Spain's defense was ineffective and the keeper, Casillas, made huge blunders.

That first van Persie goal was ab-so-fucking-lute-ly beautiful.

for pretty much the duration of the Cup. This being the USA , I had to explain to him that the entire country would shut down whenever Spain had a match. "You know, like the Super Bowl." Hell, at this rate, they may not even advance to the knockout stage.
