yay post 100th wow it took 7 months just 2 reach that thread milestones anyway i predict spain will defend the cup again...tiki taka rulz

hehe ... for me, tiki-taka will lose to 4-2-3-1 formation, which suits german style of play (2 defensive midfilder with counter attack from both flanks) ..

so my prediction would be:

::QUARTER FINAL::
(25) 1A(poland) vs 2B(germany) -- GER won
(26) 1B(holland) vs 2A(czech) -- HOL won
(27) 1C(spain) vs 2D(france) -- SPA won
(28) 1D(sweden) vs 2C (italy) -- ITA won

::SEMI-FINAL::
(29) 25(germany) vs 27(spain) -- GER won (tiki-taka will lose..)
(30) 26(holland) vs 28(italy) -- ITA won

::FINAL::
GER(1) vs ITA(1) - ITA won penalty

hehehe .. forza italia!

p/s: sorry to england fans as england wud sukc without rooney ...they will not go thru

but that is just my prediction .. whats urs?

That's a very straight prediction and the most obvious but I guess these teams will mesh up the obvious...

Group A - Greece

solid at the back, maybe they can qualify with one win and a draw

Group B - Denmark

qualifying group champion, have beaten Oranje b4 and nobody give a d*** about them at all

Group C - Ireland

no pressure at all, very good team spirit, they believe they can defeat anyone, Trap knows Italy very well

Group D - Sweden/Ukraine

If one of them can get one good result against the famous 2...

me too me too me too want to predict

group A :: russia & poland
- actually a very tight group, each team hav almost same chance to progress

group B :: germany & netherlands
- denmark the dark horse.. yes, denmark.. not portugal? no, coz u keep cr7 quiet, they r done

group C :: spain & croatia
- obviously shud b spain & italy but italy's current form make me think twice

group D :: france & sweden
- england unpredictable.. the co-host? hmm..

q-final ::
russia vs netherlands
spain vs sweden
germany vs poland <-- uuhhh nice derby
france vs croatia

s-final ::
netherlands vs spain <-- slurrrppp
germany vs france

final ::
netherlands vs germany <-- i hate this..!! dont know to support which one...

I am cheering for Germany for this Euro, but from the previous matches, i can see that Russia is a very dark dark horse, who knows maybe they will advance to the final..haha

another emotional game for klose and podolski..hahahaha

Aku rasa sangat sedih, Turkey x qualify for this Euro. Almost.....WC 02 dapat no 3, euro 08 layak ke semi, tetapi peningkatan macam volatile jugak, hmmm......

Harap2 croatia yg kalahkan turkey kat play off dapat pergi jauh...

QUARTERFINALS
Russia 1 - 0 Germany
Netherlands 3 - 2 Czech Republic
Spain 3 - 0 Sweden
France 0 - 1 Croatia

SEMIFINALS
Russia 2 - 1 Netherlands
Spain 1 - 0 Croatia

FINAL
Russia 1 - 0 Spain


Russia FTW

btw where to find the squad numbers for all euro teams? thanks in advance

for me...Spain to the final!!!

I'm rooting for France. You can see the whole squad is in high spirit and harmony during friendlies. Respect each other, no more rebel this time. All is forgiven. Even Mexes their most experienced defender also doesn't sulking when he isn't on the team sheet. Superstar like Menez, Giroud, Ribery, Nasri, Benzema also not selfish and mixing well with other player.

I guess you're right. I got sneaky feeling the French will make it to Semi Final for this Euro. Totally different squad spirit from previous WC.

I'm rooting for Spain.

The squad seems to be weaker without Puyol and Villa.

Hopefully Torres able to regain his form on time.
