Spain 2 - 0 South Africa
Confederations Cup 2009 group stage · 2009-06-20 Referee: Pablo Pozo

too much

not

He missed a couple of harsh attacks in the beginning. Before things were getting too wild, Pozo decided to book some. Not all of them seemed correct to me, some heavy fouls were not corrected. Coaches and players should start reading WorldReferee better, then they would know this by now: Pozo is easy on the cards... Whenyou know, as an experienced player you should act differently.

misses

South Africa does miss experience. It still will surprise if they reach the second round at World Cup 2010. Though, in this tournament they were getting better by the match. Strange enough they've made it into the semi-finals, only because this group is so much weaker than the other group. Commercially attractive surprisingly. Hm, well if they stop using these terrible horns, then it's OK.
