It was clear that one central midfielder had to leave for a winger. So Pedro for Xavi is fine.
But to punish Pique while Ramos and him both played bad is not understandable in my eyes. Not to mention Casillas who was even worse. I don't know it seems not right but maybe it is just because it comes from a Barca fan.
And Diego Costa does not fit this team. Cesc or Villa would be better.
I've enjoyed very much the play of Australia and also their physical shape, stamina, speed.
I've watched them in the previous world cups and I can say I like them.
at least you could argue that the players are sleeping and that bal just had to fall into the feet of the chilean
at lot of errors, no form, no confidence
i doubt they are able to beat australia
