World Cup
qualification was at stake for Spain last Tuesday in Paris. They could not fail
and they did not. “La roja” made a great match that once more did not fail in a
major game. Referee forgot cards in the first half and French players took
advantage of it to make five or six really dangerous tackles. In the second
half, Pogba committed two very silly actions. Firstly, he hit with his knee
Xabi Alonso’s face. A minute later, he tackled the other Xabi with a clear
intention of injuring him. It seemed that he wanted to get self-expelled. It is
a good thing this time referee did not give French players more presents. The
main gift was refusing to indicated a very clear penalty committed by the
French goalkeeper over Pedro. In any case, let us forget referee. Let us talk
about the great work of Iniesta or the great couples formed by Xabi Alonso and
Busquets in the midfield on the one hand, and Pique and Sergio Ramos in the
back line on the other. Let us talk about Pedro who has already scored ten
goals in this qualification stage and he once more scored yesterday the victory
goal. And finally, let us talk about Valdes who perfectly replaced Casillas by
saving several some very clear goal occasions. Now there are three matches left
with national teams such as Finland, Byelorussia and Georgia. They must prevent
unexpected events like the one lived with Finnish players last Saturday in
Gijon. Lesson should be learnt.
Apart from
this, all major national teams fulfilled the goal except England who drew in
Montenegro and Argentina who also drew in Bolivia, in a match that once more Argentinean
players felt the great effort that means to play from so many altitude meters.
If you do not believe this, ask Messi about it. He ended up vomiting because of the high fatigue. In the coming week, champions
league returns. Football schedule does not have a break so let us enjoy the
show.
