2013 Confederations Cup Thread

[Gazz]

Everybody knows Spain are the Stoke City of international football.

Spurs are getting a great player in Paulinho based off this tournament.

[Ant]

Luis Gustavo is different class

Campeones, campeones, ole ole ole

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Great win, best exhibition we had since the 2005 Confederations Cup final, but that doesn't mean we will roll over everybody in the World Cup. Spain will certainly learn from this game.

Spurs are getting a great player in Paulinho based off this tournament.

Hence why they won't be getting him anymore.

[Rafael]

Just warning Spurs fans, there is a possibility (a real one) of what can happen with Paulinho if he goes to Europe:

He can be just like this lad.

[Jimmy]

Fucking hell, what a result. Enjoy it Raf, that was quite the performance against some great teams.

[Rafael]

It was one fucking performance. But if you take into account that the last time Spain went to the Confederations Cup, they also disappointed. And look at what happened the year after.

[Jimmy]

Oh yeah, I wasn't encouraging you for the future. Just hoped you had a good time watching your national team win a tournament. I know I would.

[Rafael]

I can assure you I had.

[Kaney]

Spain were absolutely shocking. They should and easily could have done better than that. If they played the full match the way they did in the brief spell between the penalty and say Piques red card they could have made more of an impact but they were played off the park last night. Brazil wanted it way more.
