Euro 2008. Tomorrow begins the big date

Tomorrow begins the most important football event of the year. Not the sport, the Olympic Games are just around the corner aa. The Euro 2008 will begin at 18.00 pm, in Basel, with the match Switzerland - Czech Republic.

The Swiss team has a responsibility to play a good game to his liking. It's hosting the European Championship with Austria, which does not seem right. In a tournament where only 16 teams have no place seems excessive to me to be allowed to organize two countries, leaving only 14 spaces for other countries. But anyway, I'm not the one responsible for these decisions.

The first game we will see is Switzerland - Czech Republic. Needless to say, the favorite, despite playing against the hostess, is the Czech Republic. The Swiss come to this Euro trying to pass the first round, which was not made in either shares have enjoyed earlier. The World will give you better, two years ago arrived in eighths, as in the U.S. World where Spain were eliminated in the same round.

The Czech Republic, meanwhile, gets no Rosicky, banner of the selection. Yet the midfielder's low is no reason to spend real trouble against Switzerland, but in a tournament of this nature, you never know. They have the likes of Baros. Koller will retire after Euro. At the last Euro Czechs arrived with high expectations of doing something important, at the height of Pavel Nedved, who is not attending this year's European Championship, the Czechs overcame a difficult goals in the group shared the limelight with Holland, Germany and Latvia weak . The Czech Republic finished with them, ending the group stage with 9 points and then smashed to Denmark 3-0 in the quarterfinals.

But in the semifinals to Greece found that with a game nothing spectacular but very effective they won 1-0 and goodbye, very good.

Tomorrow, at 19.45 we have the answer to the first match of the Euro.
