David Villa showed why he is beloved in Valencia as he kicked off his Euro 2008 campaign with a nifty hat-trick against a clearly overpowered Russian team. Spain's technical prowess was on display as their nimble pass-and-move game (tiki-taka) exploited every inch of space the Russians gave them.

Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic ended his international goal drought in style with a hammer-blow strike off a give-and-go with veteran Henrik Larsson. The reigning champs Greece started their title defense inauspiciously as their cynical play could not stem the Swedish tide.
