I'm from U.S.A. but man, I love watching the Euro cup games each day at promptly 11:00 A.M. and 1:00 P.M. on ESPN. Just finished watching the Italy/Croatia game (tied 1-1). Who do you think's gonna win?

My bets on France; if not, Germany.

France won't win it. Obviously, as an English person, I want England to win, but I know that's not gonna happen. I think we did well to hold France to a draw. My bets on Spain or Germany. Although I can see Germany making a huge slip up in the knock out stages which will cost em the tournament, which is what they usually do. Obviously from the world cup with Spain and holland being finalists they were the favourites from the beginning, but holland are really messing up and haven't picked up a single point. Italy have been playing well too, I think they might do well this time around.
But anyway, COME ON ENGLAND!!!
Ireland v Spain is just starting :) my bets on Spain 3-1

England/Scotland/Whales/N.Ireland would be killer if they played together as the UK team. Just a side comment.

England, on paper, are a great side. However, they don't seem to play well as a team. Scotland don't have anyone good enough to add to a uk side, and neither do Ireland. I can only see bale from Wales being good enough to get on the England squad, and the rest would still be an England squad with the addition of gareth bale.

I meant the way Germany plays... they are not spectacular at all, everything is prepared and exactly by the book. Makes for a bad show but ensures lots of wins... So yeah, in terms of watching a good game, Germany plays "bad" but it works and they win.


Does this make any sense?

Seriously... besides spain germany plays the most modern style of soccer !!!!

You can have a Brazilian manager managing England. It's stupid. We just recently got rid of Capello who was Italian. If fergie was gonna manage England, he would, but it's incredibly unlikely that he is ever gonna leave Manchester united until he retires.

Definetley Germany.

That almost same team was in Final for world champs two years back and that almost same team has grown together more. Only Spain could stand up for this team but I consider the might and glory of Spain fading.

Soccer is a sport where two teams kick the ball for 90 minutes and in the end Germany wins.

Spain are still incredible, they won the world cup and never scored more than 1 goal in a single match throughout the whole knockout stages of the tournament. Just because they aren't racking in the goals doesn't mean they aren't the best.
Plus, germany only made it to the semi-final of the world cup and were knocked out by holland, who don't seem to be performing this time around. I still see an underdog team like Denmark or Croatia doing amazing this time

They never look like they're working haha. They just slow the game right down and no other team can cope with it. Then they switch pace, score a goal and then slow down again and then it's like they're having a kick about in the park for the rest of the game lmao

These games are great to watch! Even as a soccer/football player sometimes I get bored watching soccer XD, however these games are very upbeat and good teams.

And Germany has the best chance to win.

But i also like Germany and i would like to see both in the finals!

If you want to see something special just keep an eye over Iniesta, probably the best player of this Eurocup.

You know you're going to win if you're the better team in soccer.
