With Spain having the group wrapped up, Aragones should rest a few key players.
Marchena is the only player on a booking so he should sit out to avoid the possibility of missing out on the quarterfinals.
Puyol wil likely be rested as well with his injury.

The Spanish subs will massacre the Greeks

Greece will get something like 10000 goals from Villa

C'mon, I wouldn't play Villa in this game. We shouldn't risk an injury and Güiza and Torres need playing time. I'd only allow him in as a sub.

[glennaldo_sf]

I think both teams will field reserves. Spain have a big game against Italy to play in a couple of days. No way will they risk first stringers.

[Juanele]

This is the rumored lineup that Aragones will start with.

-------------Reina--------------
Arbeloa--Juanito--Albiol--Navarro
-------------Alonso-------------
Iniesta--Cesc--De La Red-S.Garcia
--------------Guiza-------------

[Pit-182]

Oh yeah I forgot Aragones will put the subs... anyway I still don't get how Greece has won that european title in 2004 doing anything except taking advantage of others mistakes.

According to Luis, Iniesta will play the first half and Cazorla will play the second half.

Aupa Espanha y Viva Er Beti Manque Lopera!

I want spain to give these greeks a 5-0 rapin

They deserve it for making the tourney a sham last time out.

Torres, Villa unleash hell
