Spaniards on the stream of winning

Once again, Spain rattled its opponent Portugal with its meticulous tactics of passing and attacking panache and led themselves for 1-0 victory. None other but David Villa who has impressed a lot by precision striking in FIFA world cup this year and scored his fourth goal of the tournament.

I always wished Spain to win over Portugal as it is one of the most favorites teams of mine after Brasil. Spain was quite aggressive from outset and had almost 62% possession of the ball in first half. Fernando Torres and David Villa breached the defensive wall of Portugal in first ten minutes and hit 3 likely goals that were saved by brilliance of Portugal Goalie Eduardo. Torres once again was unlucky to score a goal after having terrific killing instinct of attacking.

A trademark Spanish passing found in the centre where Iniesta flicked the ball through Xavi who backheeled to Villa for charging in the left in the second half. The most expensive modern footballer Cristiano Ronaldo could not impress the world except he became the spectator of Spanish team work and quality passing. It seems that he is, yet, puffed up with unwanted pride after joining Real Madrid and did not inspire any of his team mate.

So we will surely see some more bombardments from Spain against Paraguay on Saturday and it looks that Spain will be ferocious in quarterfinal.
