FINGER IN THE WOUND ...
A PURPOSE OF THE EURO CUP 2008
the ball foot. Why I'm not a fan called. And if I asked for a football player or the position within the field, would do nothing to declare my supine ignorance. I must confess that although I'm not addicted to football, if I see the finals where they decide who is the best in the world or, as in these days in the Euro cup. I do not only distraction but because I like to observe the reaction of people who gather in stadiums and in the streets to help up to their heroes in victory or mourn with them in defeat. The football show, for the fans and for any outside observer, a great catalyst of emotions and, More importantly, in an unequivocal sign of identity.
I do not know where his magic, this charming subterranean passions and moves with them, crowds, people from all walks of life united by their inspiration, in fact, the latter, who are unable or religions or political ideologies , or the suffering and pain of huge masses of people in various parts of the world. I do not know if it's the genius of a player, or the overall effort or error opponent's unprecedented what attracts the euphoria of victory and identifies one being a mass of followers.
Euro 2008, which is the topic at hand, has been a great show not only the English but for all countries involved in it. We all enjoyed the good work of our players, the evenings have brought us glory, the staging of the best football we've seen in years. So I salute from here to each and every one of the members of the English and, especially, his coach for having suffered with patience, misunderstanding of some and the diatribes of others in the knowledge that was doing well duties as has been demonstrated. But if he has shown good football selection, there is another aspect much more subtle and certainly much more important has become clear: the length and breadth of the country, in all towns and places of Spain, in every home, caught the spirit of national identity. All of a English felt over the flags and political ideologies, regionalism above to get tax perks and sinecures. The football has shown, contrary to what a bunch of clueless saying that Spain is a great and supportive, and that the only thing broken is the shortsighted interests of small sectors of the political spectrum, everyday less weight in the major national decisions.
