What's your prediction for the Euro 2008 final score? Germany-Spain

What's your prediction for the final score, euro 2008?
Germany - Spain


I say Germany 2 - 3 Spain

Spain- I hope Fernando Torres scores 2 times. The most important player for Spain will be "San Iker" and Xavi. Spain made the cover of the Sports section of my hometown newspaper "La Opinion." Check it out!

subheadline: "The Spain national team scores against Russia with authority and arrives to the final of the Eurocup after 44 years."

Do you agree with the first line? "Spain gave a soccer clinic/lesson and goals to Russia by thrashing it yesterday by 3 goals to 0 in the semi-final.?"

In the end Guiza is the surprise player for the Spanish team, don't you think? It hought Torres was going to impress with his goals. Of the forwards that was David Villa. Guiza scored 2 goals Torres only 1 and coming in as a substitute!

About the yellow shirt bringing bad luck, and Aragones admitting he was superstitious about it. In your face! It got them to a euro 2008 final. If you're going for Spain in the final, enjoy the picture:

Germany- I was reading today's La Opinion, spanish-language newspaper in Los Angeles, CA. On page 7C, the Headline: "Germany creates doubts."

Beckenbauer says that the team's future is a cause for concern. Great thing to say before the euro 2008 final! What's wrong with him? Here's a picture of it:

He was asked about Germany's quarterfinal game against Turkey. "We needed an individual effort to win and thank god Philipp Lahm did it."

The day after the game, German paper "Bild" reflects this pessimistic headline "With this luck and effort, we'll be champions of Europe. It was beautiful but cruel at the same time."





- What are your thoughts before the final Germany-Spain? Crucial players for each side?

Ideal starting lineup?

I'm going for Spain on this one. For a Portugal fan it's unheard of. I'm not Portuguese and Germany eliminated Portugal anyway.
