Positives for Spain I can see:

1) No Muller for semi; big miss

2) Spain aren't playing at anything like their potential but have done enough to make it so far

3) Conversely, Germany are playing about as well as they can. Only one way to go from there, etc

4) Only time Jerry went behind so far he struggled to formulate a meaningful response.

5) Spain (at least in theory) have the pace & movement to exploit the lack of the same in the German centre-halves
