    It was miles off, but that was a blast from Balotelli, what a leg.

    That was a beautiful run from Alba from wayyy back. He was hauling ass.

    Spain is just too ridiculous...they may be the best team ever.
  • Automatik
    The fact that the US beat this team a few years ago is a minor miracle.

    Literally every ball went our way.

    Torres...

    3-0 Spain. Ridiculous.
  • Automatik
    Clinical passing.
  • hoops23
    Damn 4-0.

    This is absurd.
  • Automatik
    Unselfish play from Torres, he would have wont he Golden Boot if he hit that.

    Spain's conceded goal total during 3 tourney run? 6

    1 in this Euro.

    3 in the last Euro.

    2 in the WC.

    I believe the goal gave him the Golden Boot anyways, tied with Gomez with 3 goals and 1 assist.

    Ian Darke said it best. It is unfair playing this Spain side. They don't concede goals. They don't let you touch the ball. They score seemingly at will when in the mood. Best side ever. Euro, WC, Euro. You kiddin me?

    Also amazing how versatile they are. Shows how amazing Xavi, Xabi Alonso and Iniesta are in the middle. They have anchored it for all 3 runs. Once in a typical 4-4-2. Then they win WC in a mixture of 4-5-1 and 3-6-1/3-5-2. Now they win Euros going to a 4-6-0 lol. Easily the best midfield we have ever seen. All 3 of those players get credit, yet are still mindnumbinly under appreciated.

    Mata has now scored on his Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, and European Championship debuts all in one season.

    Also the USA is the only side to have beaten both Spain and Italy since 2009. Clearly the best team in the world.

    Just found this. Casillas asked the ref to end Italy's misery out of respect.

    They don't have that listed on their website? Is it just a friendly?
