It look a lot another Portugal's challenge for the European championship...Paraguay is playing a great tactical game, closing all spaces from mid-field donwards...the danger came only from the right-side of the field by Ramos and Iniesta...incredible pressing into Spain-midfielder once they have the ball...I wonder how long Paraguay can run like this...they had counterattack in 2 occasions and probably the goal scored by Valdez looked good from the replay... Will see if in the second half Spain's patience will prevail or not...
As with Portugal same scenario here...almost exactly the same: two penatly kicks missed for each team in less than 2 minutes, and then again the talent of Iniesta with a stroke of individual genius finally break in the strong Paraguay defense, and again Villa who scores his 5th goal in this World Cup decided with a cold-bloded finish...1-0 to move forward...
Spain has showed an incredible patience to get rid of the most walled teams, Portugal and Paraguay...in the end the talent of Iniesta and the magical moment of Villa put the game on their side.
Semi-final Spain-Germany is the rematch of last European Championships...perhaps soccer has a logic after all...
