I wonder what will happen in the future. Spain is so dominant like no other generation of a national football team has been in history.

Damn Holland invented total football but exported it to Span and Barcelona in the 80's and now it's transformed into tiki-taka in the Spanish national team and all of a sudden they're invincible. Meanwhile Holland is gone back to England loser style football (or are they trying a poor man's Germany, I don't know). Damn England and Holland, why can't you be good?

What should the other teams do? Try to counter it like Portugal and Italy tried by hard pressing, or by extreme defense that most teams do, or should you just rely on your own style like Germany?`Or should you try to copy tiki-taka? Will we see a top nation try to copy tiki-taka?

That's because their are not that many great players in the Dutch team anymore.

I just realized it now. Torres was the the top scorer of the Euro :S. How was that possible. Europe has some weak strikers

He tied with a lot of goal scorers with 3 goals, but the ruling criteria in these cases is total minutes played in the competition. In that aspect, Torres had much less minutes than the likes of Dzagoev, Balotelli, Ronaldo, etc, which also had 3 goals.

No the Assist gave him the advantange over most of the other guys and the minutes gave him the advantage over Gomez.

He trully did, but to me the Spanish revelation was Jordi Alba. He was superb during the whole cup.
