ok I take the "butcher boys" back Some Bundesliga heroes in that team ...
Holland showed not all. For such a skilled team they did not play as good as they could.
Spain had just 1 and a half good game – that was enough to win the title.
The Eurocup 2012 will be a tough one.

I thinks Spain will defend Euro title successfully, Even the World Champions Title.

Spain were rightful winners, not that I am biased , it's a pity Holland didn't play the football we have seen them play but then again maybe that would just have given Spain too much of a chance. I heard people calling Holland butcher boys and if you see how Iniesta feet are after all the stamping you can't argue( of course Spain did dish out some as well).
I watched the match in a Dutch owned beach Bar on the South Coast of Spain and it was one of those moments you will always remember for the rest of your life. And what most people didn't see at the time was that Iniesta dedicated the goal to Dani Jarque (Espanyol) who dropped dead in a pre-season tournament in 2009, while Ramos & Navas dedicated the triumph to Antonio Puerta (Sevilla) who also passed away on the pitch in 2007.
Spain are class and the players dedicating the most important moment in their sporting life to fallen colleagues only emphasis what a class team they are.
Viva España!
Spain was clearly the best team over the last to years and so they really deserved the win.
A pitty that Torres wasnt in good shape due to injurys but spain was lucky that Iniesta came back just in time. They just did not shoot enough goals for my taste.
