Monday, June 30, 2008

it's the end of euro 2008 a few minutes ago crowning Spain as the champion! Fernando Torres-the man of the match secured Spain the trophy as he scored a goal in the 33rd minute. Torres' goal crushed Germany's hope to win trophy. Captain Iker Casillas also did a vey good job in defending their team. He acted calmly and managed to save all attacks from Germany. this victory also ended Spain's 44-year wait of winning a major tournament with 100% wins since their first game against Russia until their final against Germany.

euro 2008 saw a lot of suprises as a lot of favourite teams like Netherland, Portugal, and France did not managed to go far with luck not on their side, on the other hand, underdogs like Turkey and Russia shows great games and potentials. it's been an exiciting season with a spectacular ending with Spain going home with the trophy they trully deserved.

it's interesting that a friend of mine would never agree with me on football. during EPL she assured me that Chelsea's gonna win. instead, Manchaster United won! again. Champion's League. she said, now, Chelsea's gonna win. instead, Manchaster United when home with the trophy. now. she said Germany's surely gonna win. I disagree and hey, zophor, "look who won!"
