Doesn't that make Spain's offense the opposite of on fire? Instead, foolish and off target?
Besides, if Germany had been unleashed it would have been a MUCH different game w/ Spain under much more pressure -- which they aren't accustomed to. But Lowe --I think Riddick is dead on here-- made a tactical error which allowed Spain to hang out in their comfort zone w/o pressure. Frankly, I wasn't impressed at all. Granted, they did play a tick better than they have been... But not what I'd call great. Their offense was a damn mess to be perfectly honest. Germany's mid-field playing too much behind the ball simply allowed Spain more opportunities than they should have had and allowed to the defense to basically nap.
Provided that Netherlands comes out swinging and NOT repeating the same damned mistake that EVERY team to face Spain has made --stay behind the ball, contain, and wait for mistakes -- I fully expect the dutchmen to win it. I only wish that Lowe hadn't repeated the same mistake as everyone else...
