It's tough to have an effective counter attack, which Germany relies on, against a team that (1) has the ball a lot of the time and (2) actually has an effective system in place to counteract that.

Spain were my choice to win it all before the tourny began so I'm not changing that now.
I hope Holland wins, because this is Spain's only chance, after this World Cup all their elite players will be too old to have another go, or, if they do, they'll be pulling an Italy.

Germany sat back way too much, they let Spain have the possession, and they did it well, I mean, Spain generated basically little to nothing with all that possession.

Bitter. Very bitter.
