Germany and Spain. Yes, 2 heavyweights are meeting in the final after all. With many upsets along the way, like Czech Republic crashing out in the group stage, Italy and France crushed by the Dutch, defending champions Greece losing all 3 group games, mighty Holland booted by a youthful Russian team, Turkey staging 3 stunning fightbacks in a row before succumbing to a late Germany goal themself, the final might have been contested by 2 'small' teams. But well, here we all, a final featuring 2 traditional powerhouse teams.

And oh yes, speaking of the Russia Spain match, Russia put up a decent fight in the 1st half, before Spain bulldozed them with 3 goals. Finally, a great match that i watched, after the bore Italy-Spain match and the disrupted Germany-Turkey match. On to the finale!!!
