A hamstring problem in his right leg, suffered in the semifinal against Russia, David Villa be prevented in the final of Euro 2008. And although the Spaniard had shared with Fernando Torres in front earlier stakes, the absence of gauge, Red top scorer, led to Luis Aragones had to modify their plans for the final and tactical awareness, from the duo attacker entry into the midfield of Cesc Fabregas. The child was left alone up, but it took just over half an hour to fulfill its mission .

Fernando Torres took a pass from Xavi, pie Lahm and Lehmann and his class to chop the ball over the veteran German goalkeeper. Minutes earlier he had already had, but his header was met with the wood. The value of that goal up to heaven of old Vienna Prater refused a title since 1964 and a curse for the national team that seemed to have no ceiling after the constant and unprecedented high-profile failures. Since that day, fuenlabreño striker joined the collective imagination. Its so much that won a title, began a path of rose wine that still lingers in the selection.

After that, much water has passed under the bridges. With respect to the Red, has been growing, harvesting the World Cup against the Netherlands and erected, with a pattern of play and a special seal on one of the football powers of the moment. Torres was also in South Africa, somewhat diminished , and this time had to watch as Iniesta, who first went to hug him when he scored his goal against Germany, scoring the goal that, again by the minimum, gave us the title for excellence level selections. At the end Fernando was a backup, but ended up going into the extension by Villa. However, the absence of a few seconds, injure.

Thus began a kind of ordeal that Torres must end soon. His transfer to Chelsea billionaire has caused many headaches . Not for the jump to one of the indisputable Premier League candidates, but because their relationship to the goal, why he carried out his signing Abramovic, has been hampered in recent months. So much so that their last calls with Del Bosque have been punctuated by those who believe that Roberto Soldado, to give just one example, is in better shape than the child.

Del Bosque has been deaf to those who would leave off the list and although Torres in the match against Liechtenstein last left him in the stands, understood as a necessary wake-up call, he called again for duels qualifiers the next Euro. Interestingly, his inclusion comes at the time the striker has started scoring goals for Chelsea, where one side has stopped the drought and has begun to rediscover with that character that captured all the accolades possible June 26 2008. Today, against the Czech Republic, looks back to focus on Fernando, who will hold except surprise. Spain is not played anything but the child himself, back to being the hero.
