Apparently these are a thing. Anyway, this is quite good. I don’t have much to say about this match, or the way Spain played, or the fact that people are angry that this wasn’t a “classic” semifinal, as if football owes you anything in a year when Sergio Aguero and Manchester City won the Premier League on the last kick of the ball. You take beauty when it comes, but don’t be silly and expect it, tapping your watch like a tourist.
