs.

Meh. He's not my type.

 

[Cosmozone]

Disappointed by France, too. Ribéry must feel a bit lonely at times.

I did. Everything is set right

 

[Clegg]

Spain are a technically marvellous team. Full of players that are gifted passers with amazing off the ball movement. Iniesta has been player of the tournament so far imo.

But for a team that is so technically gifted, they are awful to watch. They constantly dick around with the ball when in possession and seem deathly afraid of shooting from outside the box.

They are dreadfully boring. Torres isn't a very good striker anymore but Spain play much better when he's on the pitch and they actually have someone to pass to up front.

 

[Ushojax]

You trolling Llorente, boy?

 

[GQman2121]

France is soulless out there. They need something, anything, to wake them up.

 

[ektoll]

France needs Giroud on the field, stat.


Oh, and: Euro 2012 |OT2| of Alonzo'fants de la patriiiie !

 

[Divius]

And we're back!

alexi lalas shitty commentary could do it.

 

[Brinbe]

Get Malouda off already. Need the likes of Menez/Nasri to offer more of a threat.

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

You trolling Llorente, boy?

Seriously, Llorente should play way more. I rather have him than Torres.

 

[Divius]

Live stream anywhere?

ESPN?

 

[Dance Inferno]

Good point brought up by the commentator - France was trailing Spain 1-0 in halftime at the World Cup in 2006, and they ended up winning that match.

Of course two of their scorers were Vieira and Zidane, soooo yeah...

 

[Patrick Bateman]

Spain's style looks more boring than before to me.
Yes, I know that it's totally awesome that they can do 15 passes in a row, but somehow this doesn't amaze me..
