In preparation of the Euro 2008, the Spanish national team played yesterday an international friendly game against the United States. Spain won the match with 1-0.
Puyol and Xavi played the whole match. Iniesta has been ill this week and was rested. Xavi scored the only goal of the match.

Even though Spain dominated the game I thought they looked slow and lethargic, especially in the first half. I don't know why Torres was on the pitch when he was 70% at best. I would have rested him and started Guiza instead. The second half subs of Senna and Guiza seemed to add more life to the attack. And even though Xavi scored the only goal I thought Ramos was easily the player of the match - always on the attack making runs forward and making a lovely pass into the box that I believe it was who Torres?? headeded it out wide. Still a very underwhelming and unimpressive performance "friendly" notwithstanding.
