To match Feature SOCCER-SWEDEN/SPAIN
Henok Goitom, a forward with Spanish soccer club Almeria, smiles at the Kvarnbacka soccer pitch near Stockholm June 23, 2011. Goitom, who was born in Stockholm of Eritrean extraction, has played in Spain for the last six years and appreciates how Spanish soccer has transformed itself, ending years of under-achievement with victories in the World Cup, the European Championship, the Champions League and last weekend's European Under-21 championship. All this success has come through a golden crop of players employing their short-passing "tiki-taka" style, which reached stunning heights at club level when Barcelona destroyed Manchester United in last month's Champions League final to become European champions for the third time in six seasons.
