Olé Olé Spain
Hiya
Just in case you don't know (and I'm sure you do), Spain has just won the European Cup final and is the European football champion. The Spanish team goes down in history for winning the cup for the first time in 44 years apparently.
The match was won in the first half with a glorious goal from Torres (El Niño). No more goals were scored or needed and Spain was very clearly the superior team.
Interesting to see such illustrious spectators as the King of Spain, the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, the Spanish President Zapatero and the likes of Fernando Alonso and Plácido Domingo to name just a few.
Congratulations Spain, Iker Casillas, El Niño Torres, Luis Aragonés and the rest of the team.
