  Spain will have to up their game this time round, more than what they did against Italy.

  Russia was playing total football against the Netherlands, so I'll expect them to play the same against Spain.

  Arshavin will be the main threat, Spain would have to field fast and strong defenders against him.

  As for goals, anyone can score

  
  Spain to win 2-1

  Aragones denies Fener deal 

  Spain coach Luis Aragones has denied claims by Fenerbahce that he has signed a pre-contract agreement to take charge of the Turkish club.

   

  Reports in the Spanish press had linked Aragones with the Super Lig side after he announced he would not be extending his contract with the Spanish FA following the European Championships.

   

  Those reports appeared to have been corroborated on Wednesday when Fenerbahce announced in an official statement that the 69-year-old had agreed a deal to take over from Brazilian coach Zico, who left the Istanbul outfit on June 10.

   

  But speaking to reporters on the eve of Spain's Euro 2008 semi-final against Russia, Aragones insisted that no deal had been reached. "I don't understand it because Luis hasn't signed anything with anyone," Aragones told reporters.

   

  He added that he did not believe the speculation surrounding his future would affect his players ahead of their clash with Russia in Vienna. "I don't think this will affect my team whatsoever," he said. "It's just another story. I have not signed anything with anybody."

   

  When asked if he had received a contract renewal as reported, he replied: "No, I have not received anything but that was already known (that I would leave)."

   

   

   

  Aragones worried that he may end up like Scolari too...

  Well, if Spain wins (which it most likely will), at least it totally deserved it. Spain's performance is tonight is sublime.

  Not like last night's match - Germany didn't deserve to win at all.
