Spain 3 - Italy 2

So, Spain v Italy in Euro 2008 took place last night and Spain won on nerve-wracking penalty shoot out. It is the first time in 88 years Spain have beaten Italy in an international football game.

Now, I live a bit out of the city centre so I hate to think what it was like in the centre but when that last goal went in, the place erupted, car horns beeping, firewor, our block of flats just went mad, you could hear everyone from all over the block just cheering and yelling. People just poured out of their houses and celebrated, very spontaneous and enthusiastic. It is great to see it, everyone was just so in the party spirit. If Spain make it to the final I will be first in the bar to soak up the atmosphere I think!

¡VAMOS ESPAÑA!
