    How Casillas even kept his place is astounding to me.

    Watching AndersonIsGod trying to come up with excuses for Barcelona and Spain's collapse this season has been so enjoyable.

    On a more serious note even a draw is of questionable value to the Spanish given their goal difference from the Dutch game.

    The poor Aussies too. This result would knock them out.

    the bull is struck by the matador again.

    A fatal blow?

    the hopes of the bull are low and close to the ground.....

    The matador will be dining on the cojones of the bull tonight

    If Spain is ousted from the WC it will mean 3 of the last 4 defending champions will have been eliminated in the opening round. Incredible!

    We are witnessing the end of one of the best teams of the last couple of decades.

    Yes. Would have been back for the knockout rounds if Spain weren't so bad.

    I'd say this is worse. France got a point, Spain look like they'd be lucky to get that much.

    Well they have lost 2 already so the odds were already against them.

    It would also mean 2 dead rubbers as the last 2 games of the group.

    Spain strike me as a team that have run out of ideas. They've been absolutely stifled in both games and individual mistakes from Casillas/Alonso have cost Spain dearly.

    We are 13 minutes in, the Spanish wheel has started turning. The touch has become assured, the passsing adventurous, the pressing is aggressive.

    Not at all, the excuses are reasons and the reasons are staring you in the face. Obviously I hope that Barcelona and Spain overcome their issues because when it's done right there is nothing better in football than their tiki taka style of football in full flow but, despite my optimism, anyone can see the problems that the Catalan club and the national team are experiencing.

    Personally though I'm entirely upbeat about my next for Barcelona. Lucho seems to be aware that the end is nigh for this group and certain adjustments must be made. This tournament will be the clincher for the national team too. There are a host of terrific young Spaniards who can carry the torch that this group lit. The philosophy won't change, but the personnel must.

    Like an NFL kicker, if a goalkeeper's confidence/head goes, then that's it.
