SPAIN 0 CHILE 2
There are a few words that can describe Spains performance in this world cup
But the one i want to use is....disinterested......
From the time Van Persie equalised in the first game they just seemed to loose interest in the whole thing.
I dont buy into this "too old" thing as tonight only two of the starting eleven were over 30 ...
There were plenty of players you could blame but for me the worst player in the two games was David Villa who contributed nothing and in truth looked way out of his depth.
The Spainish midfield was weak and poor in both games and they had a lot of decent players on the bench that never got a look in.
I doubt we will be seeing Spain lift a major trophy for many years now and for anyone over 50 they may never see it...
Chile showed a passion to play for the shirt and deserved their win but we all know they wont go a lot further once they play a country thats there to win.
I watched Australia who are also out of that group but they gave it everything they had and its a shame they still went out the same time as Spain.
I can see at least 7 changes in Spains last game against Australia and maybe we will see more passion when its all too late.
Costa was as bad as i have ever seen a striker play in the world cup and it was only his performance that saved Torres from getting that vote.
I fear for Chelsea next season if they do pay 30 odd million for him....we are better off keeping BA at least he can score goals and looks like he wants to ....Costa just looked like a bloke who didnt fancy it.
Anyway onto tonights bets.......
All lost ..........
New balance
217
Tomorrow we look at ENGLAND V URUGUAY at 8pm ....
PS
I think FRANCE could be the dark horses now....14/1 looks big .....
