Soccer has been getting pub forever here man. This is not a new occurence. I remember when I was 10 years and old and hearing in 5 years it will be America's sport. Pele was the big dog then. Well, a few decades have passed since then and I'm still waiting. soccer was big in the 60s yes with the Cosmos... with Pele, Beckenbauer, etc. Though to say soccer has been getting publicity since then is a pretty bold statement. Up until 2 or 3 years ago, you would NEVER see soccer on ESPN or Sportscenter or anything like that.

I rooted for Spain since the beginning and I'm glad they won. Martinez you must be over the moon. Your underacheiving nation has won something for once! We're all still waiting for England to do the same now ROFL.
Torres' goal was sick btw. The finish was incredible and the strength to fight off Lahm (who was shite as usual) was also amazing. I'm surprised the Germans were so poor though. Could've easily been 3 or 4.

All this talk about football vs American football btw is stupid. They're two completely different sports that one needn't bother comparing. In my opinion football is more popular worldwide and it's the global game. That's the problem with American Football, it's only in America really.
