Switzerland 1 vs Spain 1 (Spain advance on pens)

Post by soothsayer »

Both goals scored from defensive mistakes
Switzerland holding their own but now they have a man down.
It will be all Spain now.

Super difficult to comprehend Enrique's management of this team. Everything is so tepid...nothing is ever beyond medium level...

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

the shots are all direct to him though...not to take anything from him.

hard to believe Spain have a man advantage...

Yeah, the shots at goal have been tame , but Switzerland have been defending well.
That red card though was harsh in my opinion.

Might even be a disadvantage for switzerland to go up and attack, spain could break and score against the them.

So, with a man advantage, heading to end of extra time, Enrique's decision is to bring on Rodri...

He must be very good at PKs..

The Swiss, whom I wrote off when Italy smacked them well-well, are showing their useless brothers, the French, how to play with heart, grit and determination. Up Swiss. Even if una lose on penarity, una try well-well. :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
