Spain has performed a very good play in this tournament , the successful result lays on playing as a group with quality and passion.

Moreover, I think that all the country deserves this celebration, since today never will be the same for this magic team.

Congratulation Spain กกกกก

Good to hear the comments from the original poster - shame some bitter Mancs still can't resist having a whinge.

Torres has cemented his status as the world's best striker, just like Ronaldo is the world's best winger, or Messi the world's best attacking midfielder. There is no shame in admitting that.

Ok, I admit Spain were a better side and deserved to win. ..BBUT on the other hand, IF "Spain is such a good team and Germany is such a bad team", as some of you say,...there remains a few observations for you to ponder :-- And to emphasize my point of argument, I will repeat the above statement again and again:
IF "Spain is such a good team and Germany is such a bad team"---
(a) How come the goal score does NOT reflect that. Spain defeated Germany by the "slimmest" margin you can have, namely, 1:0.

IF "Spain is such a good team and Germany is such a bad team"---
(b) HOW COME they were INCAPABLE of defeating the Germans by a large margin of goals, say, 5:0 or 6:0. But they DIDN'T, or should I rather say: they COULDN'T.
Don't give me such excuses as: --many more goals COULD HAVE BEEN scored by the spaniards, because of many narrow or unlucky misses by Spain. But such "misses" only points to their failure because --
"a way better team than Germany"-- (--as you are asserting Spain to be) would play so superbly better than Germany, that all those missing goals would NOT have occured, but would have been so perfectly executed that they would have translated into MORE actual goals. But the FACT IS : THEY DIDN'T EXECUTE SO PERFECTLY, did they??--- for which only spanish players' deficiencies could be blamed. ...Tell me also, if the German goal-keeper is so bad, WHY THE SPANIARDS WERE NOT ABLE TO GET MORE THAN JUST ONE GOAL SLIP PAST HIM. Your excuses like, that's pure "German luck" etc. is an invalid argument, and I will show you why-- Let's go back again to that point of view you are supporting :-- namely :
"Spain is so much better than Germany" (remember, this what are supporting about)
IF THAT WERE THE CASE :--most shots directed toward the goal by a spanish player WOULD HAVE been so "perfectly executed" (a) that the German goal-keeper would have missed them, at least, more than one time. but HE DIDN'T, did he??--- for which only spanish players' deficiencies are to be blamed ;

IF Spain is so much better than Germany" --every (or most) shot directed toward the goal by a spanish player WOULD HAVE been so "perfectly executed" that (b) that no German player would be able to stop it most of the times; but MOST OF THE TIMES GERMANS DID STOP the spaniards' shots at the goal, except ONLY ONCE. This deficiency on NOT being able to break through the German defense MOST of the times could only fall on the shoulders of the spanish players ;

IF Spain is so much better than Germany" --most shots directed toward the goal by a spanish player WOULD HAVE been so "perfectly executed" that (c) the ball would NOT (1) fly over the goal or fly past the goal-posts, or (2) just hit this goal-post or that goal-post or the top horizonal bar etc., but enter DIRECTLY into the goal, but THEY DIDN'T, did they??--which can only point to the deficiency of the spanish players,---like it not. My point is that : :If "Spain is a way better team than Germany" then the talk about they COULD HAVE or WOULD HAVE scored more goals would NOT EVEN ARISE, WOULD IT??--See my point? Indeed, a far superior team does not come out with a result, as Spain have, where the question of COULD HAVE or WOULD HAVE even occur. ..AS THE FACT STANDS :-- As far as the "goal-scoring performance of Spain" over Germany is concerned, a win of a slim margin, such as 1:0, is hardly much of a performance.

By the way : If you really want to see a real poor team by the Spanish standard, look at Russia, who were defeated by Spain TWICE by a larger margin of goals, 4:1, and 3:0. How does 1:0 compares to that??

Perhaps if Villa or Raul had been playing upfront with Torress it may have been 6-0 and reflected Spanish superiority. Ive always found watching LaLiga produces the best technical football, not just from Barcelona or Real Madrid but from teams like Villareal.

The scoreline did not reflect the dominance. Spain could have won by 5. I am so proud of Spain for playing FOOTBALL and proving that you don't have to pick the biggest and strongest to achieve success. Football is about guile, skill and imagination and England need to realise this when selecting its future stars. Brazil are another nation who need to remember the value of ball playing midfielders and ditch this idea of playing what are in essence centre backs in midfield. This makes up for Argentina, who were by far the best team at the 2006 world cup not winning the trophy. Joga Bonito and I offer my sincere gratiude to Spain for proving this is the ideal way to play.
