Vienna: Germany are the only team to have won three European Championships and a fourth is just a match away. Call it typical German efficiency or the hunger to succeed by a new generation; the present German team has the arsenal to sink the Spanish Armada.
The pictures of Germany celebrating a hard-fought win against Turkey in Basel are inspiration for a new generation of German footballers.
There has been a remarkable turnaround for a team which many called lackluster before the last World Cup.
Coach Joachim Loew was then assistant to the charismatic Juergan Klinsmann and he has built on the success of a third place in the World Cup. Now with a place in the final of Euro 2008, history beckons for Loew and his team.
"We are happy. It was our aim to reach the final. And actually now, there's no more pressure left. At the moment, we're only enjoying this and are looking forward to the final with a lot of fun and joy, because it is very special that we'll take part in it. And we're looking very much forward to Sunday," Loew said.
