Isco

[Semi-Neutral]

Look how far back his left foot goes, you guys in your Sunday league must have had the balance of tight-rope walkers to be able to stand on just one foot leaning in that angle.

Lolz dive or Textbook foul?

The English and american obsession with 'diving' is indicative of their naïveté in football.

 

[mixer]

the contact is tiny, he could easily stay on his feet and go past the player there but he takes the easy option and takes a dive instead, you don't see players going to ground like that at the sunday league team i played for, we took kicks all the time and just got on with it...

Are you mad? I would sent off the looser who has clearly kicked Isco.

If that was a dive then what is this?

On the other hand it's not, that serious. Foul? Yes but likely not a card, likely not even a yellow.

Don't feed the trolls.

what a talent he seems much better than thiago

 

[Galning]

He's a great player but don't think he's better than Thiago at this very moment.

 

[Indignado]

what a talent he seems much better than thiago

no...

 

[DonAndres]

He does everything with such flair, one of the main attacking triggers for Spain tonight.

The transition between Illaramendi->Koke->Thiago->Isco was amazingly fluid

 

[zanela]

Given Isco today had a free role, and saw more of the ball. Its easy to stand-out. What Thiago does, however, is more important, but unfortunately goes unnoticed.

 

[ryaninho]

I'm afraid he was better than thiago tonight

 

[Elite-BkD]

^Nope, no way, performed quite different functions, only if you're judging the amount of skillful flair did he surpasss Thiago.

 

[Mr Hulot]

It is not a competition between the two of them! Both played great in their respective roles. Isco was amazing once again, even though he made some cheap dives...

 

[USWAY]

Isco and Thiago are the next rulers of Spain's midfield. I'm not one for squad stacking, but I would love to have that for Barca too

 

[kingleo]

what a player! Seriously talented! I love watching him play.
