I have given some thoughts to the groups of Euro 2012 after the draw and feel like making some wild guesses. Feel free to disagree with my choices! ;)

Most Unpredictable Group: Group A

Group A consisting Poland, Greece, Russia, Czech. Personally, I think this group can be quite tricky, simply because they don’t have a team that stands out. Yes, Russia looks like the strongest among all but the gap isn’t that big after all. So any combinations is possible for this group. We may see some new faces in quarter-finals. My prediction? Russia and Poland. The host always has some advantages, no?

Well well, too bad that we had to miss the play-offs. 6-2 is quite a shock to us when the two teams managed to have a nil nil draw just a few days ago. Portugal has scored some brilliant goals last night and they certainly deserve this victory. No surprises in other games, as everyone could have predicted. Croatia, Czech Republic and Republic of Ireland are qualified to Euro 2012, all of these three teams scored in the 1st leg.

We are not going to get into detail here, but will highlight a few things that we think you will be interested.

The draw happened in Brazil and as you can imagine, a lot of Brazilian players were invited to take part in the draw. So who did we see last night? We saw Pele, Ronaldo, Cafu, Neymar, Lucas Piazon and more.
