Que distinto es cuando se juega con la cabeza. Un desastre el primer tiempo chileno, faltas innecesarias why dos regalos claros para españa, que culminaron en los goles. Estrada se merecía la tarjeta, pero no por la "falta" a Torres, menudo piscinazo. Contento por haber logrado la clasificación, pero el juego mostrado en la cancha deja muchas dudas, why me refiero al juego de ámbos equipos

Poor Chile, worked hard to make it through, now they have to deal with Brazil

I was very surprised because to be honoust, Spain was lucky to win this match, they were efficient. Chili was very good the first half and this could have been a difficult match if it was 11 against 11. Respect for Chili, they just kept attacking with 10 men, and they managed to keep Spain on their own half in the beginning, this is what we like to see instead of all the defending going on in this world cup

Yes! Spain qualified!  Though it was a good match from both sides, if Chile would have that sent player off they might have won the match

That ending was.... Like I wanted to kill everyone on that pitch, Poor Silva just standing there on the sidelines waiting to come on. Spain won't make it to the finals I don't think

I was sweating there for a minute when chile scored there 1st goal, thank god they didn't win, portugal would have to face a good team then but thank god we get the lisp speaking neighbors, euro 04 all over again

Ponce shouldve been booted out with a red card. He got off easy

EspaÑa! Good job guys.... Here we come Portugal!

Awful! Just discusting the what they played.... Hope Portugal will give them a hard time

I think Chile at times were playing really well, but they just kept making stupid stupid tackles and picked up a stupid amount of cards

Well, Spain's finished first as everyone had expected, but they got there in a way no one had expected. Losing a hugely one-sided first match to a hugely inferior team is theeee worst way of getting into a tournament. It sapped their confidence, and that showed - second game, they were just getting back on their feet via Villa (Torres being in worryingly bad shape), and obviously they managed to beat Honduras; but then, Villa misses a penalty and there's another bummer. Going into the last game, they knew they had to beat the strongest team they were to play in group stage, and it took a strange goal to get them on track.

It's been weird, and it's been very psychological. Many teams are out because they just suck, others qualified comfortably. Spain know and always knew how good they are, yet they were confronted with forebodings of defeat, disappointment and embarrassment very early on. "Nos hemos complicado la vida" is what Marca wrote after the Switzerland game, we've made life complicated for ourselves. That's what it was in my opinion, a complicated group stage. Yet I'm glad they're through and they certainly deserve it.

Now let's hope they've got the confidence to really start playing the furia-roja football I love them for

The silliest red card I have ever seen! I think Torres should have acted like a man and told the referee that he just crashed his own legs together!

Spain had to resort to flopping, acting, begging and defensive play as they faced a far more prepared Chilean side. I can't believe that even with the extra man, the #2 team in the world could not generate anything, except out of the two Chilean gifts.

It is too bad Chile have to face Brazil in the next round, but I highly doubt that they will make it easy for the worlds #1.

Spain must really train prior to their octavos de final vs Portugal. They showed lack of spirit, and to be honest are not showing themselves as the favorite that everyone wants to see. They did manage to get the 3 points which is what is important, but the best team on the field did not win this match.

Chile is the Darkhorse call, making a huge impression in the world stage

This is way bringing Llorente was wrong in the first place.... Who the hell is going to sub Torres when we need 2 strikers?
Pedro? Llorente?

Pedro is an great player but he isn't suited for a 4-4-2 formation (next to Villa)
Llorente is an unmoving giant, much like Peter Crouch, who's only good for headers.
Guiza or even Negredo are who needed to be on the final 23

Good game
