Spain good god that team is loaded

Will the U.S. ever be able to field any team as stacked as that Spain Olympic squad?

Still a disgraceful embarrassment that we didnt qualify

Have they decided the groups yet?

Would love to see if Uruguay or GB can make a run at Spain in the gold medal match

We probably had the best team we've ever had this past year.

Miserable coaching and injuries.

The rest of the Olympic field should tremble. Spain is losing, and will lose, a friendly with Senegal.

Getting the kinks worked out.

Spain has another preparatory friendly, this time against Mexico in Las Palmas (Grand Canaries).

They then open their olympic odyssey with Japan.

Javi Martínez knocks in the only goal, in a match which Spain dominated.

The Spanish Olympic team had their first training session after their arrival in Scotland today, with the forward Iker Muniaín training alone for a part of it. The team will face Japan in Scotland as their debut in the London Olympics. Spain, who arrived in Glasgow late last night, had the training at the University of Strathclyde. The coach Luis Milla is hoping that the team will adapt as soon as possible to the schedules and weather conditions they'll have for their competitive debut, next Thursday, in Hampden Park, at 14.45 local time. The squad went to the training pitches this morning, where they exercised for an hour. Iker Muniaín continued to work on recovering from a slight thigh injury which leaves his involvement for the debut in doubt. The only session of the day included some physical exercises, ball work and a practice match on half a pitch.

Winning is never boring, but I'm sure not winning, and hearing all about how others are doing it continuously, can get tremendously tedious and tiring.

Enjoy your prolonged nap.

It must. If you're referring to this and other threads of mine, I am simply trying to evangelize the heathen. Evangelize the heathen.

Why do you rage and imagine a vain thing?
