Nice little start to the final.....Spain are all over the shop Atmosphere seems to be good although an early goal will always help that. Delighted to see ladyboy Torres whack the cuntbag Marcelo - there ain't been many brazilians over the last 30 years that really wind me up but that troll look-a-like is a total *word censored* as far as I am concerned
Pitch is cutting up quite bad too
In years to come when I am lying on my deathbed several of life's biggest questions will run through my mind - one such question is how the fcuk can any team win any trophy with arbeloa at right back ?? The guy is absolute dogshite
Spain are all over the place - I would actually go so far as to say that they are intimidated by the brazilians
Has to be said too, that the ref is having an absolute 'mare - two Spanish defenders should be off for denying goal scoring chances (arbeloa and Ramos) and Oscar should have seen yellow for repeated kicking of Spanish players
What. A. Goal-line. Clearance. By David luiz - I know that he isn't everybodies cup of tea but I do think that there is a good defender in him but he needs defensive drilling from a GG type of manager
Neymar has just scored a rocket to put the home side 2 up
A blistering first half performance from Brazil. They have been absolutely sensational and nullified Spain completely. Luiz Gustavo is one hell of a defensive midfielder btw.
Seeing how fired up the Brazil players were singing their national anthem you knew Spain were in for a game.

They are rightly favourites to do so but that doesn't necessarily mean it will happen that way. It only needs one below par performance against a good side for them to get eliminated before accomplishing what some see as a near certainty.
ref gave Brazil everything, funny seeing Spain get battered
how many times did Iniesta get nailed? crap ref
Neymar was brilliant, Paulinho too good for Spuds
Spuds are after Fred since 2008 (when we were about to sign Mario Gomez from Stuttgart ) and he still didn't sign.. smart man
But seeing his performance at this Cup, I'm guessing someone like PSG, Celski or Citeh will get in and take him.
As for the others, our new goalkeeper played good

Did you see ramos take down the chav oscar on edge of area when he was through on goal ?
Did you see arbeloa take neymar out of it just inside the spain half when the brazilian had a clear run on goal ?
Both were automatic red cards and yet the stupid c.nut bottled both decisions If that gobshite ref gets a big game in next years world cup I will be amazed
admittedly I watched a pretty average stream
but I thought Neymar realised he was never getting that throughball and dived after minimal Arbeloa contact
(how crap was Arbeloa?)
was obv Brazil policy to slide tackle from behind whenever the ball was shielded
Spain fouls were IMO bad defending rather than managerial instruction
