Spain Reign Victorious: Euro 2012


For the first time in history, Spain are the 1st team to retain their European title after they won Euro 2012 after a 4-0 trouncing of Italy, the goals coming from David Silva, Jordi Alba, Fernando Torres and Juan Mata... Yes Juan Mata!! Spain are also the 1st team to win 3 consecutive championships: Euro 2008, World cup 2010 and Euro 2012.

It was an amazing game. The 1st goal really got the game going after Cesc Fabregas set up a precise cross which finds Silva's head on the end. Spain 1-0

2nd goal. Jordi Alba run into a large amount of Spain and buries his shot.

Half Time

3rd goal. Fernando Torres comes on as substitution for Fabregas and runs pass his opponents to beat Buffon the Italian keeper. Beautiful shot.

After being subbed in with 4 minutes left in regular time for Iniesta, Torres unselfishly sets up a chance for Juan Mata. He buries it. In his first appearance of the entire competition Juan Mata scores!!!!! JUAN!!!

With all this, it would be remiss of me to not mention the ENTIRE Spanish team! You go guys!! Special thanks also to St. Iker Casillas for an AMAZING tournament and the vital saves through out the tournament and especially tonight!!!!


SPAIN WINS 4-0!!!!!! VIVA ESPANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Euros concludes until 4yrs time and I couldn't have written a better ending.

Thanks Poland and Ukraine. I had a blast!!!!

Till next time!
