Spain beats Germany to win Euro 2008
06-30-2008Spain have clinched the Euro 2008 title with a deserved 1-nil victory over Germany at the Ernst-Happel Stadium in Vienna.
Due to an injury to the tournament's top scorer David Villa, Spain played with 5 across the midfield and dominated the match with their fluent passing.
Moments after hitting the post with a header, lone striker Fernando Torres scored the game's only goal in the 33rd minute, outpacing Philip Lahm and clipping the ball over German keeper Jens Lehmann.
A lacklustre German side rarely threatened and only had four attempts at goal to Spain's 13. It's Spain's second European Championship win and their first major title for 44 years.
