Euro 2008 is history now. A crazy month full with high quality football matches, fantastic goals, tears and smiles. This was the Euro Tournament. From now on we should look forward to the WC qualifying campaigns.
I would like to congratulate Spain for the fantastic football they played and the spanish supporters for their superb attachement towards a team that finally proved themselves as one of the best in Europe.
What a nice final we had !

If Germany was favourite for bookies to win the Euro 2008, just before the tournaments started, we can’t say the same thing for Spain. Strong teams like Italy, France, Croatia, Portugal, Netherlands which had their chances, are at home already and they will watch the final from TV.
Spain always had a pretty good team but for some reason they failed to reach the final stages of such tournaments in the last quite a few years. They now have a very strong team, players from the top club teams in Europe and a very productive attacking mentality.
On the other hand Germany is a strong team, they always been some sort of favourites at any tournament they participate. Players like Ballack, Podolski or Klose can always make they difference on the pitch.
I expect a beautiful match, close enough as I believe none of the teams will assume strong attacking responsabilities at the begining. It is a difficult match to bet on, probably the best option would be to bet on handicap or “under”/”over” – goals scored. I would like to think the match will be decided in extra time or perhaps at penalties but you’ll never know what to expect from a final!

Russia is probably one of the most pleasant surprises at Euro 2008. The youngest squad from the whole tournament played some excellent football and at the same time very entertaining. Spain is one of the strongest teams in Europe at the moment with a few brilliant players.
I believe that Spain has the first chance due to the fact that most of their players are very experienced, play at top teams in Europe and they can face the pressure of such a tournament. The russians are young and the lack of experience at this level might be decisive.

Germany and Turkey will meet in the first Euro 2008 semifinal. I always said the germans win even when they play crap but when they get a good match I can’t see any team able to beat them. Turkey is one of the Euro surprises so far, they did very well and I’m sure many people wouldn’t expect them to play in the SF’s. I really enjoyed watching their football.
Unfortunately for Turkey they have quite a lot of injured players and that would make their life even harder against the germans. I expect a good game from both teams but honestly I don’t think Turkey will manage to win due to their lack of experience at this level and also due to their players shortage.

The World Champions, Italy will meet Spain in the last quarterfinal. Spain played some excellent football this tournament while Italy had some rather modest evolutions. However the italians are still a force in football and they might have the skills to beat the spanish team.
I expect a top match from two top teams for a place in the semifinals against the latest surprise, Russia.

Well, well, well…lots of surprises so far in the QS’s! I guess the bookies made a fortune from this Euro. Netherlands and Russia will play in the third quarterfinal. Another surprise? I wouldn’t be surprised
Netherlands is probably the best Euro team so far with so many quality players. On the other hand, Russia with a dutch coach, is the youngest squad at Euro. I never thought these young players will be able to go so far in the competition and theit lack of experience at this level might be a serious minus against the top dutch players.

The second quarterfinal is a match between two teams well known for their fighting spirit – Croatia and Turkey. The croats are slightly favourites but let’s not forget the impressive turkish qualification.
Unfortunatelly for Turkey, they won’t be able to fill the pitch with their best team as quite a few of their key players are suspended for two yellows. Croatia had the chance to rest some of their best players in the last match so I expect them to be pretty much fresh comparing with their opponents.

Half of the teams are going home already and what’s left is just the “creme de la creme” of Europe. There will be no easy matches from now on…any of the teams left having their chances to go through
Portugal and Germany will meet in the first quarterfinal match. The germans qualified from the second place of Group B while Portugal won Group A. It should be a great match, both of the teams having so many top quality players. A little plus for Portugal perhaps which is a more creative squad.

Russia and Sweden will meet in a decisive qualifying match. Both teams have 3 points each, Russia will qualify only if they win while Sweden should go through even if they draw due to better goal difference.
I expect a very good match where Russia should consider atacking as their only option. Sweden has a more mature team with experienced players so I think they will manage a draw at least.

Spain is already qualified for quarterfinals and probably as all the other teams, they will try to rest some of their main players. Greece is out of the competition so the match will be a sort of official “friendly”.
