a little let down by the game this afternoon. portugal gave a completely uninspired second half performance. definitely very happy spain won, and shit did they deserve it. villa outshot portugal alone. and i dont think portugal had a single SOG in the entire 2nd half. its a shame these two teams drew each other so early in knockouts, cuz i really like them both. but portu proved they rely on nothing but strong defense and ronaldo up front, he needs some assistance.
looking forward spain has the only sure ticket to the semis, and the winner of brazil v. netherlands is through to the finals. im definitely pulling for a spain/brazil final, but would be excited for an argentina/brazil, netherlands/spain (both teams have NEVER won a cup!), or an argentina/netherlands matchup. fuck germany.
go spain!
