What's the difference between the following two sentences regarding the meaning?

EBay, Already Working With Yahoo, Strikes an Ad Deal With Google
EBay, Already Working With Yahoo, Made an Ad Deal With Google
 
Thanks:-)

No difference, really.

Just perhaps, strikes gives one more of the idea that they've finally agreed to it and signed it.

Thanks:-) I think to know the two sayings appears more impoiratnt than knowing their differences.
