Things really opened up for him and Guiza after Xavi's first goal. I just think Torres suits the English style alot more than the Spanish style.<BR/><BR/>Unrelated note, before this tournament, Spain has NEVER won a match in the Euros by more than one goal. That is mind boggling. Even now, Spain has only beaten Russia by more than one goal. If not for Hiddink, the streak would still be alive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25555967.post-18473242662729654752008-06-27T07:14:00.000-07:002008-06-27T07:14:00.000-07:00Well, Moin, point taken on Guiza.
