Day 4 - Day of Goals
The first three days of the European Champions yielded only nine goals, but on the 4th day seven goals were scored. Goals are good. Goals are right. Goals work. Goals clarify, cut through, and capture the the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Goals, in all forms, goals for life, for money, for love, knowledge have marked the upward surge of mankind.
What, Gertrude?
It’s greed? Hmm. I like my version better.
Spain’s David Villa led the day’s scoring with three goals alone. In fact, Spain is so good the other teams in the tournament have hired USA’s Eddie Johnson to hang around La Roja’s camp. Eddie Johnson is known worldwide as “The Cooler.”
16 for 20
Spain shot like Kobe Bryant with a startling 16 out of 20 shots on goal (80%) generating their 4 goals.
Best Game
Spain – Russia. The score beguiles Russia’s play. Russia had chances – including hitting wood. (Hitting Wood is my pen name for Playboy letters!) Spain’s defense looks suspect and they better get it together before they get to the knock-out rounds. Still, for pure team play, few can rival Spain’s technical abilty. They are a blast to watch.
Best Face Paint
Fact! Swedes are born blue and yellow and they tan white! Also they are all nerds.
The Final Whistle
Creepy!
Rating for the Day
Four out of five Mozarts. Goals! We love goals!
