Half time and total domination from Spain but no goals. This reminds me of the first half between Italy and Turkey. Italy won 3-0 in the second half. Teams get exhausted when they have to chase the ball so much.
I'm really out touch with European football since the Champions league moved to BT Sport. I thought Fernando Torres was playing for the first 20 minutes 🤣
@SW-User I've never had a SKY subscription. I watch games in the pub. Went to the first one for a while on Saturday but it was the Denmark game so a bit of a downer.

@Burnley123 Sky was my old man indulgence, I never go to the pub even pre covid.
Hehe and to think Sweden nearly scored with their first trip into Spain's penalty area that would of been a sucker punch and a half but yeah like you say if Sweden keep running around chasing the ball they'll tire in the second half and bigger gaps will open up. 乂ᴼ◡ᴼ乂
@Nyloncapes Spain doesn't even seem to be trying to walk it into the goal, just walk it everywhere else. Are they even trying to score?
I remember when they lost to Russia in the World Cup. I almost fell asleep watching. 120 mins of boring Spanish passing against boring Russian defending.
