In Spain's Confederations Cup Match against New Zealand on Sunday in South Africa, it took Fernando Torres a mere 17 minutes to complete a hat-trick. I realize that Spain is the number one in the FIFA World Rankings while New Zealand is 82nd, but that should take nothing away from his tremendous game. The way Torres scored the goals showed how complete of a striker he is - his goals came from a curling effort at the edge of the box, a cool touch low and away from the diving goalkeeper, and a strong header into the corner.
Oh, and Spain won 5-0.

The United States plays defending World Cup champions Italy tomorrow in a Group B game in the Confederations Cup. The game airs on ESPN at 2:25pm EST. Let's just hope the red cards stay in the ref's pocket this time.
