I was amazed last night at the commentators level of surprise that big Dado handled so blatantly. He’s getting a bad reputation for overall discipline (ok he’s not malicious at all – just a very frequent offender).

Overall I thought they played pretty well in the circumstances and got a break they maybe deserved. The Spaniards should have put the game well beyond doubt but got far too casual in the second half.

M’on the coefficent points!
