SPAIN HAS WON THE EURO 2008!
woohooo.. finally.... one of the teams that i support has finally won a trophy tis year.... spain has always underperformed.. and they have finally lived up to expectations...ppl had always expect so much from them but end up having heartache as they get knocked out and knocked out tournament after tournamet... usually at quater finals... so i doubt ppl would expect them to get even as far as to the semi-final at the start of the tournament...
but if germany had won, i wouldnt really mind either... they have gotten my support ever since 06...coz germany plays the kind of attractive football that is very appealing... they play tough, they play harsh, but they provides flicks and passes that amazes everyone.. and in the end, they normally gets the job done... whether they have play well or not...and i muz say germany has jurgen klinsmann and joachim lowe to thank for as they finally change the type of football that they played under rudi voller.... they juz got more and more defensive-minded after winning the euro 96... i watched them play in world cup 98 and it has only one word to describe it, " boring"....and they slowly faded away from the tag of "destroyers" and "tournament favourites" as they near the 21st century...with rudi voller still in charged... voller still managed to carve out rsults for the germans as they kept the reputation of getting the results that mind, even if they werent playing well, but they werent convincing... often winning by a 1-goal margin..and they had to thank oliver kahn for much of it as he maintained the scoreline for alot of matches...but as he grew old, their defence leak in more and more goals and they finally cracked in the euro 04, with voller being fired as a result... as they didnt win a single match in the group stage... and in came klinsmann who conjured magic for the germans..and change almost everything, and the rest, u should noe..
i had expected the germans or the dutch to win this at the start, but little did i noe, the team tt i supported won it...lol... but when i expect the spanish to go far, they fall flat...
