The Spain goal against Scotland should note that Scotland was playing a 6-4-0 at the time...


Other than that, good read.

Great article that everyone should read, especially people who like to pretend that nothing has really changed since we didn't win more qualifying points than we did in 2010 or 2006.

quote:

In a tunnel beneath Rio Tinto Stadium after the game, a dazed and exhausted Roger Espinoza, the Honduran midfielder said, "That's a different team than the one we faced in February."

Half right: It's in The Wall Street Journal, but it is Journal style.

Mr. Klinsmann, a veteran of Germany's 1990 World Cup-winning team, revealed himself to his players as the father who can occasionally be pleased but is never truly satisfied. Execute a perfect pass, or play a perfect game with speed and aggression, and his reaction is: Do it again, and do it even better and faster the next time, every game, season after season.
