    This I like. :)

    Chile also plays better with their backs against the wall.

    No kidding. As ImaPuppy has said, Chile is doing some bad-ass defending.

    No drive in the middle for Chile. Had one open at the top of the box and gave it up to Spain...:mad:

    I don't mind taking home a ton of work I should be doing. Which I'll have to do tonight and sunday night. Totally worth it when you get futbol like this.

    Thanks goodness I had accumulated vacations for this.

    Chile needs something in midfield. Desperately.

    Chile is dancing with the devil under the pale moonlight.

    They let the Spanish come, so they get some space beyond their area.

    Gutsy, but oh so dangerous!

    That would be harsh.

    If the breaks go against them, would that make them the first team to ever win their first two matches and not advance?

    Honduras under siege. This is a proper ending to the group stage, no?
