THE FINAL Euro 2008

[urmans]

EURO 2008 Final
Sunday, June 29 (2045 CET)
Ernst Happel Stadion, Vienna, Austria
Referee: Roberto Rosetti (Italy)

This Is It.... What was 16 teams just three weeks ago has now been whittled down to a final two, Spain and Germany, who face off in Sunday's final for the trophy. The two are almost polar opposites of European football, with Germany constantly performing to or even beyond their abilit at times to always pull through and be there or thereabouts in major tournaments while the Spanish, despite being technically talented, regularly flounder tactically, get overpowered and drop their heads far too easily.

Germany:
Probable starting line-up (4-5-1): Lehmann, Friedrich, Mertesacker, Metzelder, Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Frings, Ballack, Hitzlsperger, Podolski, Klose

Spain:
Probable starting line-up (4-5-1): Casillas, Ramos, Puyol, Marchena, Capdevila, Iniesta, Xavi, Senna, Fabregas, Silva, Torres

If Spain wins Euro 2008, they take €23 million in prize money. If Germany wins, they take €22m (one million less because they lost a group game to Croatia.)
