Chile were fantastic. A guy I work with was saying don't sleep on them as a dark horse, and through 2 games, they've looked the best side in terms of performance.
As for Spain, they got burned by conservatism, basically. This isn't the demise of Spanish football, but it is of this team and del Bosque as NT boss I think. There's A LOT of great young talent in Spain that should have been given a chance this World Cup but weren't. Playing three holding midfielders worked before, but every single one of them is older now, and so it Iniesta, etc. One of the all-time great teams that simply aged.
