Spain comfortably beat Honduras 2-0

Spain's number 7,David Villa,scored twice to finally get Spain's World Cup campaign up and running;in fact Villa could have got a hat trick if he hadn't missed a penalty.There were many chances to score a hat-ful of goals but Spain lacked the clinical touch and Torres missed at least two good chances to add to the goals.Although the number '7' seemed to feature again,like in Portugal's match earlier today,Spain couldn't match Portugal's scoreline.Villa clearly showed why Barcelona paid 35 million pounds for him,with his dazzling twisting and turning to score that stunning opening goal.However,he was lucky not to get yellow carded when he aimed a petulant slap at Izaguirre.
So a comfortable victory but perhaps that missed penalty and goal scoring chances might be important in goal difference to progress to the next round.
