I've heard good things about the tour at Bodegas de Santo Tomas. Get to taste 20+ types of wine.

Good defending by Tunisia on the line stopping the GTG.

Some idiot predicted a 4-0 win for Spain before the game.

Oh man, I suck at predictions...

jeheinz72 · 06-19-2006, 04:49 PM

So it's basically pointless if they do make it through...uhm, sweet?

What would this do to Spain if this result holds?

Of course not. The way Brazil are playing atm, anything can happen.

USA has always done well against Brazil and we have fast wing players that might worry them

And Brazil has Mr. "Who ate all the pies?" to stuff things up for them as well.

Not pointless at all. Its important for us to go as far as possible. Plus, the games are played on the pitch, not on paper. I mean, brazil DOES lose. They lost to Ecuador.

Plus, getting through the groups is a significant step.

I don't know which of these two you mean, but I'll answer with both:
Mentally, if they lose it will bring back to the front of the minds of the players all the previous failures and choke jobs that Spain have had at major tournaments. They should be easing past Tunisia and into Round 2.

As for qualifying, it shouldn't make too much difference, as they surely will beat Saudi Arabia, and with the team's in Group G, the opponent in Round 2 shouldn't (and I know I'm talking about Spain here) be too tough even if they finish second.

Lets say Spain loses to Tunisia. How many goals do you think Spain will score against the Saudi's in that scenario?
