[buzz]

i hope a basque or a catalonian share the same opinion as you...

anyway be cool guys...

sseppel sorry bro if I sounded offensive to your nation.
but you gotta understand that successful teams/players always have haters + lovers.

Nah, don't worry. I can see that we the fans (not only here in Spain, but everywhere) can be a real pain in the ass when their team wins. But something we demand to our athletes here is that they should be humble. Nadal, Pedrosa, and the majority of the members of the NTs are quite humble. Of course there are exceptions (Alonso, Lorenzo...) but in general terms our guys have a great respect for the rival, so it's not fair to lump them together.

spanish economy is not at its best either...anyway false alarm guy...i rest my case

We gave u money for your subsistence. Is a fact

[rikhardur]

Let's leave that issue there shall we people

RUDY FOR THE ALLEY OOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The double R connection is back.

[mayteromanl]

every tournament is the same, the boring spanish political system, flopping.... nonsense.

Please, lets pay our attention in the game, not really interesting at the moment... but we're ahead 10 pts, 28-18. Come0n guys!

[gatos]

what a great game? Good effort from the Tall Blacks.

Spain 48-44 New Zealand

They're keeping up D:

[LebaneseFan]

48-44 (spain), Respect for the New zealand team!! They are one decent center away from burying the spanish team, cameron is playing center and he is 6'6...

What's wrong with Spain?

agree. Even if Spain loses this game and finish fourth, they can still win the WC. Spain, Greece, Serbia, Lithuania, Argentina are all playing a lot worse than expected. Only the US has had two easy wins. I expect many of the favourites to go up a gear in the second round

[Srle]

Lets go Tall Blacks

[Cojayar]

What's wrong with Spain?

Scariolo.

Looks like spain decided to lose that game too. They eventually decided to face USA for the semi, so they have to fix the mess from yesterday

/humour off, nice game so far and nice also to see rudy back at "his" level.

A bit surprised to see newZ still in the game, and the lack of efficiency of spanish defense against penney.
