We’re coming to the last group. I think this group will provide a big surprise because it’s consist of “The Euro Cup Holders” Greece, “The Young Matador” Spain, “The Most Improving Team of the Year” Russia, and “The Tournament team” Sweden . This group is just like Group A in Euro 2004 except Portugal is replaced by Sweden
First, there is Greece who is once again becoming an underdog even when they are the winners of the previous Euro Cup. A Lot of the players in the winning squad of Euro 2004 has left the team. Otto Rehhagel will have to prove that they are still the same team that shocks the world 4 years ago since they not get thorugh in World Cup 2006. It’s up to them now to become a winner again or the loser this time.
Next up, Spain who dropped Raul Gonzalez out of the team and will hope that their young players like Cesc Fabregas, Fernando Torres, & David Villa can bring a new spirit to the squad. Spain who’s not really good in tournament like this will have to prove to the fans that they can do better without Raul. With the champion mentality that all the players have, Spain is up one level in this group.
Russia who beats England to get to this year tournament is improving well in Guus Hiddink’s hand. I think this is the year for the Russians. It started with the national team that consist of almost all local players who’s very good in this year, then Zenit St.Petersburg who become this year UEFA Cup’s Winners, and not to forget that the final Champions League that held in Moscow. So I won’t be shock if Russia can beat Greece & Sweden to accompany Spain to the next round.
Sweden who will count on their star, Zlatan Ibrahimovic who hasn’t scored for the national team in 3 years will once again try to prove that they are a good team with a good measurement in the squad. They just don’t have a good self belief and when they get through to the next round they just feel enough and won’t fight anymore.
My prediction is that Spain & Russia will go to the next round.
