Another case where I think the pundits are over praising the big team. Spain have been good but they aren't creating enough chances. They need someone to be clinical rather than always looking to pass.

Second half nearly starts with an own goal!
Spain upping the intensity |

Did Tyldesley just say that Spain had lost their air of invisibility?

Agreed. They are assuming it's only a matter of time until Spain score when its anything but.

Cech isn't Neuer, but it must nevertheless feel good if you are defender knowing he is in your goal. He's been a fine goalie for quite some time now.
I might as well elaborate a little. I don't think Hart, for instance, has ever recovered that presence and solidity he had before he had the bad spell which led to him being dropped at City. I always feel he has a mistake in him; and I feel he feels that too. |

It does seem to be like a training session of attack v defence so far.

I can't be the only one that misses the much dynamic Spain side of 2008.

About the dullest game so far for me.
Czech Republic simply not at the races, and Spain seem a little lackadaisical. |

I'll be surprised if the Czechs have a better chance than that today.
Does seem to have given them a bit of forward impetus though... |

Oof! That would've upset the apple cart.

Fairly decent chance for the Czechs. Excellent delivery in to the box.

Morata could do with a second striker hovering around for him to lay it off to.

That was a negative change for me. Should have sacrificed one of Silva, Fabregas or Iniesta to out two up top.
