Euro 2008 ( Final! )

" Expect Emotions " - Euro 2008's tag line

Yeaaah! Spain is in the final. I told you earlier that they do have the 'spark', and now all they need is to win the last match of the tournament, clinch the title and walk away with heads high up! They have came a long way and it's high time for them to step out from the 'shadow'. The big obstacle obstructing their way would be Germany- and they are not easy to beat.

Germany won Turkey in what-it's-said a thrilling match to watch. Turkey took the lead before the Germans scored an equalizer later. In the second half, it was Germany who stepped up and scored their second goal, booking them in the final. Turkey took the Germans' booking off by scoring their equalizer. Turkey is no doubt the king of the 'never-say-die' attitude! Close to 90 minutes, i thought it would remain level at 2-2 and that i'd to push my sleep time later, but the late struck by Philip Lahm, an incredible goal and the man-of-the-match, rebook the Germans spot at the final. To me, without a doubt, he played extremely well as he played both sides of the field and ended with a remarkable goal. Unfortunately, there was a slight technical problem and i didn't manage to watch both teams' second goal. Lucky, it was fixed during the final moment of the match. Cheers to the Germans!

Spain crushed Russia again with 3 goals more to them. It was 4-1 during the Group stage and in the Semi final, it was 3-0. The Russians were good, but the Spanish had the edge and even tried more shots- enjoy watching them play! The pics are from Daylife.com. Spain, enough said!

Just to watch the match and support their team!

The Spanish crowd cheered as they scored the third goal.

And so it is...

Another reason why Euro's great is that it opens to the world new songs too. And as for that, this is the Euro 2008 Official Swiss Song.



Eager and anxious, the time is near. wc08 is ready for the final, no matter who wins!
