Viva Espana!

I shall dedicate my first post of July and first 2010 World Cup related post to Spain!

When it comes to soccer, i only watch Euro Cup and World Cup.
And ever since 2002, i've been a small fan of Spain.
Initially, it was Iker Casillas who caught my eyes.
But gradually, i really like how the team play - Slow, steady and fair :)

They've come a long way from being underachievers to clinching the Euro Cup and now finally, they are in the finals of World Cup.

Last week, i saw this jacket during lunch and was tempted to buy it.
My colleague asked: What if they lose?
And another one even worse: Why not you buy after the finals, maybe it'll be cheaper after they lost? -.- it's as good as saying they confirm won't win!
Seriously, i don't care. If they fought hard and lose, it's really ok.

And I'm not so crazy as to buy it purely cos of the team.
Besides the fact that this is Spain, I like the crest and color combination.
Wanted to buy it a few years back but was too poor as a student back then.

So tonight is the night.
Just like a lot of fans out there, i really hope they'll lift the trophy tonight.
It'll really be nice to see them do the double triumph of winning the Euro Cup and World Cup.

Viva Espana! :)
