EURO 2008
Germany - Turkey
There is no excuse for these prices.
Germany has not played special football, their defence has holes.
The only reason they're here is because group A and B were extremely weak.
The same can be said for Turkey, but the differences between the two teams is very small.
We must take advantage of the huge prices!

dude. Germany shows up for big games. More to the point, Turkey was a team of walking and crawling wounded. They only had 15 players who could even pass their fitness test. They were joking about having their 3rd string keeper playing as forward. If it hadn't been for the injuries I'd agree, but the odds were obviously in Germany's favor. They didn't run away with it, but they certainly nicked it in the end.
C'mon Spain. If Aragones sticks with his usual top name starters Russia will run away with it I think. If he starts his hungry kids who actually work better as a team, I think they'll win.

I don't understand why Spain is the favorite here.

Because Russia has played well enough, but Arshavin has had an incredible tournament. He is playing how people thought Ronaldo would. BUT he's only one man. Spain doesn't rely on any one player. If Torres is closed down, Villa steps up. Iniesta having an off day? Fabergas is there. They're playing well as a team. But they are week at the back so we shall see.
