    I think they made a mistake starting Raul who has come in as a sub (I earlier mistook Figo for Raul in an earleir comment about Portugal). Earlier in the tournament Luis Garcia had been linking up very well with Torres and Ramos. He should have started to get the early strike. In addition Raul has that 'aura' and would have been a bigger boost coming on the field as a sub than Garcia. By the time Garcia came on, Torres and Ramos were tired and not up to the flashy play.

      • Well, he has some skin disease, but I don't think it's so bad, though he surely isn't "handsome".
        And yes, he's a great player.

              • Nostradamus also predicted:

                "A fool in Geneva will believe me
                He will lose everything for this error
                France is on the move"

                        • The same Spain. What a terrible waste of talent. Spain will never a national team better than this
                          I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                          • 4 years from now they will. Many of Spains team are quite young.

                              Yup. With more maturity, they'll have an amazing team (whereas their current team is "merely" great).

                              Had they been more experienced against France, and had they not panicked, I'd bet they'd have won fairly easily.

                              • The problem is that they lost to a team of average 35 years old men
