Really liked Spain last night...a lot of sides would have lost their way

Holland didn't have enough belief in themselves when it really mattered and turned to kicking the opposition to get a hold on the game. I thought extra time in the final last night was really great to watch and the fact Iniesta got the winner made it a pleasing win.

Can you imagine the w**kfest we'd all be having if England won a world cup playing like Spain? I'm guessing the haters are a bit jealous, let's face it who wouldn't want there team to win football matches by keeping the ball for long periods of the game. Surely that's the point.

Oh and to the couple of posters who say it was like Greece in 2004, they must be on a wind up.
