I mean it was accidental, But I would understand why the Ref gave him a Red Card.

Honduras apparently doesn't want to score. Missed so many chances in this game including the latest two attempts.

Hey at least it looks like they'll get a point and play spoilers.

Spain played like a bunch of ({})

 

[wheredeydothatat]

love the way chile plays..  they go out every match with the sole intention of destroying their opponent.  nothing better than attacking football

how so? are you referring to the last minutes of the match?

either way, better than playing dirty as hell like chile did early on. spain has picked up no yellows in 3 matches.....i'd like to see them be a little more physical to be honest. either way, the best 2 teams of the group advanced.

glad to see spain avoid brazil and play their neighbors instead. should be an interesting match. hopefully spain can pick their offense up.

Torres went into full Paul Pierce mode as soon as he got clipped

dude acting like he got hit on the head

I think you meant Derek Fisher mode? 

Ponce deserved a second yellow before this, so I can't feel sorry for him. He shouldn't even have been on the pitch here.

 

[knightngale]

nah, fisher flops but pierce does that head whiplash motion EVERY TIME he drives to the basket

are you a celtics fan?

 

[joe camel smooth]

yes sir.

agree to disagree, don't want to derail this thread with basketball talk.

I missed the last 35 minutes of the spain match (to watch honduras), but I was not terribly impressed by them. For me, they scored an undeserving 2 goals in the first half, were getting outhustled and straight robbed on 50/50 balls, and were semi-flopping on too many occasions for my liking. Chile took it to them with their aggressive play

the last 30 minutes of the honduras match was ++*$#*! comical....they had 1 v 1, 4 v 3, 5 v 3, and every other combo that favored them on the counter and each and every time, nothing came out of it. Their 1st win was their for the taking and they just fumbled every single chance

Glad to see Chile and the barca boys

make it out though....too bad Medel is out against Brazil

 

[xtapolapacetl]

All in all, performance-wise, all the right teams made it to the second round IMO except for Australia and Ivory Coast.

spain probably played their worst match tonight imo but they capitalized on a couple chilean mistakes.

and to be fair though chile's goal was an absolute gift, the most "undeserved" of the match. it would've been an easy save for casillas if not for the perfect deflection off piquet
