Villa again! Very difficult first touch, very difficult shot, and he
sinks it. Man he's the guy for them. 5 goals now.

1-0 Spain 82'

But those 3 minutes were very caotic.

Villa! I'm a little sorry for Para but now they are tired...

Somehow, I think it's too bad the ball didn't go the out again after
hitting the 2nd post, it would have fit the game's narrative better :)

But it's deserved, and I'm very very much looking forward to
a Spain-Germany semifinal.

If only Paraguay could equalize so we could have more 30 minutes of this...
not going to happen, though.
