Here's a look at how the leading actors of Euro 2008 are now faring:Wed, 31 Dec 2008 16:12:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/grant_wahl/12/30/moment.of.the.year/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/grant_wahl/12/30/moment.of.the.year/index.htmlSpain's 1-0 win over Germany in the Euro 2008 final in June gave the Spaniards their first European championship since 1964 (and second major trophy in their country's history).Tue, 30 Dec 2008 18:41:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/09/10/dutch.soccer/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/09/10/dutch.soccer/index.htmlHolland gave everything to Euro 2008. The team played dazzling soccer against France and world champion Italy. Pundits swooned over an updated version of total football and praised the individual skills of Wesley Sneijder, Rafael van der Vaart & Co.Wed, 10 Sep 2008 16:50:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/08/27/spain.prev/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/world_soccer/08/27/spain.prev/index.htmlThe warm glow of the 2008 European Championship continued to spread across Spain well into the summer.

And when the screaming headlines and astronomical figures began once again to be splashed across the covers of the country's newspapers, there was something different about it.Mon, 01 Sep 2008 22:29:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/the_limey/07/25/soccernomics2/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/the_limey/07/25/soccernomics2/index.htmlIt's been a slow summer in the Premier League, with no England in Euro 2008 and a transfer market that has been moving slower than 92-year-old Great Uncle Limey after several hours at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Probably something to do with the tightening finances in the football world and the soccernomics issues we wrote about last time around.Fri, 25 Jul 2008 16:37:00 EDThttp://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1819276,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicshttp://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1819276,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicsA free-flowing attacking game prevailed and made European champions out of the continent's perennial underachievers Tue, 01 Jul 2008 01:00:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/grant_wahl/06/27/euro.final/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/grant_wahl/06/27/euro.final/index.htmlLet's count the reasons why Germany has no business beating Spain for the Euro 2008 championship on Sunday (ABC, 2:45 p.m. ET):Fri, 27 Jun 2008 16:44:00 EDThttp://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1818420,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicshttp://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,1818420,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topicsAs Turkey and Russia's glorious run comes to an end, the world prepares for a Germany vs. Spain finalFri, 27 Jun 2008 12:00:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/gabriele_marcotti/06/26/euro/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/gabriele_marcotti/06/26/euro/index.htmlVIENNA, Austria -- OK, so I've tried my best.

Or that Andrei Arshavin is the second coming of Zinedine Zidane.Thu, 26 Jun 2008 17:21:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/06/26/storm.euro2008/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/06/26/storm.euro2008/index.html#cnnSTCTextThousands of football fans fled for safety and millions of TV viewers were left disappointed Wednesday night as an electrical storm in Vienna disrupted coverage of the first of the Euro 2008 semifinals.Thu, 26 Jun 2008 13:52:00 EDT
