No more waiting! The major football tournament in Europe kicks off tomorrow, hosts Ukraine and Poland. Europe is arguably the king of football and it has the most powerful and prominent professional teams in the globe. Players from different European countries will do whatever it takes to patriotically represent their countries.
EURO 2012 will hardly have underdogs because almost every team has developed in football in the last few years. Most teams know each other pretty well so the competition will be really stiff and surprisingly some football powerhouse will be upset by the "underdogs." Spain will be the defending champion but I don't see her successfully defending the trophy.
Some well established teams will be out to make a HUGE mark and probably win the entire tourney. Some of these giants are Germany, Netherlands, Spain and England. Some upcoming and young teams like France, Italy, Ukraine, Russia and Portugal, will try to prove a point but mostly show what their football future looks like. Every team has a weapon (key player) but football is a team game so the supporting cast has to facilitate the progress of the team in the EURO 2012.
It's hard for me to make a prediction of who will win it all, but I have a few teams that I greatly feel have a good shot at winning it ALL! France is upcoming, young, skillful and with a lot of fury. Spain is skillful, well experienced and plays "SEXY FOOTBALL." Netherlands is quality, very experienced and reminisces on the previous WORLD CUP FINAL 2010 loss against Spain. Teams like Croatia, Ukraine, Poland and Russia will be in it to cause upset but I don't see any of them taking the silverware home!
My EURO 2012 winner will be, France or Netherlands or Germany or Portugal. Fingers crossed because it is going to be a hot, really competitive and fun EURO 2012. ENJOY the beautiful game of Football!!!!
