Euro '08 Best Major Tournament in 22 Years?

....so says Grant Wahl of Sports Illustrated.

I tend to agree, though I would argue the '98 and '06 World Cups carried as much intrigue and excitement as this Euro 2008, with perhaps not as much attacking flair. Wahl (a great U.S. soccer writer) argues that tis '08 tournament brings a refreshing return to attacking football and dramatic endings that are so often absent from widely-viewed (and thus widely scrutinized) major soccer events. With every match being televised on cable in the U.S. for the first time ever during the European Championships, scores of curious and skeptical American soccer viewers are being treated to some legitimately compelling sports spectacle, something that will only help grow the game's popularity in America.
