Both teams played very bad. Poor match. Spain was so uninspired. Portugal have to win spain in semifinal. Also I would like to see germany-italy semifinal(england played poor in group. Imho england has 0 chances vs germany). Italy can beat everyone in playoff stage
Spain were not uninspired.... They were winning, France was uninspired. Spain up 1-0 were perfectly happy to let the clock run and they did so. A boring match doesn't mean that both teams played badly. Look at the comment above you for more, it's very well put
The enigma that is France will go home, once again knowing that they never really got started and didn't do themselves justice, and with the way the camp is, it could still be a long time until we see the fruits of this talented bunch ripen. Spain keep plodding on at their own pace, knowing that when you have the ball, you cannot concede. They will be happy with another clean sheet and coming out of today's game with no one banned for the semi final.
What a shame and frustration, this is the most boring match of all euro thanks to the extreme fear of the french side. Instead of attack football, Blanc chose to park the bus and pray for a spanish mistake or a miracle from Benzema and Ribery. Les blues deserve this, and let's hope that Portugal will not play like them, they have the momentum and can defeat Spain
It was not boring, it was actually quite magical. T was fun to watch Spain's superiority and France's frustration and inability to make 2 passes. Portugal naturally play more opened, and have hopefully learned that if you only concentrate on defence and counters against Spain, you're getting crushed
It may have been fun to watch for a Spanish fan because Spain never looked in trouble, but believe me, for the neutral this game was a snore fest. Not blaming Spain, just saying it was not an exciting game, as sometimes possession football can be boring, especially for the neutral
Missed the match so I decided to pay the $2 to see the full replay on UEFA.com.... Man I could've had two McDoubles for that. Biggest waste of money. This game was unbelievably boring. It seemed like a friendly in which neither team cared about the outcome
What does del-bosque have against llorente. What does he have to do to get a game. Villa is injured and Torres is out of sorts yet Spain ignore Llorente, maybe there is something going on behind the scenes
Spain is just impressive. I don't think it was a boring game and I don't think france was that bad either. Spain is just outstanding and their technique is compensating the lack of goals
Wow Spain just busted my Euro 2012 bracket. So boogi. I really didn't expect them to go through any further. Why was Nasri on the bench? This French team is such a disgrace to the legendary generation before them. I had so much belief in them.
Spain plays the most boring soccer. Ruining the beautiful game
