Italy shouldn't even be in the finals, embarrassing performance.

This was the good Spain tonight.
If they would go for the jugular like this all the time they would not get the "boring" taunts. Not surprised that this will likely be the game with their least possession and yet they scored 3 and looked at their best.
Can't fault this Italian team, they were overmatched on paper an it was a shock that they were even in the finals since nobody thought they had the skill this year.
Congratulations Spain, you deserved this tournament.

How good is Spain they can be on cruise control the whole tournament and still make the final? Then when they bother showing up they slaughter the Italians. Much deserved champions of Europe

In part because most of Germany forgot to show up.
In part because Pirlo and buffon were outstanding.
In part because Italy is a good team.
Italy deserved to beat Germany in the semis.

I think Spain could've made Germany look this foolish as well. These guys are just that good.

Torres finishes top scorer with 3 goals and 1 assist (tied with Gomez but he played less minutes)

Don't the teams actually shake hands or congratulate each other?

How dare he be mad the lost, he probably went and cried in the room and then came back out.
Italy deserved to be in the final, but ran out of gas. Just didn't have the legs to chase Spain today, and then two injuries didn't help.
Had Di Natale been able to finish one of his chances at the start of the 2nd half it may have been a different game. He didn't finish, Motta blew his hamstring, and then it was game over as Italy was just holding on for dear life.
