Sports - Football(Soccer) Euro 2008

Sports can be icky at times especially when one sees those injuries but people still love sport. It can take us away from the difficult moments of our life. Hence there will be some news about sports on this blog.

Today's news is about the Euro 2008 football final which was played this morning. Spain defeated Germany 1-0. The goal was scored by Fernando Torres in the first half. This is quite an exciting and close match as Germany had some chances of equalizing. The goal scored was not spectacular but it was good enough for Spain to capture the title for only the second time since 1964.
