Confederations Cup 2013 - Final: Brazil 3-0 Spain

[Raed]

This is what Asian football brings to the table, an incredible team just short of world class maturity. Having been born in Asia (Middle East), I am so proud of Asian countries. Although money plays a big part but Asian football is advancing much faster than African. Japan were undone by Brazil, on pure individual skills. The 3-0 loss to Brazil is very misleading, had they attacked Brazil like they did with Italy today, the host nation could have been in big problems. Japan needs composure up front and at the back, the technical skill set and tactics are very solid. Team cohesion is excellent. Just need to grow out of that under dog mentality and Asian teams will prosper.

Hope to see UAE in the next Confeds cup!

Well at least they seemed quite happy about it..

Spain are 250/1 to score one goal. Lol.

 

[Ode to Django]

Pointless watch tbh. Whoever starts upfront will be a lucky boy, nice bit of stat padding

 

[BarcaVillain]

Torres to start and fail to score then...

Tahiti coach said Spain could score 15-20. I doubt Spain will score more than 5 or 6 as they will just keep the ball and get like 92% possession. I wish they would try to get at least 10.

Odds are insane, betting over 5 goals gives you a crap payout. I think it will be under 10 goals.

surley they wont just pass it around after scoring 3 or 4 that would be so pointless! Tahiti cant hurt them, i hope they just attack for the whole match!

Torres and Villa to both get at least 3 each!

 

[Flavia]

Spain: Reina, Azpilicueta, Albiol, Ramos, Monreal; Javi Martínez, Mata, Silva, Cazorla; Villa y Torres

I can't find Tahiti starting 11.

 

[DonAndres]

If you bet a dollar on Tahiti and they win, you get paid back 250. That's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Edit: Actual betslip says 500 for a 1-0, 2-1, or 3-2 win.

 

[impeh]
