Muller aka Ballboy( Madonna's words) scored the first goal, what a slap in that druggie's face.

Good thing both brazil and argentina out of the world cup.
Had they played in the final, there would be have a riot all over the country and people would have had to die for needless useless baseless cause.

Thanks to Allah for saving our land, property and lives.

Spain Vs paraguay up next

[al-Sagar]

Paraguay v Spain line-ups:

Paraguay: 1-Justo Villar; 2-Dario Veron, 14-Paulo Da Silva, 21-Antolin Alcaraz, 3-Claudio Morel, 8-Edgar Barreto, 11-Jonathan Santana, 15-Victor Caceres, 16-Cristian Riveros, 18-Nelson Valdez, 7-Oscar Cardozo.

Spain: 1-Iker Casillas; 15-Sergio Ramos, 3-Gerard Pique, 5-Carles Puyol, 11-Joan Capdevila; 14-Xabi Alonso, 8-Xavi, 6-Andres Iniesta, 16-Sergio Busquets; 9-Fernando Torres, 7-David Villa

Referee: Carlos Batres (Guatemala).

[al-Sagar]

BBC Sport's Paul Fletcher at Ellis Park, Johannesburg:

"Spain are unchanged for the third straight game so Fernando Torres continues alongside David Villa - but I make it an astonishing six changes for Paraguay. They include forward trio Roque Santa Cruz, Lucas Barrios and Edgar Benitez all dropping to the bench. They had not scored a goal between them here in South Africa."

[al-Sagar]

Spain, joint-favourites for this tournament before it began with the recently departed Brazil, have never taken part in a World Cup semi-final head-to-head encounter. Beat Paraguay, and in a tournament that produces a little bit more history every day, they can create some of their own. For the Paraguayans, that job’s already done.

Casillas should be replaced by Valdes/Reina. Casillas was the weak point of Spain in this world cup so far

Valdes, are you serious? reina is good. But I would take an out of form Casillas than peak form Valdes :P

[al-Sagar]

and kick off

[al-Sagar]

paraguay with a good early chance ...........

[al-Sagar]

corner for Spain...

[al-Sagar]

Spain are lining up slightly differently from what I can see so far, with David Villa in a more central role, Fernando Torres on the right and Andres Iniesta down the left.

[_Rafi_]

Shaky Spain.

[al-Sagar]

11 mins... no goals

Valdes improved a lot in last year and forced Bosque to include him in the squad. He was crap GK earliar

[_Rafi_]

Spain is taking too much time to pick up the tempo. As a team of their quality expected to go and bang.
