i was surprised by spain yesterday. if they're able to grow during the tournament, they might be the next eu-champions.
greece is going to be the turkey/korea of the last worldchampionships.

greece knows what they can do and what they cannot
they are good 0-0 defenders, and if the other team makes a mistake they know how to get good profit out of it
greece won spain in spain in the cualification round... indeed they were first of the group.
they are a very hard team to beat even though they have no big names in the team, but they close space and its hard to attack them.... portugal has it really hard now to pass

spain did an ok match... not bad not great
first 15 minutes were great by spain, but again we didnt kill at all
then the russians, whom I didnt expect to move so well the ball, started to take control of the play and tempo and even got more clear oportunities to score (thank god for casillas)
but thankfully the second half they were tired and spain with the two changes did a much better performance, we even deserved a second goal.

I think its good to attack by the wings, but if thats the only thing you do then you get previsible and that happen to spain, we didnt alternate attack byt the centre with others by the wings
change = surprise = goal
the only goal came due to a surprise = puyol attacking (when he is a defender)

well there was no penalty, no red card (till last minutes), no unfair offside, no invalidated goals....
I dont think the referee really was a second rival for russia by no means

maybe but russians really did a lot more faults than spaniards who maybe shouuld had seen one or two yellow cards
but you think that was important overall?

yes it played an important role. by whistling tighter towards the russians (or however you say it in proper english), the russians were obstructed in their game and spain on the other hand was allowed more freedom to play their own game.
i dont think it would have made much difference overall though. spain was better. the russian defence was simply too slow when the spanish were playing in their proper mode (speed)

well, I shall be subjective in this but I dont see he was so much tighter with russians... I just saw russians being slower and therefor commiting more faults = more cards
but I understand that being spanish I dont have the correct point of view.
well I am sure spain was better overall, and dereved even one more goal
maybe it should have been a 2-1, russia never gave the impression of winning the match

it´s not about the cards, as a referee you can choose to whistle at every tackle or to tolerate it
imo he did not tolerate anything from russia in the first half
it´s difficult for me to explain exactly what I mean, but the English football league is a good example
