EURO 2012 REVIEW: SPAIN 4: 0 REP. OF IRELAND

The World and European champion once again showed class against the Irish in a match that saw the Chelsea talisman Fernando Torres score 2 goals with David silver and substitute Cesc Fabregas both grabbing a single goal each.
The game was never in doubt for the Spaniards from the beginning of the game with Fernando Torres being the fastest to react to a loose ball then rounding a defender and then putting the ball past Given, the Irish keeper could have actually done better in the 9th min. Then, the Irish found their rhythm and got back to the game but the game ended 1: 0 in the first half.
There was little the Irish could do about the second goal with David Silva rounding a couple of defenders before putting it past Given, the Irish would be grateful to their goal keeper for keeping them in the game with some stunning save from David Silva, Aberloa, Iniesta. But about half an hour, Silva pounce on a scramble from the Irish defenders to set up Torres for the second of the Night and was later substituted for Cesc fabregas who ensured the match was put beyond any doubt with the forth of the Night.
Spain currently sits in the 1st position with 4 points.
