I totally agree. And for those who didn't watch, don't let the 4-0 score fool you, it was a tighter 2-0 game up until Motta's injury. That's when the wheels fell off, and understandably so. Hard enough to play Spain with 11, but with only 10, and not because of a booking, just a freak injury.
Unbelievable that Spain has won the last three huge trophies. Wild that Torres won the Golden Boot out of nowhere. 4-0 was also a record drubbing for a Euro final.
I enjoyed Torres' assist at the end more than his goal. Great teamwork.
It's also worth noting that Spain was incredibly classy in victory. It's nice to see that level of sportsmanship out of such a juggernaut program.
