Poor Russia, they were nowhere tonight, forwards faded even more in the second half.
Fabregas was brillant. It seemed easy most of the time.
So now, it's a o o o - pokkeherrie mano a mano for the first place. I wouldn't bet on the latter, but who knows, nominating the right guy for captain and it could do the trick. And prevent o o o from winning a big tournament again.
For the third place - as obviously the rest of us would have to have four captains to get higher - there's a pack of three teams with 211, 210 and 210 points, followed by another pack a goal and an assist away.
I hope Spain wins.
