Throughout the tournament, Spain were tagged of being ‘boring’ but they silenced the critics as they defeated Italy 4-0 in the final, which was the biggest victory margin in any World Cup or European championship decider. The Spaniards created history as they became the European Champions for the second time in a row, a feat that has never been achieved before. The Italians looked clueless in the final and couldn’t match with the pace of their opponents. There were speculations ahead of the tournament whether Ukraine and Poland would be able to successfully organize the tournament, but it was indeed a very successful tournament, one of the best the football fraternity has ever seen. Spain create history, wins Euro 2012.
