So there will be one more player on the pitch that I hate.
Nah that's Torres on the sideline warming up.
Still he missed easy chances.
what a way to end your career for VB
This is it for Van Bronckhurst?
Distinguished career, props to him

Don't Spain and Holland have a bad record in penalty shoot outs s well?
Navas' eyes make him look like a half human half lizard.
That should give time for Van Bronchorst to go and do the doping tests before coming to celebrate.
I know Holland has a bad penalties record.
ESPN Stats and Information: The latest winner in a Final was scored in the 105th minute by Mario Kempes in 1978 against the Netherlands.
Torres to come on ?
dammit i want a goal in a final we havent had one for 8 years.
Right thats it this game needs an injection of energy, get Kuyt on.
I dont agree with the BBC/Hansen assessment that Holland have just been about thuggery. Its been a very committed and disciplined performance which they deserves credit for implementing if not for the style.
Busquets reminds me of Carrick. He plays the same way. They have the same number, run the same way, move the hands the same way when they run and almost pass the same way.
only one way this is going...........PENS
Uh ... you sure about that?
Even England beat Spain on pens.
I guess RvN was fit too late for the Holland coach to trust him.
Spain could have done with their 1 on 1s falling to Villa really - or them passing in time
Fabregas and Robben could have written their names into legend!
How will that feel in years to come?

Despite the two scored in 06....
You could almost say they were quite similar in playing style.
I can only think of one PK win each by these two.
Spain v Italy
Holland v Czech Rep
Any else?
So there's every chance this will go on all night then.
Very harsh on carrick....
Suprised Villa is coming off for Torres.
His big moment, next season its Europa League

Torres will score. Spain will continue creating chances, and Torres will score on at least one.
Wow taking Villa off
Taking Villa off... wow.
Err... 1-1 4 years ago...
Torres will win it
Torres to become the name history will remember after having had the shittest tournament ever?
Wouldn't surprise me.
Wouldn't surprise me.
The fact that one of these teams will walk away with the World Cup riles me
Just showed the Xavi penalty claim again in slow motion, he kicked the dutch player then the floor and then threw his arms up in the air on the way down. Scouser starfish would be proud of that one.
What bring him back on?
Hansen, Shearer, Dixon and co are just desperate for Spain to win, you could see that before the game.

The Dutch defense is knackered. Torres will do them.
