Torres Clinches Euro 2008 For Spain

Despite starting off on the back foot and almost conceding a penalty, La Furia Roja were able to steady themselves and carve out a first half lead which was very seldom threatened as they dominated the match and delighted their fans in equal measure. It was a merited tournament win for Spain - their first since 1964 - and an opportunity lost for a German side that wanted for a final ball and defensive stability.
