Viva Espana!


Score another one for the psychic Octopus. Spain defeats Germany 1-0 to enter the final against the Netherlands. The Netherlands has never won, and Spain has never been this far at all. The Teutonic Titans evidently were not as well matched against the deliberate passing of Spain as they were against more meat-headed opponents.

There was one amusing story. Torres, Spain's typically under-performing superstar was replaced by his understudy Pedro for this match. But Pedro was taken off the field by his coach when in the closing minutes he blew an excellent break away because he couldn't bring himself to pass the damn ball. I wonder if he'll get another chance to start in the final match, or if he's going back on the bench.

Are any of you watching the World Cup or is it just me and dad?
