Personally I'd like to see Germany or Sweden take it, I know it's a longshot, but I love underdogs.

Germany an underdog? lol Germany is never an underdog, they usually score the winning goal in the last minute... They've also won their fair share of cups and are always qualified... Signature temporarily out of order until I get off my lazy ass to fix it. |

Germany are far from the great team they were but still far from underdogs.

Also, woe is me. Italy's captain and one of the best defenders in the world, Fabio Cannavaro, is out due to injury. I have faith Italy can manage without him but it will certainly be tough. |

They should all be on ESPN 2 (or so I thought). That does suck if you don't have those stations but at least they are showing all the games in the states.Â

Yeah I can't wait for that one either. It might be a stretch but I got Poland being a dark horse in that group and winning it. Far fetched? Probably but I would like to see it happen.

Ani, i'll be watching tomorrow for the Netherlands V Italy.
If my copy of Winning Eleven 2007 is any indication, the Netherlands are quite good? Don't think they have what it takes though. Meanwhile, Croatia seems to be stealing win after win. First they knocked England out in the qualifiers, and yesterday they stole a match against Austria. Should have been a tie game if not for the Penalty Kick. After tomorrow it'll be a lull until France V Italy ;D |
