There was a time when stoppages per game with the selection we embargaba apathy. Fully submerged in league action, which was unattractive to root its rapid pace to challenge rivals pachangas semidesconocidos where the good football was conspicuous by its absence. How far is this. What a pleasure to rest for a few days of knives that catch the shuttle to enjoy 90 minutes of real indoor soccer. Wednesday's victory by 5-0 to Venezuela, was a real delight for the viewer anywhere in the world. Goals turned into works of art.
Spain cleared the slight doubts that might have awakened in quotes above, with a barrage of football and sometimes before which nothing could make a Venezuelan team totally overwhelmed. But the best was not the conclusive result, but the heavenly game displayed and that Spain has a staff privileged. A selection quite different from that proclaimed European Champion in 2008, but considerably improved. Key players were missing until recently: Xavi, Villa, Torres ... His absence is not noticed.
Silva, Iniesta, Cesc ... global Cracks in the Spanish midfield that are associated over and over again going crazy to Zagas rivals. On the bench players like Xavi Mata would be stars or any other selection. Next to players with an enviable future Muniaín, Thiago and Javi Martinez. And to top it off, others like Adrian waiting for their chance in the sub 21. The generation of players enjoyed by Spain in this decade is so bestial, that discards could form another title contender team in Poland and Ukraine.
Just Silva
I do not highlight any player above the rest, because yesterday's Spain was a joint exhibition with the participation of each and every one of the players. With Iniesta recovering the desired shape before his audience motivated Cazorla, Cesc signing the end a great performance with the national team, Busquets increasingly establishing itself as the best defensive midfielder in the world ... but my weakness for me from David Silva not stand for a minute therein.
I remember when last September, the City player demanded a more prominent role in the selection . He has earned. His present is already recognized worldwide and its projection seems to have no ceiling. Silva is so good that shines both rough and tough football, the Premier, surrounded by peers of features as diverse as Yaya Toure, Aguero, Dzeko or Balotelli, as in the delicacy and precision surgery in Spain. It is able to accommodate the around him, and at all levels becomes a leader.
Soldier gets on the train
He jumped onto the field late in the second half, yet he had time to present his credentials to Del Bosque. A hat-trick that made clear his sharp eye for goal, despite missing a penalty. Counting Llorente as a fixed Euro, and leaving aside the question of Villa, it seems that Soldier, Negredo and Torres will fight for a place. And Valencia has started the final sprint to the finish while others are not even up yet on the bike.
