Silva and Cazorla, actors supporting actors

The Spanish team yesterday gave a recital of football in Boston. In the same place where Italy's World Cup gave us 94, but in a new field, thrashed Spain friendly to the United States (0-4). There was desire for revenge, because the Americans wiped out the Red last Confederations Cup, and even if it is true that Bob Bradley, coach, reserved some of his best men thinking about the Gold Cup is not less than Spain without Xavi or Iniesta, billed as a roller with Silva and Cazorla as major players in the first half. Spain, it became clear, has not yet been taken on holiday.

The Red, White yesterday, checked all the weight of the game. He returned to play football and effective. Lo de Silva, in particular, was a scandal. The canary is moved between the lines with an ease, a brash freshness and offensive phone were Spanish and one continuous scourge to American defense. In addition, he found a partner of the same ilk, Cazorla: short, clever and amazing quality. And if that were not enough, effective in front of goal. Joined the party Xabi Alonso, who gave a lesson in how to use the spaces with good passes, and Negredo, who wants to become real competition again. Together they created a fabulous first half.

Though the Gillette Stadium turf seemed to dry, this will not hurt the Spanish. Quite the contrary. The ball did not need too much speed because it's got the players and was the accuracy on the pass that came up. Cazorla Silva and his colleagues offered a set of walls opened again and again possibilities, paths to the goal of Howard . It was about time that Spain would open the can, though this time the referee delayed Silva annulling a legal goal by an offside Cazorla nonexistent. And although the bar was brought in a beautiful jelly Negredo, who won with skill behind the backs of American.

On the fourth time Spain built a sensational play from behind, playing short one or two touches and get the ball by Villa, whose shot was indeed very close to the goal. Everything, in fact, was the prelude to a landslide. We had to wait almost another quarter hour for Cazorla scored the first with an unstoppable left-footed shot from inside the box after a low cross from Silva, assisted by Xabi Alonso. And four minutes later the second. Negredo took another long pass from midfield to Gipuzkoa, this time, beat Howard with an accurate shot, the killer. There were no more introductions as possible, the function had begun.

Before the break, another play combinative of Spain went on to become 0-3. Silva became low cross a pass from Negredo and almost Villa to hook the ball but the ball ended up back at the foot of Cazorla, who scored the second goal of his private account. The Spaniard completed a great game, partnered well with everyone and gave the Spanish midfield dynamism. Like Silva, who was replaced as the second part by a debutant Borja Valero. Spain was not the same after the break, but not ceased. Not so often enjoyed, and similarly encircled the area of ​​the United States but remained faithful to his style.

The Americans made changes for the better. And Del Bosque, who ushered rest Bruno in the place of Busquets, Fernando Torres in Negredo Iniesta and Villa. Torres was close to take advantage of the great game of Xabi Alonso, for a Tolosa pass ended with a shot by Chelsea striker crashing into the wood. It seemed that Torres would also yesterday evil hidden behind the times. However, the Spaniard was able to find door, his goal scoring 200 in his career. It was after a pass from rookie Valero, who found a gap between the defense to assist you. Torres got his foot just enough to score, but with uncertainty, because the ball came before the post.

Spain finally biloped also in a friendly after winning the World Cup. Most significantly less common than men were the most prominent. This means that Spain has alternatives. Xavi and Iniesta are irreplaceable. However, Silva and Cazorla were at a high level. Torres scored but increasingly further threatened his job. And Negredo, plus Llorente, who wants to make a profit. Sevilla striker took yesterday's match very seriously and excelled more than Madrid. Also of note is the ease of Alonso when he feels something more player in the midfield. Everyone contributed to draw a conclusion: Del Bosque has a fixed plan and supporting actors also know how to be actors.
