Not sure what the defender behind Thiago was doing...not going to blame the front one for missing on that header, the pass was really whipped in there.

rewatch it. Tello cut it back, the guy got his foot, and swept him after.

Could have been a no call as well, it wasn´t flagrant, and IMO uncomfortable to call, but he saw it perfectly.

Oh Dandy, look at how he throws his arms up and screams. He embellished it. After all the shite you talked about Italy flopping and wasting time, you can't be a bitch about it.

Looked to me like he got the ball first, then clipped him afterwards.

Spain's going to win anyway, but that looked like a bad call.

You saw his scream?

His beef was legit, no doubt.

Spain is worse than Italy when it comes to simulation and berating a referee. It's sickening. They play beautiful football, dominate their opponents, and for a lack of a better term their team is filled with 'Cheats.'

Spain embodies the best, and worst of the game.

Dandy you were spot on about Illarramendi. Very talented. Keeps it simple, doesn't give the ball away, and is solid in the tackle. Wouldn't mind Wenger splashing some cash on him at all.

If that wasn't called, 8 Spanish players would have run up in the ref's face screaming and waving their arms.

Didn't mean to say that the referee couldn't see or was in a bad position, just that he "missed" on the correct call IMHO.

I thought so too, but watch Tello cut it back with his right foot. It´s a penalty, but probably better to do a no call, and leave Tello bitching (who obviously would have a case as well).

It´s a final. Nine, possibly ten.
