Fair play to Webb, good ref.  Spain had issues with him though in the game they lost to the Swiss, why I dunno cos he done a good job in that one as well.

Financially i want Holland to win but football wise i'd prefer Spain to win it.
 
They play a much better passing style and they haven't got a diver like Robben or a dirty fooker like Van Bommel.

See Pepe Reina's inciteful insight today into the challenge facing Spain on Sunday:
 
"The key is to score more goals than them".

No they have a combination of both- Busquets- a diver and a dirty fooker!

Haha
 
But that's not what they're about. They're a great side to watch, similar to Barca - unsurprisingly with around 7 of their players in the team.
 
Holland will need to push them up the pitch as much as they can and try to stop them getting into their passing rythm (if possible). Spain are still dodgy at the back so it will be interesting to see if the Dutch can get at them.

Think Spain are the better football team but given Holland have been in two finals before against host nations don’t mind if they win either, just think Spain will have too much for them and they have been the best team for me in South Africa.

spain only coming into form now holland playing well all tournament, had these to meet in the final at 22/1 before it started.

11/10 is still great odds for spain
But fumble in a greasy till

And add the halfpence to the pence

And pray to shivering prayer, until

You have dried the marrow from the bone.

interesting game, spain are a great team, but holland have players that can win the game on their own. hope its a good game, but they rarely are. teams tend to be more concerned with not losing rather than winning it
