Holy Christ on a Cracker! In the performance of the tournament so far, featuring the goal of the tournament, Spain routed the Ukraine. The Spainards were all over the pitch, seemingly impervious to the heat. They showed individual flair on the ball and exciting combination play. Yes, the Ukraine played most of the second half with 10 men. But the game was already over by that point. Then, once the game was out of reach, Spain brought in its scrubs ... guys like Raul and Cesc Fabregas. Andriy Shevchenko did nothing, but I think that's less his fault than a failure of his support players to get him the ball.
I would still put my money on Brazil to win it all, but Spain might now be a close second.
Goal scorers:
Xabi Alonso (13'), Spain (1-0)
David Villa (17'), Spain (2-0)
Villa (48' pen), Spain (3-0)
Fernando Torres (81'), Spain (4-0)
