Brazil cant keep this up for 90 mins, chasing every ball, closing every Spanish player down. It's going to catch up with them 2nd half.

 

That's exactly what I thought too. Was thinking that around half time they'll start tiring, then we'll see Spain start taking control. No way can they keep this up. I think it'll start happening before half time too.

 

edit : And Brazil have had several chances now, they should really be 2-0 up at least. Spain have really risked defeat with their performance so far though.

They don't have to. They've already eased up considerably, but pressure on the ball is still very good.

 

Spain are allowed a lot of possession, they've just been unable to do anything of note with it so far.

 

EDIT: And now they did. Denied by superb defending from Luiz

Do Spain really have no one better than Bob at right back? I'm sure Ramos would do far better than him in that position. Del Bosque should swap the two around.

 

Azpilicueta can't be that far behind, but it seems like they are falling into the same trap as many other successful teams by choosing the same players over and over until they eventually lose. It will be quite interesting to see how their squad will look in the World Cup.
