Soccer/Football

Yesterday was fairly cagey stuff and Neymar is beginning to irritate me with his antics. Lots of rolling around and petty fouling.

Italy dominated the first half today and totally rattled and surprised Spain who did manage to regroup in the second half, but Italy could've been 2-0 up by halftiime It was a surprisingly good-natured game given the rivalry without any nasty stuff whatsoever. Good to see.

I wanted Spain to win, but only because I want to see Brazil play Spain and Italy would've been worthy winners today. What a cool series of penalties too (for 12 out of 13). I always love it if the keepers have to take one.

Final on Sunday!
