Winners
Germany. The squad is experienced without being aged- most went through World Cup 2006 and a few go back to 2002. As a group they look ready to win something
Surprise Package
As Guud Hiddink is such a great coach I'll go for Russia - just as big underachievers as Spain really
Supporting
Croatia- to produce the players they do from a 4.5 million population and consistently qualify (6 out 7 major tournaments since independence) they deserve to be there
Outstanding Player
Michael Ballack. Probably a surprise choice but few teams win trophy at this level without a fulcrum. His last chance at this level and he's had a light workload this season but run into form at the end of it. Won't be the most noticed player but he could be the most influential
Emerging Player
Sebastian Prodl of Austria. Due to go to Werder Bremen and highly praised by the Italian media for his defending at the World under-20 Championship. Likely to get a lot of exposure in a mediocre Austrian team
Whipping Boys
Greece: they can't be as lucky this time round.
What Hugh Larkin Think about EURO 2008
What Antony Melvin Think about EURO 2008
Winners
Czech Republic - the winners are less commonly the European World Cup powers Germany and Italy. Of the last five winners (Greece, France, Germany, Denmark, Netherlands) exclude Germany and there is one World Cup win between them. The Czechs won it in 1976 and are a good, uncomplicated side in an easy to qualify group.
Surprise Package
Croatia - hugely confident and will progress to the knock-out stages with ease; a place in the final will be no surprise.
Disappointments
Spain - aren't they always?
Supporting
Football - it will be nice to be a neutral and latch on to whoever is playing the best football.
Oustanding player
Ronaldo or Ballack are temptations, but after such a long season big team players not involved in the Champions' League could be pivotal - Franck Ribery I'm talking about you.
Emerging player
Karim Benzema is being touted as worth £30m - let's see why.
Whipping Boys
Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Greece, Turkey, Romania - the list is surprisingly long.

World champions start continental quest
Just once, eight years ago, have the FIFA World Cup holders won the ensuing UEFA European Championship. Italy, beaten in that 2000 final, begin their bid to emulate France on Monday against a Netherlands team confident they can overcome the absence of Arjen Robben.
Burden
Azzurri coach Roberto Donadoni succeeded Marcello Lippi after the 2006 World Cup victory in Germany and, as he considered the Netherlands encounter in Berne, as well as the subsequent Group C tests against Romania and France, he admitted that their exalted status could be a burden. "When a side are world champions, there are obviously expectations," Donadoni said. "People think that because you won the World Cup it is a guarantee that you are going to win. But it happens at club as well as international level – you can win the UEFA Champions League but it doesn't mean you will win it again. Every time there is a different winner and it is very difficult to repeat victories."
Materazzi favoured
The captain from 2006, Fabio Cannavaro, is out with an ankle injury and Marco Materazzi is favourite to take his place alongside Andrea Barzagli in central defence while Antonio Di Natale could beat the squad's new skipper, Alessandro Del Piero, to a start on the left of the attack. Christian Panucci did tweak a knee tendon on Friday but Donadoni – who was still experimenting with different lineups in Sunday training – said the right-back has "no problem" now. As for Italy's opponents, Donadoni said: "The Netherlands did well in qualifying and have some interesting players with plenty of skill, so we have taken that into consideration. It is not going to be easy." He added: "I think the Netherlands team are helped by the fans all dressing in orange – you really notice them. Aesthetically, it is beautiful."
Van Persie hope
Donadoni's former AC Milan club-mate Marco van Basten, who was already without Ryan Babel for the tournament, lost winger Robben to a groin injury which the Netherlands coach said looks likely to rule him out for "at least seven days" – including for the France game on 13 June. However, Robin van Persie is training again after a thigh complaint and may yet pip Ibrahim Afellay or Dirk Kuyt to selection. Right-back Mario Melchiot, meanwhile, has recovered from a pubic bone problem. Van Basten said: "Robben is an important player – it is a disadvantage that he is not playing. But we played a lot of qualifying matches without Arjen and other players, so we are still capable of getting a good result."
'Difficult job'
Not that it will be easy against Italy, whom the Netherlands have not defeated since 1978. "Two years ago they were world champions and they still have mostly the same players," the Oranje trainer continued. "It is going to be a difficult job for us and the group will be difficult with France and Romania. We will have to perform very well but we will give it a try."
Modrić penalty undoes gutsy Austria
Austria went the same way as co-hosts Switzerland, opening their UEFA EURO 2008™ challenge with a narrow defeat as Luka Modrić's early penalty gave Croatia victory in Vienna.
Fastest penalty
The midfielder scored the only goal of the first Group B game in the fourth minute, firing in after Ivica Olić had been brought down by René Aufhauser – the fastest penalty converted in the history of the finals. The home side took time to find their feet after that setback, but mounted a stirring late charge with substitute Roman Kienast heading centimetres past the post seconds before the whistle.
Dreadful start
Coach Josef Hickersberger ended the goalkeeper conundrum by selecting Jürgen Macho ahead of Alex Manninger but, with three minutes and 35 seconds on the clock, the Austria No21 was forced to pick the ball out of the net following the worst of starts. Modrić showed outstanding control to keep an attack alive down the left and found Olić, who was blocked by Aufhauser as he attempted to go outside the midfielder. Modrić slotted in the spot-kick with aplomb, driving down the centre of goal with Macho diving to his right.
Set-piece threat
With an entire nation having worked themselves into a fever of anticipation, it was a blow that could have shattered Austrian morale. For Slaven Bilić's men, meanwhile, the immediate breakthrough settled Croatian nerves and there was an assured control about their football. The home team looked vulnerable every time Croatia forced a set-piece, Darijo Srna's delivery proving impeccable. It left Martin Stranzl and company overworked and little was happening at the other end to lift local spirits, although Sebastian Prödl shot wide from distance with Stipe Pletikosa watching it all the way. The Austria defender then rose highest to meet a corner but his effort flew beyond the far upright.
Austria regroup
After Mladen Petrić had rushed a volley, sending the ball off target, Austria finally began to assert themselves and proved they could get behind the Croatia back line. Martin Harnik gathered a ball played incisively inside the full-back and his cut-back prompted some hurried defensive measures from Josip Šimunić before a long diagonal pass found Joachim Standfest, who could not place his header on target.
Harnik outlet
Austria kicked off the second half where they had left off with Harnik, a focal point for their progress down the right, bursting beyond his marker and it was unfortunate Aufhauser could not connect with the hard-driven centre. From a similar position moments later, Harnik put too much power into his cross and the chance went begging. Perhaps inspired, Modrić went on a right-sided excursion of his own, and Stranzl had to call on all his experience to avert the danger. Austria then brought on the championship's oldest player, the 38-year-old Ivica Vastic, in a bid to rescue the situation.
Late flurry
With another substitute, Ümit Korkmaz, adding a vital spark, Austria threw everything at Croatia in a rousing finale, Harnik shooting too high when well-placed and Pletikosa almost fumbling a Vastic header. The Croatia goalkeeper then had to push aside Korkmaz's fierce drive but he was a spectator in added time as Kienast met a left-wing free-kick with a header that flew just wide as Austria's last chance went begging. Croatia continue their campaign against Germany in Klagenfurt on Thursday, when Austria will hope for better fortune against Poland in this stadium.
Podolski double gets Germany going
An emotional Lukas Podolski struck in either half to give Germany an ideal start to their UEFA EURO 2008™ Group B campaign with victory against debutants Poland in Klagenfurt.
Star turn
The Polish-born FC Bayern München forward produced a vintage display as the three-time European champions recorded a solid win, putting Germany in front with a simple finish midway through the first half. Poland, in their first EURO finals match, pressed for a way back into the game but struggled to unpick Germany's defence and Podolski finally ended their hopes with an emphatic volley.
Krzynówek chance
With national pride and neighbourly rivalry adding an extra frisson and both sides keen to make a positive start there was plenty at stake, and it was Poland who began the brighter as they went in search of a first victory against Germany. Leo Beenhakker's team came close in the opening minute when Jens Lehmann got tangled up with Per Mertesacker while trying to deal with a high cross and the ball fell invitingly to Jacek Krzynówek, but the VfL Wolfsburg midfielder blazed over.
Gómez goes close
Germany responded in kind to signal their own intent, and should have opened the scoring after Michael Ballack sprang the Poland offside trap to release Miroslav Klose into an ocean of space down the left. The Mannschaft's other Polish-born striker bore down on Artur Boruc's goal but elected to pass and Mario Gómez was unable to make a proper connection at full stretch with the goalkeeper stranded, the ball slipping narrowly the wrong side of the post.
Podolski opener
Germany looked the stronger team as the first half unfolded and duly went ahead in the 20th minute after again catching their opponents flat-footed at the back. Gómez sent Klose clear on the right and this time the square pass was perfectly delivered, leaving Podolski to tuck the ball neatly past Boruc. Head bowed and unsmiling, the scorer denied himself a true celebration out of respect for his heritage. Maciej Żurawski might have levelled while Gómez could have increased the German advantage with a clever flick, yet half-time came with no change to the scoreline.
Poland rally
Ballack could have strengthened Germany's position two minutes into the second period but his attempt skewed awkwardly off his thigh. Poland were far from out of it, however, maintaining a healthy share of possession without making significant inroads, while their supporters behind the goal provided plenty of encouragement. Those fans were further heartened as substitute Roger Guerreiro made some surging runs down the left, then Euzebiusz Smolarek had an effort ruled out for offside.
Clinching second
The alert Boruc tipped over Ballack's well-struck attempt but was powerless to prevent Podoski sealing the points in the 72nd minute – few goalkeepers would have kept it out. A swift passing move was cut off by Paweł Golański yet substitute Bastian Schweinsteiger dispossessed the defender and, although Klose missed his kick, Podolski showed how it should be done with a sweet left-foot volley. This time he allowed himself a satisfied smile and he was fully entitled to it having given Germany their first finals win since the Czech Republic were defeated in the EURO '96™ showpiece. Poland's long wait to overcome Germany continues but they next face co-hosts Austria on Thursday, when Germany play today's other winners Croatia.
Switzerland party crashed by Svěrkoš
Czech Republic substitute Václav Svěrkoš crashed the party for co-hosts Switzerland by scoring the only goal of the UEFA EURO 2008™ curtain-raiser in Basel.
Deflated
Svěrkoš struck after 71 minutes to defeat a home side already deflated by a knee injury to forward Alexander Frei. The closest the Swiss came to rescuing a Group A point was a late Johan Vonlanthen shot off the underside of the crossbar.
Bright start
If the opening ceremony did the traditional job of canning the host countries' best characteristics in an attractive package, the opening match started as anything but the typical cagey affair. There was a roar of anticipation when Switzerland captain Frei fired wide. Then Tranquillo Barnetta whipped in a cross to continue the frenzy. Valon Behrami was next to impress, outwitting Jaroslav Plašil and Marek Jankulovski before twice testing the Czech Republic's air defences.
End to end
But this was no siege. David Jarolím caused anxiety among the predominantly partisan home crowd with a cross-shot that back-tracking Diego Bengalio touched to safety. Jarolím's next act, however, was to lose a challenge to Behrami, providing the springboard for the midfielder to let fly a shot which Petr Čech parried. The deeper-lying Gökhan Inler took that as his cue to sidestep a defender and strike, albeit into Čech's arms.
Frei threat
It was a less intricate movement – a long thump forward unattended by Czech Republic centre-backs David Rozehnal and Tomáš Ujfaluši – which resulted in Switzerland's most incisive moment of the first half. Frei, his country's 35-goal leading scorer, darted between defenders and Čech but flicked his shot against the goalkeeper's legs. Jan Koller has long been to the Czechs what Frei is to the Swiss. The St. Jakob-Park crowd got a reminder of the totem's menace when he escaped markers Philippe Senderos and Patrick Müller and narrowly failed to connect with Plašil's dangerous delivery.
Agony
Back at the other end, Frei stung the hands of Čech from 20 metres after a loose ball had undone Karel Brückner's side. But when Frei's left knee was caught in a tangle with Zdeněk Grygera close to half-time, the effect to the co-hosts was a far greater body blow than the challenge itself. The 28-year-old BV Borussia Dortmund player left the field in tears. Just what home coach Köbi Kuhn did not need.
Yakin influence
The beginning of the second period brought some cheer. Hakan Yakin, on for Frei, announced his arrival by turning his markers and earning a free-kick which Barnetta placed centimetres too high. Then the ball just would not drop right for the No16 as he chested down Yakin's cross inside the area. Swiss passions stirred anew: Ludovic Magnin looped in a shot before Barnetta volleyed over from Stephan Lichtsteiner's inviting centre.
Super sub
But after Magnin was booked for a foul on Libor Sionko, the Czech Republic forward should have scored from Jankulovski's perfectly flighted free-kick. Yakin was no less guilty with a free header as he attempted to enhance his reputation as an impact substitute. Instead, Svěrkoš took on the role with 19 minutes remaining. Following a period of Czech pressure prompted by Sionko and Plašil, the striker latched on to Zdeněk Grygera's forward header to direct a cool, low finish to Benaglio's left – the 24-year-old's first international goal. A player from FC Baník Ostrava had just ruined Switzerland's big day.
Scolari's men too strong for Turkey
Losers on the opening day four years ago, Portugal made a sure-footed start to UEFA EURO 2008™ as second-half strikes from Pepe and substitute Raul Meireles secured all three points against Turkey at the Stade de Genève.
Just deserts
It was a deserved victory for Luiz Felipe Scolari's men who also rattled the woodwork twice through Nuno Gomes. For Turkey, by contrast, defeat here continued their unhappy sequence of results against not just Portugal, who had previously bettered them at the 1996 and 2000 finals, but also teams coached by Scolari – his Brazil beat them twice at the 2002 FIFA World Cup – and made Wednesday's Group A meeting with Switzerland a virtual eliminator.
Upwardly mobile
Portugal entered the tournament seeking to continue their upwards trajectory in European finals: quarter-finals in 1996, semi-finals in 2000 and runners-up in 2004. And they made the early running here, with Bosingwa hitting the outside of the post with a low cross inside two minutes. After 42 goals this season for Manchester United FC, Cristiano Ronaldo, understandably, found himself crowded by white shirts in the initial stages but his threat was evident from the game's first corner, delivered by Simão. Ronaldo appeared poised to strike only for Servet Çetin to produce a timely block. Portugal did get the ball in the net from another Simão corner in the 17th minute but Pepe's header was ruled out for offside.
Survivors
At the other end, Nihat Kahveci saw a free-kick in a promising position trickle behind off the Portugal wall. Nihat was one of only two survivors from Turkey's 2002 World Cup team in the starting lineup alongside Emre Belözoğlu, and he and his fellow forwards – Kazım Kazım and Mevlüt Erdinç, both playing their first competitive internationals – had scant opportunities in a first period controlled by Portugal. With the half-hour approaching, Simão curled a free-kick narrowly over and moments later there was a collective drawing of breath as Ronaldo cut inside to escape the shackles of Hakan Balta and proceeded to weave his way between three white shirts. If the finish was lacking, Ronaldo then drew a fine save from Volkan Demirel with a low free-kick driven in from the left. Although the ball bounced in front of Volkan, he managed to get a fingertip to it and touch it on to the far post.
Breakthrough
With João Moutinho also going close, it was no surprise Turkey coach Fatih Terim sought to tighten up his midfield for the second half, sending on Sabri Şarıoğlu. Yet Turkey were soon on the back foot once more. Simão dispossessed the dawdling Gökhan Zan and Nuno Gomes nipped in to fire the loose ball against the inside of the upright. After Gökhan, injured in that incident, limped off to be replaced by Emre Aşık, Portugal came again, Ronaldo shooting low at Volkan. The breakthrough finally came after 61 minutes. Pepe, carrying the ball forward with an assuredness not usually associated with centre-halves, played a one-two on the edge of the box with Nuno Gomes and burst through to finish past Volkan for his first international goal. Nuno Gomes nearly added a second soon after, only to see his header rebound off the crossbar. Turkey's hopes of snatching a late equaliser vanished with Tuncay's air shot before Meireles, also with a maiden Portugal goal, doubled the lead in added time, sliding the ball into an empty net after Moutinho's trickery had taken out Volkan.
What Paul Grech Think About Euro 2008
Paul Grech
Winners
The injury to Fabio Cannavaro will hurt them but I still think that Italy will win it. They closed qualification pretty convincingly, Roberto Donadoni seems to have settled in and tactically they are the most flexible side.
Surprise Package
I've got a feeling that Romania are grossly undervalued and might cause a shock in the Group of Death(TM). Guus Hiddink's Russia, however, seem to have fate on their side so I'm going to stick with them.
Who Will I Be Supporting
Spain for one reason and one reason only: Fernando Torres.
Outstanding Player
It is hard to look beyond Cristiano Ronaldo at the moment. If he can handle the pressure that comes from shouldering the responsability of the hopes of your country, then he might cap off a fantastic season in style.
Emerging Player
If he can keep David Trezeguet out of the side, then Bernard Gomis must be quite a talent.
Whipping Boys
They're so bad that even their own fans started a petition to get them withdrawn from the competition. Austria were lucky to be drawn in a pretty weak group but it would be a huge surprise to see them end the tournament with more than zero points.
5 Goals Should Do It To Make Euro 2008 Top Scorer
Before every major tournament the speculation starts about who will emerge as the main hitman. Often it's an unlikely name (Salvatore Schillaci, anyone?) but that doesn't prevent the guessing game.
The Euro Finals have only been a 16 team competition since 1996, thus popping in an extra game and 5 goals has been the standard to get the Golden Boot.
In 2004 it was Milan Baros of the Czech Republic who put aside indifferent form in the Premiership and ended on top of the pile even though the Czechs missed out on the Final. Eventual winners Greece specialised in single goal wins.
In 2000 there was no surprise to see Holland's Patrick Kuivert bang in a quintet of goals. Aston Villa fans were a bit nonpluassed to see Yugoslavia Savo Milosevic (aka Misalot) join him. At Euro 96 Alan Shearer's 5 strikes so nearly carried Terry Venables' side all the way.
Before 1996 there were only 8 qualifiers, so no quarter-final. Marco Van Basten still managed to crack home 5 in 1988 including a hat-trick against England. 1992 broke tradition as several players posted a miserly three in a dull tournament.
Even Van Basten couldn't better the superhuman effort by Michel Platini in 1984. The French genius struck nine - yes you did read that right- times in just 5 games. No one else in the competition bagged more than three.
For fans considering a punt this time several factors are worth bringing into the equation;
1 Is your man a regular starter?
2. Do they take penalties and free kicks? Nearly all top scorers do one or both.
3 Do they play for a side likely to go all the way , or at least to the semis?
4 Do they avoid yellow cards? One game out for suspension can make all the difference.
5 Do they play for an attacking side? Greece won the thing in 2004 but were never likely to produce the top scorer with their style of play.
6 Is he the main striker? Teams that share the goals around don't deliver the top scorer. In 2004 Baros was allowed to play for the Czechs in a way that Liverpool hadn't used him- Milosovic was very much the spearhead for the Yugoslavs 4 years earlier.
What Stephen Orford Think about EURO 2008
Winners
Portugal. I think Ronaldo might do a Diego.
Surprise Package
Romania. They'll do at least one of the big three.
Supporting
Spain. See Paul's reasoning, plus there's Xabi and Pepe.
Oustanding player
Ronaldo, otherwise my winners prediction is up the spout.
Emerging player
Karim Benzema has the chance to show exactly why everyone has been banging on about him.
Whipping Boys
Surprisingly not Austria, but possibly Greece. Their ultra-defensive style can't work again, and even though they qualified well they are still prone to the odd pounding.
Euro 2008 interest - Manchester United
Current players: A relatively small number of Manchester United players will be in action at Euro 2008 this summer, something that will no doubt please Sir Alex Ferguson as he plots the way to more glory for the Reds.
Even better for Fergie of course is the fact that it is England's failure to reach the final stages of the tournament that means Rio Ferdinand, Owen Hargreaves and Wayne Rooney among others will get a decent summer break.
Christiano Ronaldo will be there and is expected to be the star of the show as Portugal look to go one better than in their homeland four years ago.
"There is no doubt that Ronaldo is in great form but I cannot guarantee he will be in the same form as he's been at Manchester United," said coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, who has also named Nani in his squad for Austria and Switzerland.
Patrice Evra has been named in France's provisonal 30-man squad for the competition while Edwin Van der Sar of Holland will bow out of international football after the tournament.
Evra is keeping his focus on the upcoming games despite the temptation to celebrate following United's Champions League victory.
"It was good, I didn't really party a lot because after tomorrow I need to go with the national team," he said. "I don't drink alcohol anyway."
Tomasz Kuszczak, deputy to Van der Sar for the majority of the season at Old Trafford, willl perform a similar role to Celtic's Artur Boruc during the tournament.
Former stars: Henrik Larsson will enjoy yet another swansong to his seemingly endless career after coming out of international retirement for a second time.
"When I last retired, I didn't think I'd be playing this long and that it would go this well," he said after being named in the Sweden squad.
The Holland party meanwhile contains Ruud van Nistelrooy, now back in the international fold after patching up his differences with manager Marco Van Basten
Transfer targets? Reported United targets Joao Moutinho and Miguel Veloso of Sporting Lisbon are part of the Portugal squad while a potential star of the tournament, Karim Benzema of Lyon and France is a player long linked with a move to Old Trafford.
That description applies also to Klaas-Jan Huntelaar of Ajax and Holland, for whom a big Euro 2008 will equal a big money move in time for next season.
