Spain had a really good chance. The press listed us as number one. Spain does not have a tradition of barreling to the end. When it got underway, we lost the first game. No team has ever won the world cup after losing the first game. Spain was the clear winner. Anything can happen, anybody can beat anybody once you get to that level, that is what makes sports interesting. To watch it happening was glorious, but i complained the whole game. Spain, and they understood that they could not win just with skill. Cup final in history. Alonso, should have also been kicked out. Spain as a sign of, we are not going to get walked all over the place here, also collected five yellow cards. Netherlands could have scored, and they would have retreated to play defense and maintain their lead. They had a couple of chances. They would have met presidents and dignitaries and much of the world would have rejoiced along with them. Society has a problem.
