Hmmm I wouldn't say they got owned by the USA. They just capitalized on two Spanish mistakes. And then the Americans played great defense to hold them for the victory. The US was playing on a very high note (they also held a 2-0 lead over the infamous Brazilians in the final), and they caught the Spaniards on a bad night.
As for the Euro, Spain dominated Germany in terms of ball possession and chances created. Germany only had one really good shot at goal in which Ballack missed wide. If you watch the game again it's easy to see that the Germans were outclassed.
