Taking the Euro by storm
Seven goals by Real Madrid players are the most by any team in the competition
Real Madrid players performing in the Euros for their National teams as well
Seven goals scored between Van Nistelrooy, Sneijder, Robben, Pepe, and De la Red in Euro 2008 have made Real Madrid the highest scoring team in the competition. Casillas meanwhile has conceded the fewest goals
Real Madrid seven goals are two more than Germany’s Bayern Munich.
Pepe scored the first goal for Portugal against Turkey. In the next match, Van Nistelrooy and Sneijder scored for Holland against Italy.
Then Real Madrid players turned on the style when Robben scored a fantastic goal against France, beat coupet with a powerful shot to the near post. In the same match Sneijder also scored a magnificent goal at the end from outside the box. I have to recomment all Real Madrid fans to see that goal, it was a cracker. Coupet is by no means the worst keeper in the world but he had no chance of stopping that one.
Sneijder received the ball few meters away from the penalty box of Italy, his superb first touch took him away from any France player trying to close him down, and on the turn hit a monster strike which flew past Coupet into the top corner.
Van Nistelrooy scored against Russia, he scored from a header, free kick was taken by Sneijder with which Sneijder pin pointed Van Nistelrooy’s head to get a assist to his name, so all Real Madrid action there, but sadly that was not enough to keep Holland in the Euro’s and Russia knocked them out by scoring two late late goals in added extra time.
Ruben De La Red was the Seventh scorer of Real Madrid in the Euro’s, he score against Greece and gave Spain a vital lead with which Spain was able to win the match though it did not matter. Ruben scored from half way inside the penalty box. A powerfull missile which rattled the goal keeper’s ancestors and Greece’s Nikopolidis had no chance of saving the shot.
While Real Madrid attacking players are busy scoring goals in Euro’s, Iker Casillas (Real Madrid goalkeeper) has just conceded 1 goal in the last 3 matches and his two penalty shootout saves against Italy sent Spain into the Semi Finals , where he gave another fine peformance and Spain won 3-0 against Russia which sent Spain to the Finals of Euro 2008.
Now only Sergio Ramos and Casillas are holding the Real Madrid flag in the final, I hope Sergio Ramos scores a goal and Casillas keeps a clean sheet. HALA MADRID!!
