Hard to pick out a "best player" of the competition too. |
Exactly why they won. Team effort. No Madrid/Barca arguing. They played as a team and even with Marchena in the back four, who as a valencia fan, I wonder how :p they did ok. Delighted for them. Would've been lovely to have had the dutch in the final as the best two teams from the tournament, but that couldn't have happened. Turkey would've given so much more than deutschland did though. |

| beautiful to see Sergio Ramos with an Antonio Puerta t-shirt on. From such a horrible start to the season, a brilliant ending for spanish football. |

It was a weird championship, on one side of the bracket we had the "best team of the tournament" Holland, who disappeared from the field and got beat by "best team of the tournament" Russia, who disappeared from the field and got beat by the actual best team, Spain.
On the other side of the bracket, the teams were just weaker IMO, Croatia was unconvincing to me, Turkey had willpower and luck and little else, we (Portugal) were the best from this side IMO but proved to have some pretty big holes in our organization as well, and Germany just went through on luck and ugly efficiency. Glad their luck ran out at the end and a good team won. |

Was just about to mention that also.
Very classy from Ramos seeing him honoring Puerta, I have to admit.
Alot more to life than football.
Respect. |

I rated both portugal and croatia along with the dutch & the spanish as the best 4 pre-tournament. You were shown up without a good left-back and lacking a striker with the quality that Pauleta had, that Nuno Gomes showed in Euro 2000 etc. |
