Xabi Alonso Scores for Spain in the 13th minute off a header

[Ziegler1988]

1-0, Spain. Thumbsucker claims goal, but Xabi Alonso was the goalscorer.

[Ziegler1988]

David Villa with a cracker of a free kick. 2-0 Spain.
Big deflection off the wall though.

David Villa off a good free kick deflected off the wall puts Spain up 2-0 in the 17th minute

[Ziegler1988]

If Spain keeps going like this, we might see Cesc today :).

[zonametro]

Everything for Ukraine is so predictable its just bang it up to Sheva and see if he can get the ball and do something

[zonametro]

two goals and no stoppage time?

[Ziegler1988]

Wow, ref gives a penalty to Spain and a red card to the Ukraine defender. Didn't look like he even touched Torres. Villa finishes and Spain are up 3-0.

[zonametro]

Red Card for Ukraine and it was a terrible call as there was no contact between the two players but a PK to spain and David Villa converts to make it 3-0

[surfcam]

That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. Ever. Truely horrible. That ref should be sent home.

[Ziegler1988]

Darn, Albelda came on for Alonso instead of Cesc. Looks like we'll have to wait to see Cesc in the WC.
That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. Ever. Truely horrible. That ref should be sent home.
I highly doubt he'll get any matches beyond the group stages.

[zonametro]

The Red card and PK were bs but i don't think Ukraine was gonna score two goals today regardless

[zonametro]

Cesc is coming on in the 77th

[Ziegler1988]

Shit, what a goal from Torres!

[zonametro]

Beautiful goal by Torres 4-0

[surfcam]

Best goal of the tourney IMO!! Great build up and moves by Puyol and the strike by Torres was great.

i've been told that Cesc's shirt just says Cesc.

[Ziegler1988]

Yay, we're not last in the tournament anymore :rolleyes:.
