In Spain TV have said that Torres is well already in the dressing room.

But they're going to make a scanner as a precaution.

deleted because i just reread your comment. thanks for the info.

[dodojojo 510]

Spain really needs to start promoting some of their youth defenders because Albiol and Arbeloa are not the answer to when the starters like Puyol and Ramos are out.

dodojojo, you asked how it happened? I didn't see it myself but TVE said there was a clash of heads, felt dizzy, went deaf.

LATEST NEWS: Torres is being moved to a hospital in Bari to make a scanner. In principle he's well, it is just as a precaution. Confirmed that It's a little concussion.

[dodojojo 510]

Wow, scary. I've been there. I had the opposite problem, I could hear but couldn't talk.

Hopefully, a bit of rest and no bright lights, and he'll be okay.

No ankle or muscle injury. Concussion is the problem. Would be surprised if he's even on the bench against Stoke come Sunday.

Reports are he's okay but getting a scan as a precaution. What happens after that, who knows. Concussions are hard to gauge.

Can people extend the rioting?

Kidding, kidding...

Ganso is freaking good!

Neymar is not bad, but he can go to Real or Barca.

I would love to get Ganso!

Italy 2 - Spain 1. Aquilani.

[dodojojo 510]

For those who think Aquilani is useless...wasn't just the goal, he played well.

AS is reporting Torres was disoriented in the dressing room, hmmm. Wonder when he clashed heads? Did he try to play on for awhile? Hope not.

Conor Clifford didn't get on Hope Torres is ok

I'm watching France vs Chile, Jorge Valdivia is really a good player, playing for Palmeiras.

Great games of Yann MVila and Marvin Martin, the last one is so much more interesting than Nasri !

How did Benzema do?

Valdivia is good. I seen him with Chile in the team, but i rather take Ganso. Boy that guy is a great passer.

Ganso and Josh? Killing some teams with those passes!

The latest news from TVE said that Torres is totally well and the scan has been succesful.

Maybe he has a few days of rest, but probably he can be available for Stoke match.

[dodojojo 510]

Fantastic news Javi. Thanks.

Would appreciate if you can pass on details of exactly what happened? I don't remember seeing any clash of heads but I had a bad stream.
