Congratulations to Spain...
But Euro champions seldom retain the title twice consecutively. Spain is a good team, but not really tough and did not really meet with big challenge on the road to the champions...so I think they may not have good results in the coming World Cup...作者: woooot 時間: 2008-7-26 11:57 AM
who has even retained the title consecutively (not too sure if you meant Euro and world or back to back Euro wins) ? but if you mean euros and world cup, only the french team did it, winning the world cup 1st , then the next Euro.
but don't really understand why compare Spain to Greece. Spain has always been a traditional strong team with technically gifted players even but Greece won their Euro more on the tactical play of their coach, winning with a closely knitted team based on defensive play. Spain has been on the attacking side and just known for choking at major competitions. this time , they beat Italy(06 world cup champions with bad form coming into the competition?) and Germany on the way, isn't that enough? but who would have expected Italy to have such a form anyway. you would also have hoped they would meet Holland on the way but they lost to a superb Russia, right?
anyway, it's always different on the world cup platform with the strong South American teams competing. it all boils down to form and luck.作者: Fung2004 時間: 2008-7-27 03:38 AM
