SPAIN CHAMPION!

Spain beat Germany 1-0 to win soccer's European Championship, ending a 44-year wait for a major international title.
El Niño Torres scored after 33 minutes at Ernst Happel stadium in Vienna, giving Spain its second European Championship. Its first came in 1964. Spain's Luis Aragones, at age 69 years and 338 days, becomes the oldest coach to lead a team to the title. Spain hadn't advanced beyond the quarterfinals since finishing as runner-up 24 years ago.

    Rafa,
    Well done - beating the Germans in a cup final, that's something us Brits haven't done for a long time (although I am old enough to remember it!).
