Spain Vs Germany

[Tevez]

Aragones is a cnut but he's a Tactical Genius. One of the Pro's of having a home grown manager.

Best team won on the night, and overall Spain were much much better than Germany throughout the tourny. Suprised at the majority of German fans on here tbh.

Anyone else notice Sergio Ramos' Antonio Puerta t-shirt? I want to know what it said on it, I'm curious.

I'm pretty sure it said "SIEMPRE CON NOSOTROS" ("With us forever")--classy gesture, and it wasn't the only memorial gesture by the Spanish. I noticed that one of the back-up keepers was wearing a kick-ass old school Spanish keeper kit, but I just found out why:

Spain's third-choice goalkeeper Andres Palop wore the shirt of his historic predecessor Luis Maria Arconada. It was a mistake by Arconada against Michel Platini's France that played a part in Spain's defeat in the final of Euro 1984.

Palop would then hug Platini himself - now UEFA president - in another snapshot for the album of an unforgettable night.

Completely agree, the germans were very poor based on that performance I fail to see how they even managed to make the final! Even though I backed The Dutch to win Euro08, Spain were the only team that was consistant throughout the whole tournament and deserved to win the trophy.

I saw that, couldn't read what it said though. I thought it was a nice tribute by Ramos.

Spain thoroughly deserved their win. They've got a young team which is likely to improve in the future so providing they qualify, I think they'll do well at the World Cup.
