    Did he not get a card for that? Jesus. Vardy goes straight for the leg.

    Yeah it's a penal, Reina couldn't really do much there. But looked clumsy nonetheless.

    1-0

    Nice attack ended with a mis-hit by Vitolo, good opportunity for the equaliser had he taken it better.

    Listening to COPE here at work and they don't seem too impressed with the Furia Roja today, Vardy just missed the 2-0.

    we have 3 starters out there today, the rest are bench players. I wouldn't take a whole lot of stock in what happens.

    Pretty boring game so far. Apart from the penalty, neither goalie had something to do.
     
    Juanele repped this.

    Yeah, I'm gonna stop watching at the half. If we don't take the game seriously (our bench is better than the field) then why watch? Too many balls back to the goalie, no sense of urgency, no chances (on either side) I understand why the stadium isn't full.

    I understand this is a FIFA assigned date but why bother having a friendly? There is nothing to prepare for and all it can do is have injuries.

    The Brits will get pumped up on the result and will flounder like they always do on the center stage!

    Iñigo used to be a promising player but he really hasn't progressed. He has definitely regressed as a player. Maybe give someone like Victor Ruiz a shot?

    Also for those that don't want Pique on the team, well this is the type of defense we will get without him.

    I would have liked to see Ruben Castro get a chance.

    Isco in the last minute

    Guess that is what friendlies are for, tough to figure out if the last 5 minutes of the Furia Roja were for real or not as real as it seems based on whose on the pitch due to the subs.
