You Americans are just as bad as us English - just how many days ago was that game? Get over it, it has happened and you lost.

Look ahead to the next game, and be positive about winning.

Stupid goalie movie but great defence from Spain there.

Sdpm100 · 06-14-2006, 10:46 AM

I have now idea what Iker was doing there - maybe he wanted to score a goal as well.

theasfl · 06-14-2006, 10:46 AM

WHAT THE **** were both of them doing

WHAT THE **** DOES HE COME OUT FOR????

WHAT THE **** DOES HE NOT SHOOT IT FOR....?

bababui · 06-14-2006, 10:46 AM

Heartbreaking for the Ukranians

It's the same as hockey players when facing an empty net, they don't want to look stupid if they miss, so they go as close as the goal as possible before shooting. Just didn't work on that occasion, not that it matters much.

And very little joy in it for the Spanish. They know they'll just lose in the quarters anyway.

Chisanga · 06-14-2006, 10:49 AM

Great game for the Spanish. Pure class. if they can stay consistant they have a real chance now.

thomasthomas · 06-14-2006, 10:49 AM

ESP runs the table .. 9 pts
UKR beats TUN & KSA ... 6 pts
TUN beats KSA, loses to ESP .. 3 pts
KSA loses all 3 ... 0 pts

It's not over yet. Although getting drubbed today makes you wonder if they'll recover.
