Euro 2012

[Dan]

The fact that Spain haven't conceded at a tournament since Zidane in 2006 is madness.

Eh?

That's not right, they lost to Switzerland at the world cup no?

They did in this tournament...

[MJB]

Iker Casillas really is a Saint.

Xavi, Iniesta, Torres, Fabregas, Pique, Ramos, Alonso. They're all great players but for me, Casillas is the unsung hero. The man does everything with complete ease and is comfortably the best goalkeeper in the world. The best I've seen since Schmeichel.

[Rafael]

Arbeloa being part of that team makes me want to be a footballer.

[Kaney]

Sweet little moment there with Torres playing around the goals with the kids.

[MJB]

Arbeloa being part of that team makes me want to be a footballer.

This annoys me. Yes, Arbeloa isn't the best player in this side but he still does a very good job on that right hand side.

[Lineker]

Sorry, yeh, I meant in knockout rounds of tournaments.

Adorable kiddies!

[Sam]

I'll never forget that loss to Switzerland because Casillas' girlfriend became public number 1.

An insight into how Spanish TV works for those who have never had the fortune of living out here, they have just won the cup and they go to Madrid where they do a live advert for Cruzcampo, and people moan about ITV, they show some shots of the crowd and now we're on adverts again.

Although all the adverts are very clever and are discussing how they helped Spain win.

Baby spear!

[Lineker]

You're right, he is no Danny Simpson.

[IAceI]

So Rafael is Clive Tyldesley apparently? What a bizarre outcome.

[Liam]

Seriously, fuck off Hansen.

[MJB]

The 5th officials get a medal

[Rafael]

So Rafael is Clive Tyldesley apparently? What a bizarre outcome.

Only thing I know about this Tyldesley guy is that he's in FIFA. Gosh he's annoying.

[IAceI]

He's got a vendetta against Arbeloa it seems, it's quite funny actually.

Feel sorry for Italy, some very talented players in there and they've been thoroughly ripped apart tonight.

[Summers]

Feel for Pirlo. Woulda been nice for him to win, but Spain were just unreal.

[Cymbols]

Meh, they'll lose in 2014.

How?

Who out of the 14 who have featured tonight won't be in the squad?

The commentator thinks that Xavi will be too old by the World Cup to feature, despite being one of the best midfielders on the planet. And he says Casillas probably will play, despite being arguably the best keeper.

Casillas will be 33 at the World cup, Buffon was 34 at this years tournament :/

Anyway, even if Casillas isn't there, they still have Victor Valdes, Pepe Reina, David de Gea. Plus with midfielders like Iker Muniain and Javi Garcia not even in the squad, I think that Spain are set for quite a while.

Don't forget about Sergio Canales and Rodrigo ( I'm not sure if it's his name ) from Benfica. Thiago Alcantara is also young.

And English cunting goalkeepers who aren't half as good as Valdes or Reina refuse to join up with the national team because they wont start over Hart.
