Class penalties all right, the very first by De Rossi was some way to start them off. Chip down the middle, ala Pirlo in the Euro's against England.

Pirlo's pen in the Euro's, would be my favourite penalty , after Joe Harte acting the t**t beforehand

First one was Candreva. De Rossi put his into the top corner. I was wondering at that stage would any of the Italians try the chip. Didn't think it would be the very first one. Don't think Casillas dived to either side for Pirlos penalty, maybe he was expecting Pirlo to do the same thing as last year.

Spain's pens were just as impressive. 2 centre halves
and a defensive midfielder among them.
Hope Spain destroy brazil and Neymar is embarrassed.
He badly needs to be taken down a peg or 3 before next season

Ah Candreva yeah, his was chipped down the middle.
Balotelli was a loss for the Italians.. made sure he was missed by his tweets on twitter..

This could be a cracker. Some start.

rodney trotter · June 30, 2013, 11:43:14 PM

Some clearance by Luiz. Great end to end stuff, no surprise.

Tony Baloney · June 30, 2013, 11:44:46 PM

Decent finish. Poor defending.

laoislad · June 30, 2013, 11:45:05 PM

Brilliant finish from Neymar.
2-0 to Brazil.

Wildweasel74 · June 30, 2013, 11:47:15 PM

Brazil playing really well here, Game likely should be about 3.1 at the minute, but spain def aint going to walk the world cuo next yr, with the south American teams looking to be fairly strong this time next yr!1

Captain Obvious · June 30, 2013, 11:48:04 PM

Brazil looking good 2-0 up Spain look wrecked after the extra time from the last day still a great goal line clearance from sideshow Bob.

laoislad · June 30, 2013, 11:55:49 PM

Spain 17/1 to win in 90mins and 6/1 to lift the cup.
Might be worth ten yoyos on the latter.

It has been a great wee taster for Brasil '14. Outside of Spain and possibly Germany it is hard to see a decent challenge coming from Europe.
