27-0 on Caspian last night in the LAV. Didn't even need to be repaired once.Loudest folks are the ones who haven't even played it. Go figure.
Does this mean I'm good with the LAV?
Hell no, the "pilots" on the other team were just completely useless...
Wait a sec...am I posting this in the right place??
is not boring when you are living in spain xDLast night's match can only be described as the most boring one yet.
They won by dominating the match, dictating the tempo as they will by possessing the ball, thus the seemingly flurry of short passes without attacking progress. The beauty is the number of connections they make, even difficult passes made it through!Won? Anyway they did not dominate the match. They had 60% possesion but Italy had as many shots on goal as Spain. They created barely any chances until Torres came on even with all that possession. Like I said passing to pass the ball around.
Poor defending wise, Puyol wasn't there. But even with Puyol, Spain's defense is already poor as it is, all of their defenders were part of the passing systems, so when you are on the attacking momentum, the defenders have to come forward to maintain the pressure. But, when the chain breaks there, it is over, if Pique or Ramos can't outrun the attacker, only Casillas is left.
Last time, the Germans weren't able to figure it out and try to face it using their rigid style, the Netherlands got frustrated and played rough instead. But Italy was able to read the game, try to disrupt the harmony, and wait for their chances.
Spain may have trouble finishing it off, but man o man did you see the gameplay between players. Tick-tac-tock they are passing it around like a pinball machine. Beautiful to see. And Torres, it seems like he has the football equivalent of a writers block. Was that really the best he could do against BuffonSorry I do not find it beautiful any more. It has come down to passing for passing sake and no intention to create a chance and score a goal. The ball by Silva was brilliant and resulted in a great goal by Fabregas. Lengthy periods of the game there was almost no intention to score though, but just to pass the ball around. The lack of a target man up front might have something to do with it Some bad defending on the Spanish side gave Italy a few great chances, can't believe they missed them as it's so unlike Italians to waste such chances. Torres missing twice is not surprising in the least but it did show that with a striker you at least get chances to score.
It's all a ruse!Germany was far from impressive. They were lucky with two balls hitting the woodwork and Gomez scoring from a deflected cross. They have nothing to brag about sofar. Definitely going to be interesting wednesday.
Now the German team is all like 'hah, they couldn't even beat Denmark, this will be a piece of cake!' and then.. BOOM! Huntelaar on front and Robben being a team player! I can dream, let me dream!
And to be honest, I do not care that much who wins but I just LOVE Netherlands-Germany. It is the most iconic match for me
I also see Zoo still has a deep hate against the Dutch team, still as bad as in 2010?
