Good to see that the English appreciate Cesc more than the Spaniards. When Villa got injured and they brought Cesc into the game , the commentators said "Oh no, Villa's much more needed, who'll score our goals now??" and then proceeded on a thesis on how "Cesc Fábregas and Xabi Alonso don't play football the Spanish way" anymore *head desk* Yeah, I know, they bring some elegance to the game, how awfuuul! Even Fernando has changed his game style completely (for better)...and Cesc was definitely man of the match, with those lovely passes, ffs.

Anyways...Russia were like...lost in limbo and Spain definitely deserved to win, I just hope Germany will play them like they played Portugal.

Everyone's out on the streets celebrating and honking and whatnot...still sucks, not feeling anything much about this win *pout* Even though I love 4 Spanish players (Cesc, Xabi, Torres, Iker), I can't feel all yay about Spain for some reason *shrug*

And of course the commentators spent all the match (since minute 1) saying how Spain was already definitely in the final anyway *eye roll* They even shouted "Penaltyyyyy!!! Why does the referree not see the harm the Russians have done our poor babies, oh noes!!" around three times. I swear I have never (and probably never will) heard such biased commentary. But it happens in every sport in which they have Spaniards *sigh*
