For me the winners are likely to come from: France, Spain, Italy and Germany. I personally like to see Spain win, but there is a every possibility that there may be surprise winner as was the case with Greece.

Players looking forward to seeing / stars of the tournament: Karim Benzema, Samir Nasri, Frank Ribery, Hatem Ben Arfa, Torres, Fabregas

My monies are on Croatia. They look solid at the back and going forward they have some talent.

In every Euro/World Cup there is a group of death. Group C looks the toughest. Most likely France and Italy will qualify from this group

Do you honestly believe that most desis living in England support England in sport? Though I don't really like the Aussies that much because of their arrogance, during an Ashes series in England I find myself reluctantly supporting Australia. I think it's partly to do with how the media and esp. tabloids go bonkers here after every win. If they win one game they think they have conquered the whole world. The hype post Ashes win in 2005 was a stark reminder of that. It just puts me off supporting England.

Re: Euro 2008: Austria-Switzerland

May to mazaq kur raha tha! I know that.

I am surprised by their abscence in Euro - they even failed to qualify this time. Last time Rooney was being posed as Neo Pele' and they failed miserbly in 2004.

Re: Euro 2008: Austria-Switzerland

switzerland managed to keep czech at bay for most of the game…kudos to them…czech could’ve certainly done much better…they weren’t as impressive…

portugal’s game plan was great and their consistent attacks managed to get them the breakthrough…turkey got a couple of chance but they couldn’t capitalize on it…good game nonetheless…

1st game today is Austria VS Croatia - Croatia should win…
2nd game is Germany VS Poland - Germany should win :smiley:

can’t wait for tomorrow though…Netherlands VS Italy!! :k: :k:
