Yep, eveytime Torres came on he had so many chances. They struggled to find the final pass without a striker and ended up trying to walk/pass the ball into the net. With a fit David Villa
it would've been frightening.

They didn't miss Puyol either, considering they only conceeded 1 goal in the whole tournament.

I have criticized them, but last night was a masterclass against what is a very good Italian team.
