the joys of a cultural melting pot. Canadian when convenient, something else when it's not.
(Of course, I'm Dutch this week)

I wonder if Loew has washed that blue sweater yet...

1/3 of my office (ok, 2 people) actually took a late extended lunch hour to go watch the game.

Iniesta seemed to take that one right in the jewels...

Meh, get up Ozil, that was a Klinsmann dive ;-)

I do like that in the last two games, they have actually let them play physically a bit more.

"He looks at the referee and will get nothing" ........ and like it!

Good no-call there. Slip-n-slide.

Hmmm, got some advice for Admiral Ozil. Next time you're in the 18 yard box, kick the ball!

That's good advice

There's always something underneath the surface. He had a master plan - before he was blatantly fouled.

open cage for Villa from 3 feet out.... nope.
Spain turning it on here.

edit.. on review, he was a little farther away from the ball than it first appeared.

Heck of a save by Neuer to keep Espana off the board...

 

[dash]

Klose not very on that volley attempt...

 

[dash]

On that replay, it looked like something came flying in from the stands (bottle/can)

 

[dash]

Oh man, great save by Casillas

 

[Destroydacre]

For the third straight game, Spain gets the ice breaker late. Looking good for the Spaniards.

Vicious header puts Spain on the board...

Gotta love Puyol. If he were Canadian he would have made a great hockey player. Hell, he's already got the hair for it.
