Torres, for all of his faults this past season, knows how to attack the
defense. He can get behind them, which forces them to play closer in to goal, freeing up space in the midfield. Llorente is good at that, too. If either had played today, I think Spain would have won in regulation. It'll be interesting to see what del Bosque has in mind for the final. |

2) CR7 was chomping at the bit to kick the 3rd PK, so it wasn't his decision ** -- gldwrth Wed Jun 27 2012 7:28:40 PM |
