Spain V Germany THE FINAL

[talking_silence]

Now that we have reached the final stage of Euro2008 which was pretty much interesting n a few shockers.But at the end of the day wat happened?Who got to the final?The same old germans which were the favourites in the start of the tournament.

But as of now they are no longer a favourite as far as bookies are concerned.And their favourites are now are spain with odds around 8/13 to lift the cup and as far as germans are concerned they are round 13/8 favourites to lift the cup.

But if we take a look at the two teams who do you think has got the most potential and temprament for these big occasions?I think every body will agree that the germans hav been in these situations plenty of times so they are more experienced.wat about spain?i guess they look outsiders in these kinda situations.Although they hav performed really well recently.But who against?In their group stages they were up against outsiders russia and greece and to some extent old peoples team sweden.So wat did they acheive?They beat russia sweden and greece.then italy in quarters who didnt look like they are going to win even a single game.thanks to red card with france game that italy were able to win.

Now looking at the germans.Although they didnt perform well in the tournament so far but still they are in it.A giant german team who is capable of winning any time.And look at their history.Whatever tournament is they are among favourites.So was the case in this tournament.But suddenly they are not even favouritess to lift the trophy.

I think bookies are really under estimating them.The presence of Ballack in the team is enough to tell the strength of the german team.

In my opinion if sombody is scared to put money on germany winning in 90 minutes then they shud bet on win outright with a good price of 13/8.so instead of taking a risk on 90 minutes shud hav a punt on that.Worth a chance.

My pick : Germany to win the cup

So wat do u people say? agree or disagree?

Heard that Ballack may be out for Germany. Still, they're a well organized team. Hard game to call imo.

Just got the news that Ballack is fit for the final.It is a tough game and spain will do wat ever they can.But still i hav got a feeling that it wont b enough to see them beat germans.
