Boom. Ukraine and Poland. My picks are France or Germany. Huge concerns over racism in the host nations.

Germany or Spain are my picks. I don't really have a lot of faith in the French national team. My own will crash and burn in the group of death. Holland might be an outsider to take the title, they've got a solid team although lacking a quality left back.
I'll be rooting for Denmark, Sweden and Italy. I'll be rooting for Greece and England to get knocked the fück out.

Rooting for Italy? Really? IMO they are one the most boring teams to watch. France haven't lost in a while hence my pick, I think Spain are a bit vulnerable now as Iniesta,Xavi and Torres aren't in the best form.

All Hail Deutschland/Schweinsteiger!!!

This post is Gospel. But ill take Germany 2-1 in the final of Spain. Goals by Muller and Ozil. Spain's goal from one of their world class midfielders diceing through the back of the vulnerable German center backs. Racism is going to be a big problem no doubt... It would be even worse if teams from the Africas were here. Thered be bananas be thrown on field and what not. Cant stop the monster, unfortunately...

I love Italian football. I've watched the Serie A since forever and thus there are a lot of players I like on their national team. They don't play the most offensive football but I like their often controlled defensive and their technical abilities.
Spain is just Spain that is why I think they'll do well. They just play incredible football and have a top team. Lots of national teams use many different players and thus the team doesn't play as fluid. Spain has had a solid core of players for quite some time now so they all know each other very well.

You watched the BBC documentary called Stadiums of Hate? It depicts somewhat accurately what goes on in Poland and Ukraine during football matches. Poland has had some of the worst hooligans in Europe for years.

I'm rooting for Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Russia. Rooting against Spain and Portugal. Good start to the tournament with two entertaining matches.
