I hope England wins, Spain has won enough. And who knows, maybe we'll be able to beat Germany, although I doubt that and we can reclaim first place on the worlds rankings.

I'll back Holland to beat Germany.I think your squad is stronger.

Interesting to note that the 2 teams who played in the World Cup final,both had 1 club with 8 or 9 of its Academy graduates in the 23 man squad,AJAX AMSTERDAM and BARCELONA.

I love England chants.

Brilliant game, offensively England didn't do much. Defensively we did everything correct. Considering Spain are the best at keeping possession and raping defenses we did amazing :)

Scott Parker was great tonight. Good positive signs going into the Euro 2012 tourny. Hoping for a good offensive show against Sweden but we'll see.

C'MON ENGLAND!

This is what I read for the first half: England 75 passes, Spain 348 passes.
They sure passed the ball good, but nothing really substantial came from it.

Possession is 9/10 of the law but good to see Hart get a clean sheet :D

I would disagree. I love both squads, but Germany has very good strength in depth.

No Gotze or Ozil? Okay, lets start Kroos and Reus. That's 4 quality players there for 1 position.

The worry for Holland would have to be their defence, but I am a big fan of the Dutch.
