So Euro 2008 is over and my pick, the Spanish, won it with a fantastic goal from Liverpool ace, Fernando Torres.
A superb competition that I'm sad to see come to an end. I went to fanzone here in Vienna for the Netherlands v France game and the semi-final of Spain V Russia and the experience was nothing short of amazing. Especially the semi-final game, as myself and my girlfriend where stood with thousands of others, in the middle of an amazing thunderstorm. Still didn't spoil the atmosphere though.
We also took a quick trip down to the stadium for the semi-final to witness the atmosphere first hand. The Spanish fans have been in good voice every time we saw them. I don't think there's been a bit trouble anywhere.
This competition has been so much more enjoyable, without having the English side present and the gob-sh1te national media going over the top.
Lets hope South Africa put on a good show for the World Cup in 2 year's time.
p.s. And now back to some flying...
