Not sure...
I've seen Russia play and in the match against Holland they were GREAT
Spain won through penalties ...Turkey was in my eyes just lucky the reffery let the game go on for far to long ...
And Germany.....well we all know how great Germany can be...haven't seen their match unfortunatly so I cant judge them now....
But if you ask me who I would like to win than it's......
RUSSIA, AT LEAST THEIR COACH IS DUTCH  |

and now there are two!
So after tonight's game Russia are out and Spain go to meet the Germans in the final.
Now, I put a fiver on Germany at the beginning of the tournament, but now having seen Spain play well (again!) I think they'll beat Germany 3-1 in Sunday's final......
We'll see!

Of course Germany will win
Reason: The spanish soccer and the portuguese soccer are similar to each other and we are good at them. We are not good at games when we are to be the "better" team and have to start the game by ourselves.
(If the russians would have succeeded against the spanish i would have thought that Russia would be winner on sunday ) |

Germany, of course! We Germans are quite excited these days, to say the least - German flags everywhere; people are getting sort of nuts… As long as it's peaceful, it's alright.
Ok guys, see you on Sunday when us Krauts will be the new "Europameister"…

Well, Littlestar was right, Spain are Champions of Europe!
Even though I put a fiver on the Germans at the start, I did feel that Spain would beat them in the final.
Although the score was only 1-0, it was a comfortable victory.
To all our German friends out there....sorry, but you have won more than your fair share of tournaments!
....And don't forget qualifiers for the World Cup start soon...look out the WELSH are coming!!!!
(I once met Franz Beckenbauer- what a gentleman!)  |

The game was embarassing ...... so many problems just putting the ball from one guy to the next..... they played as if they never before played soccer.....
Spain is the champion and i think it's the best for us too. If they would have won with that bad quality of soccer ... oh my.
And i expected the game to be less rude...... from both sides.
Anyway let's see what the world cup will bring  |

Congrats to Spain!!
1701 is right - Germany made an embarassing game. Spain definitely was the better team, they fought well and their victory was well-deserved.
Make it more exciting next time, Ballack & Co.  |
