Playa Hatin’

Group H – Game 2

Spain vs. Switzerland

ESPN – 10:00 AM ET

Spain:

I think more than any other team, Spain is getting the most votes for predicted World Cup Champion. And I don’t think we’re picking any differently on playahatin. Spain Is what you’d consider stacked – Outside of Brazil, I don’t think any team has so much talent. Yeah, The United States beat them in the Confederations Cup, but I think that was the “waking up of a sleeping giant” game that Spain needed. You have to consider that Spain, has lost only once in 49 games. They won the 2008 European championship and finished with a 10-0-0 record in World Cup qualifying. Their only defeat since 2006 was the 2-0 loss to the United States at last summer’s Confederations Cup, ending Spain’s record 35-game unbeaten streak. That my friends is pretty damn impressive! Spain plays fast, composed possession soccer laced with superstars at every position. Another run of good form could see Spain make their first appearance in a World Championship surprisingly.
