Spain's futbol craze

& as Spain reaches the Euro’08 soccer final lets take a look at fútbol (in Spanish).

It’s cult following has made it more like a religion in Spain. It's a passion for millions & millions of men, women and children of all ages. Spaniards can be seen bunched into local pubs to passionately cheer on their favorite soccer teams.

The country literally comes to a stand still (much like the cricket craze in India or Pakistan) whenever an important partido de fútbol (soccer game) is being played.

Soccer here being engaging passionate entertainment for the masses, the tickets are real easy on the pocket. A game being played by Real Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla or Atletic de Bilbao, will simply keep you on you feet.
