EURO 2008 CHAMPION : SPAIN

VIVA ESPANA !!!

There you have it...After 44 long years of waiting, Spain have finally shaked off their under achievers tag to become the new European Champions!!! Being the only team in the tournament of Euro 2008 to be undefeated coming in the final against Germany, they edge the Germans 1-0 courtesy of the goal from Fernando Torres in the 33rd minute.

I must say I never regret waking up in the middle of the night to witness one of their most impressive display of the tournament. They simply outplayed and outclassed the Germans in every department. Their 7 shots on target against the 1 by the Germans simply tells it all. If not for ex-Gunners Lehmann's few superb saves, Spain would have won it by a bigger margin.
Few would have disagree with me that Spain rightly deserved to win the game and be crowned the Euro 2008 champion. Even Germany team manager and the German media laid praises on the Spain national team and their outgoing coach Aragones. It's simply a perfect parting give for the soon to be 70 years old...
BRAVO BRAVO to Fabregas and Co....surely they will need some time to sink in their reality and get back to their feet...hehe.
