FIFA World Cup 2014 - GROUP B [Spain, Netherlands, Chile, Australia - 13/18/23 June] **spoilers**

Am glad to see the Spanish players booked for harassing the ref. They get away with it far too much normally.

La Liga is filled with entitled, whiney, cheats.
 
The 3rd goal was a clear foul imo. Could make a case that the Spain pen was valid too.

Don't count out Spain though. Last WC they lost the 1st game 2-0 to Switzerland!

By no means would I write them off, but against the Swiss they were all in form and had a bad game, this season xavi, pique, Alba, Torres and others haven't been anywhere near the form they were in going in to the tournament 2 years ago.
 
I don't know why everyone thinks that Spain, Barca etc have suddenly lost something. Teams have just figured out how to play against them. We've seen this over the past 3-4 years and the teams that have been winning things have generally been a lot more counter attacking and direct.
