Spain amazes Europe

Unforgettable, without further. Spain was planted 24 years later in an end to the Championship by a door that can not be bigger or more beautiful. His impressive second half to Russia, accurate touch and uncheck, dynamism and variety of resources was dramatically announced to the world its favoritism.

The Russian sensation Arshavin and Pavlyuchenko was reduced to rubble, crushed by the lesson of football and collective combination of Senna, Iniesta, Silva, Cesc and company. Germany, still with its phonebook and the end titles, should have much cause for concern.
Spain raised the party faithful to his style before an enemy with less canallesca steel and Italy.

The pulse not started as the breeze of the first phase ... but that's the plan and that was demonstrated in 45 minute spell late total. Again Senna planted their camp in the midfield, the supreme court and out of the ball along its major partner, Xavi, who gave the ball faster and even stepped on areas that neither divisó against the Italians. Spain handled the threads and prevented Arshavin, the deterrent threat of Hiddink, the endangered red arms. On 10, with little ball, ending anesthetized by the clamp Senna, Puyol and Marchena in a perfect surveillance area. And Spain thrash it being a real football hard to remember, playing collective higher.

The danger spot of the Russians had more to do with mobility Pavlyukhenko, a classy striker who knows sought life across the front and attack the area. Spain administered patience but also was more direct when the match was open. Torres and Silva applied mobility accustomed to a pair of Russian central vulnerable, hip rígida.Y Ramos-now, that mainstay of Madrid-speed ahead and subjected to Zhirkov, one cyclone by his side in front of the Dutch. It was the lateral incisor usual, even ventured into the auction. There was grilled by millimetres in a thread and try your luck with the left-handed in a couple of shots after breaking his marker.

But the best times were distributed in about 45 minutes early cooking almost Pacha. A couple of shots from Villa, another that Torres was unable to control or direct, one to screw Pavlyuchenko which was followed by a header in which pilló back to Marchena-again-impeccable in the only mistake he committed.

The floodwaters of the second half

Spain was never allowed uncontrolled Russian courage, never entered into an exchange of blows: it was undesirable. The unfortunate injury for Villa, which forced them to leave Torres lonelier up, nor could announce the remaining Spanish squall to come. Fábregas and it is for other things, as were unpayable, but also broke the nerve and the invention of Silva and Iniesta, who grew up 10 bodies in the second half. Insurmountable.

The resumption started with the goal of Spain in a CARACOLE of Iniesta left in a semidisparo that ended with a door connecting Xavi almost goal mouth, as if it were a 9. And from there, the fever broke out, the potential Spanish in a few minutes of fiction, pure exhibition football in Europe. With Russia in purgatory, came another invention Silva left a thread bite Torres threw to lose. Spain carbide as ever sent into the field and on the scoreboard, was in the final game and ambition ... Launch. With Russia in the ICU, the troops of Louis designed a few arrivals dream that did not end in goal by chiripa.

They were minutes of enjoyment, grabbing, but also in full command and authority to administer an advantageous situation. Because Spain finally distill an orgy of football. Silva, Iniesta and Cesc, that generation does not understand or complex or victims, felt great and started to distribute gifts to others. For Hiddink was not the shirt on his body and Arshavin and his cronies still did not appear mistreated by the Spanish touch and control. After the first flood, Aragones got more power with Xabi Alonso by Xavi. And the best, followed by Russia disarmed, tempted even the game hard because it was unable to resist, to oppose such a charming Spanish.

And more with the play's second goal in a wonderful booted right that desarbolar in full to the Russian defense. The passing of Cesc, glitter to the first touch, had a precise continuation of Güiza in petroleum jelly. Jugada gold. Goal for the frenzy of the 20,000 Spaniards who endured the shower. And there was the sensational deployment there. More art and charm in a carousel of arrivals which culminated in a third goal from Silva that exemplifies the powers of the new Spanish football. The Germany-must always know that Spain is not the usual.(source:elmundo)
