Oh.My.God that is all I can say.
The World Cup ride had been a crazy one.Spain had been crazy.Paul the Octopus had been crazy. Spain started their first game with Switzerland and they lost.freaking.lost. The next day I went to work, I felt nausea and sick. I didn't realized I was that obsess with the team. Facebook is evil and can't believe how fucking annoying people can be. After losing the first match, it was DO OR DIE for Spain.Thank God we managed to survive the group stage by winning the rest of the games and top the group.
Round of 16 - Spain played Portugal and knowing C-Ron, he doesn't usually play well under pressure. I don't know why - maybe the pressure makes him afraid to commit any mistake. David Villa saved us by scoring the only goal at 63'. The highlight of the game was when C- Ron spitting at the cameraman. Well, he didn't exactly spit at the cameraman but the gesture suggested so.
Quarter final - I was still digesting the fact that we made through the group stage and when Spain made it to quarter final, I got scared because the higher you fly, the further you fall. And once again, David Villa stepped up to the game and scored the winning goal at 83'
Semi final - At this point, I already stop thinking. Die Mannschaft had been awesome. The young guns like Mueller, Ozil, Klose, Podolski and Schweinsteiger were ruthless. They thrashed Australia, England and Argentina. And then there was this Paul the Octopus and the old guy predicted that Spain will win against the Germany.*gasp* The crowd was obviously not amused. You see, Paul had been correct in predicting all of Germany's games at earlier stage. When Paul gave such prediction, I think it somehow affected the players mentally. You can its absurd to put your faith/destiny on Squidward Tentacles's relative but sports men are one superstitious species. Germany didn't play like the usual. "They can't play" quoted my hubby. Carles Puyol the awesome number 5 came to the rescue at 73' and Spain made it to the final for the first.time.ever! For me, semi final is the best game ever. The feeling of winning semi final is just..i don't know..somehow,greater than winning the final. Of course, winning semi doesn't mean you already won but you've beat the odd and in final, that's a different story.
I celebrated like Spain already won the cup haha.
Final - La Furia Roja vs Oranje. Guess what Paul predicted?Win for Spain.haha.Paul and his "i-don't-give-eff-face" chose to eat out off Spain's box. That gotta be a good sign right?wrong. I,por el contrario think that Paul's prediction will only jinx the team. I watched the game with one eyes closed and I think I died few times during the game. Referee Howard Webb refused to end the tournament without making a mark. Lets just say, he's card happy that night (or was it happy card? *_* ). The game went extra time and at 116', Andres Iniesta sent Spain to the moon (and came back). Iker Casillas cried like a 10 year old.Cried is a little understatement. He *wails* the moment Iniesta scored.
With that goal, Spain is now the winner of FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010 and Iker sealed the win with a kiss *T___T*
