You can bet on Spain again.
Tis a wonderful thing to have a country oozing skill and technique capable of being considered a
worthy contender without the qualifying phrase "but...but...but...it's Spain!". It simply
makes tournaments that much more scintillating and victory for the winners (if not Spain) that much
more delicious.
A lot of commentators here in England think that some of the very much smaller European nations
(San Marino, Lichtenstein, etc.) should not even be able to take part in the qualifying rounds for
the 2010 World Cup football finals. They think there should be a separate qualifying tournament for
these countries and only the winners should be allowed to compete in the World Cup qualifiers
proper.
