Cescy football at its finest.
I've found myself reverting to expletive non sequiturs (all deleted to improve readability, mind you), to characterize the sheer magnitude of my approval for the two assists from Cesc Fabregas in Spain's 3-0 Euro 2008 semi-final victory over Russia.
It's a violation of site policy to throw around terms like "show down" and "epic clash" willy-nilly; but for the case of Sunday's Spain-Germany final, it's warranted.
Russia's Dutch manager Guus Hiddink said after his side's 3-0 reversal, "It is a very deserved win. It's very difficult to play against a team like that who can play one-touch football.
"We could handle Torres and Villa in the first half okay, but with the change to a midfielder in there [Cesc] came more mobility."
Hiddink's tone and body language indicated that he was stopping short of revealing the extent of his thoughts on the Fabregas substitution, which are believed to include, "Dammit, why did they have to send on Cesc. We were like lambs to the slaughter with that kid in there."
