    Yeah, I don't get the boring. Just a lot of great plays, especially defensively.

    Honestly, watching both teams play the right angles and positioning as the other sides attacks is pretty amazing ... and eye opening when compared to US positioning.

    Completely agree, but Spain is by far the most impressive aspect of this equation. You need a keeper on the match of his life and some magical thinking soccerball just to not lose to them.

    1 goal all tournament and zero shots allowed all game? Legendary.

    I can appreciate it intellectually. But when one team can’t get a shot off, and the other team can’t take a good shot despite 11.6 billion chances, it’s a special kind of frustrating.
