The best English team is making us always enjoy a historic moment, because never before Spain played a World Cup semi-final. Unreachable and unknown territory that now greets us with open arms, welcoming us with the smile of who have long awaited. Selection was never before so close to paradise, the glory which we had always denied. Because they are a semi paradise for those who never was there, but not content to stand there.
Spain has made this success story as experienced as earned against Paraguay, who had offered more resistance than anyone else, but eventually surrendered to Villa's feet and hands of Casillas. The first mention again the second goal and Casillas recalled the best ever, that we had stopped a moment to learn to appreciate how big it is. For Casillas the best goalkeeper in the world, the captain of a team that is already among the top four of the tournament. He stopped a penalty when all was 0-0, when Spain was the lead gave us two critical interventions. They say that every great team is built from a great goalkeeper and a striker scoring. Spain has the best of the tournament.
Walking in Spain for the World Cup has become an exercise in patience, in a test of strength, confidence and style in an idea, in short, on a test players confidence in themselves. Rivals build a wall and Spain was forced to demolish the possession, touch and patience, patience. The process is long and not easy to remain calm without deviating from the path laid out two years ago. Spain remained calm and when he had always retained the style ideas. Only the strongest teams, the best constructed are capable of doing. And in this World Cup is not built better selection than Spain.
Paraguay, a selection worked very well tactically, demanded that Spain had requested him not one, not even Portugal. He collected fine lines, closed spaces and gave the ball without any pretense. They're used to the ball is more time in the opponent's feet. Spain has the soul of a poet, on the contrary that the combination of Paraguay, a block with a selfless spirit clerk, without any passion for opera and that has trouble rhyming verses. But on his own, no better than Paraguay. The same confidence that Spain has in its style, Paraguay is in yours. Provided that Spain went to the window of the goal, Paraguay reminded him that he lacked a stamp, a signature, the policy was incomplete. Come back tomorrow.
And Spain again, but without the clarity and freshness needed to distract the Paraguayans. Team played with the blinds half-up, without allowing the light that enters your game. Lacked fluency and speed of movement of the ball throughout the first half was unable Selection to find a crack in the perfect lattice of the Paraguayan defense that move as if they were only one. Harmonic motion lab born Martino. A laboratory that wiped out the goals for most of the night. And the only ones found in the first part were the Paraguayan goal disallowed on a dubious Valdez Cardozo offside.
Del Bosque He struggled to find suitable option, but each change only served to return to the starting point. Throughout the first half, Team walked in circles without getting anywhere. Startup surprised Forest with a picture of the team. Villa rescued from the left edge, where both had shone, and he stood as a center forward, with Torres 'shot' on the right and Iniesta on the left. The duel in the middle of the field was reduced to three on three, with the help of Iniesta in the selection and Riveros by the Paraguayan side.
Martino And it also changed the face of the team, but not the spirit. Barreto appeared in midfield with Caceres and Santana, while coupling exerted Riveros, behind Cardozo and Valdez. Paraguay pushed the line up and took the pressure to the edge of the English area. Cost Spain overcome this first line and was forced to mix the game with long balls touch. The problem is that the responsibility is handed over most of the time Pique and Puyol. When he did Xabi Alonso, Spain and Paraguay thanked him what he suffered.
The perfect tactical execution of Paraguayan Del Bosque prompted to look back and undo the drawing. Villa returned to his favorite habitat in this World Cup, the left, Torres became the model for the center and Iniesta is situated on the right. Repeated maneuver several times without success.
Going through the locker room and distracted the Paraguayans and awoke to the English. Ten minutes were enough to see the forest for not going down that road to nowhere. It was decided to seek more touch with Cesc and retired to desafortunadÃsimo Torres, who is perhaps best that can be said is that you put the right boot on each foot.
Cesc's entry coincided with the revolution, with three minutes of madness. First Piqué decided to dance with Cardozo caught within the area. Paraguay went to the penalty spot and the launch was stopped Casillas. Came the angel with larger hands. The teams continued to play Russian roulette, but the gun changed hands. Alcaraz was misled for a moment, Villa won it back and ended up down in the area. Another penalty, but the most historic. Xabi Alonso made it. Too easy and Guatemalan referee Carlos Batres ordered repeating because Cesc had come a few inches in the area. Xabi picked up the ball, but this time Justo Villar perceived her release. By rejecting anyone came before Cesc and was himself shot down by Villar. Batres looked away. Spain did not lose orientation with such a stir. He kept the ball, moved by the center, right and left, but more progress than they had done before. Tried to revitalize the game Del Bosque, who retired Xabi Alonso and Pedro sought opportunism.
Meanwhile, Paraguay gave the counter without any shame. He took refuge in the vicinity of your area and what action relied primarily isolation that could only be born of fortune. And not born, because this time the game awarded to those most sought victory. It was seven minutes remaining when, after a subtle pass from Xavi, Iniesta went to the rival goal with the decision that had never before done in South Africa. The little genius saw Peter's right, it's shot ended up in the post and the rebound ended up in the foothills of Villa, who scored his fifth goal of the World with the suspense that required the stage. Decided the ball hit the post before embracing the network.
But I could not end there suffering, that lasted as long as the hands of Casillas, who completed the work of Villa with two new interventions available only to the elect. Detour consecutive shots and Santa Cruz Barrios and finished lighting the way to Spain to paradise.
