"Something absolutely thrilling is happening in Euro 2008. Think about it: In the span of five days the Dutch outscored the two participants in the 2006 World Cup final by the absurd margin of 7-1. Seven to one! Four years after Greece rode cynical, negative soccer all the way to the European championship, this majestic Holland team is leading a parade of entertaining teams (including Portugal, Spain and Croatia) on a mission of sorts: to show that attacking soccer can be rewarded after all."
