It's really going to be Brazil vs France final, which will be decided by who makes the first mistake. Other teams really aren't impressive.

A last minute Morocco goal would be glorious. The WC would be better off without these bore merchants.

:lol: imagine honestly thinking this. Is this why people have been slagging off Spain's football since 2008?
Not at all

You know most english fans would rather face Morocco than Spain in WC semifinal, they are the kinda team that Southgate always beat.

Plus parking the bus like Southgate loves to do fecks Morocco plans of sitting back.

Fair play to that Moroccan lad, recovered from that horrific leg break in record time.

Commentator in the 94th minute: "You feel now a goal will be enough to win it."

Hope Aluko and Jenas are taking notes.

I want Morocco to win this, desperately. But if you scream and roll around with that amount of drama, you should be removed from the field for a mandatory medical inspection.

They wouldn’t be long cutting that bollocks out if every time you did it, you were removed from the field for 5 minutes to be checked.

Spanish players are attracted by the ball, they never make runs except for Williams and Morata, but they're never looking for them, all ther other players always move towards the ball.

If Spain squeak through this you'll still hear: "England havn't played anyone good, the first time we play someone decent like Spain we'll lose"

Spain have been tumescent in this game. Its tika-taka without any of the final thrust. Used to be "go slow to go quick", now its "go slow to go slow".

Two shots on target in 96+ minutes. Spain with 750~ passes to generate their one shot on target. The beautiful game...

:drool:Imagine the number of passes completed by the Spanish midfielders at the end of this game, now with an extra 30 mins

Spain is unbearable to watch. Hopefully they lose, otherwise we will have to get through this torture again

Spain is overrated. I think other than France and England this side of teams are not real deal.

Spain back to being the Spain we all know and love. Pass, pass, pass.

Sadly there's no David Villa around to give them a cutting edge.

AFCON was great for this. Every time a player went down they were stretchered off for treatment. Not out for 5 min but the play was continued nonetheless

Should be adapted

That Turkish Airlines advert is the most exciting thing I've seen in the last hour.
