Exactly. I can't understand the people calling Spain 'boring' yet this somehow isn't.

Because of the styles of play. Spain are horrible defensively so they have to keep the ball away from the other side...thus you have a match where there are a million boring passes that go nowhere with intention of wasting time..especially if they get a goal; the England style is to counterattack so there is a lot more action and attacking. IMO while the England style isnt nearly as 'technical', its a lot more fun to watch.

Exactly, action > mindless passing it about for 90 minutes.

it had 0-0 written all over it if everyone was honest.

Italy were pretty close to scoring at some points, so England can be glad to be alive if everyone was honest :D

Mindless :D It's anything but mindless, tbh.

Exactly. Oh well. If you can't see it, you can't see it. (I've got the feeling that I may have seen these arguments before :D)
