Good morning folks. We are a little more than three hours from kickoff of the European Championship final between Germany and Spain and it is time to hear some predictions.
As most of you know, I picked Spain to win the tournament so I’m sticking to that prediction. I see the Spanish attack finding the cracks in the German defense much like Croatia did as goals from Fabregas and Guiza give the Spaniards a 2-1 victory in the final.
Now it’s your turn. Who do you see winning today and why? Give us your winner and scoreline in the comments section below.
I like the 2-1 score line.
I think Torres and Xavi will score for Spain, and Klose will score for Germany.
I think the game could be more open than that, possible 3-2 or 3-1, but that is mostly wishful thinking on my part. I think Spain walks away with this one.
2-1 Spain
Goals- Torres, Guiza (off the bench) Klose, with Germany scoring first..
Lehman hasn’t had a real shocker yet, which both surprises and worries me. That said, I still like the Germans.
I’ll go 2-1 to Germany, with Lehman blundering on the Spanish goal, and Schweinsteiger netting the winner.
3-2 to Germany
3-1 Spain, with two of the spainish goals coming in the second half after Cesc comes off the bench.
Another 2-1 Spain prediction…
Huh? I thought it was LA Galaxy and DC United playing?
Alright, 2-1 Spain also, but I want Germany
Spain, 3-1, goals for Torres, Cesc, and Guiza…
Too excited/scared to say.
‘Schland!
I absolutely love Spain — been rooting for them in international competitions for years now — and I will be downright ecstatic if they pull this one out.
That said: 2-0 Germany.
2-2. With Spain winning in penalty shoot out.
3-2 Germany. Klose has 2.
Go Spain.
Xavi 19′
Klose 27′
Torres 34′
Fabregas 75′
3-1
MOTM – Xavi
spain 3-1
I would like to think that it will be a goal fest but I just can’t see it happening. People are talking about just how great Spain is going to be in the 4-5-1 but I think that they will struggle a bit.
Fabregas is my favorite player in the world but that midfield is going to be very bogged down and it will be tough for any of the four creative forces for Spain to find room.
I hope that Aragones keeps Torres on for the entire game, and I think Fabregas will connect with Torres at some point in the match with a perfectly placed long-ball for the games only goal. 1-0 Spain.
Anyone know if the game is going to be broadcast on the web? ESPN 360 is not showing the game.
I say 2-1 Spain. Though, if Ballack doesn’t play, I say 2-0 Spain.
3-1 germany because spain will try to chase the game at the end and germany will break and seal it in the 86th min. schweinsteiger double and podolski for germany, fabregas for spain
