Holland didn’t have a Chance!!
Well, that’s nice. What happens to the actual trophy? Does it get left at the Shrine to Our Lady? Or, does the winning team take the trophy home and leaves a note, or an offering?
I second your comment — if that was a sincere prayer on the part of the head of the Spanish delegation, Holland didn’t have a chance.
I would not have believed this of Spain. I hven’t been there lately, but i feared that under Zapatero, it had become anti-Catholic to the bone. This is a pleasant piece of news. thank you
