Germany and Romania should come out of group A. I dont think Italy will have any problem passing through group B, I think Belgium will beat out Sweden strictly due to home advantage. Group C is Yugo and Spain easily. Group D Holland and France but if the French don't get into form by then they will be in trouble.

Please don't forget Turkey.Germany wasn't able to score even a goal in 180 mins.Ý think in group B we will qualýfy with Sweden.Belgium and Slovenia are the two teams with no changes.Netherland and Spain are the great favourites.

I think it will be Romania and Portugal coming out of that group...England doesn't even deserve to be in Euro2000, considering they were outplayed by Scotland in the playoff, and Germany gets beat by the united States, how are they going to survive against players like Ilie, Hagi, Petrescu, and Figo, Rui costa, Joao Pinto, and Baia?
The other fact is that nobody fears Germany and England anymore, they may have been the powers in europe some years ago, but things have definatly changed.

It won't be easy for Portugal to come out of that group, but as Kill4Benfica said, Germany and England aren't as powerful as before. And if the Portuguese coach makes those players play well as a team they'll be the best! But still, it will be quite hard.
The first game beween England and Portugal will probably be very important.
On the other hand, most of the games will be in Holland, and there's some rivalry between the Dutch the English and Germans, so maybe the public will help Portugal and Romania to overcome the two favourites.

Spain, Holland and Italy have good chances, but I think Slovenia and Norway may turn out to be a nice surprise.
Group D will be hell on earth.

NEO 9,
I`ve got some great news for you. Henrick Larsson may make it in time for Euro 2000. Check it out:

Here are my predictions :
Group A:
I think this is the toughest group,but i beleive Portugal and England will go through ,but its tough.
Group B:
Italy should go through easily ,if they dont go through to the next round ,expect Zoff to be fired.I also think that Belgium will also go thruogh.
Group C:
Spain and Yugoslavia should go through ,but watch out for Slovenia who can surprise any one like they did against Ukraine.
Group D:
Netherlands and Czezh Rep. should go through but dont underestimate France or Denmark,both are tough teams to beat ,it will be a close one.

YES. Sweden got a great group. Intresting with
Germany
Romania
Portugal
England

Some great fights in that group...

Reply your thoughts...

I won't be surprised if Zoff is fired before the Euro 2000...

I would't write anyone off, Czech Rep was 200-1 shot in 96 and got to the final. Also those people who say this team doesnt deserve to be in it(England), etc. get over it your bitterness is pathetic.

England vs Germany.....hmmm, should be a nice friendly game!!!

At least it can't go to penaltys!!!

Final: Holland V Sweden
A Bergkamp hat-trick and a Larsson Hat-trick but overmars finds a winner and holland win 4-3. Ahh ok maybe not, but it would be nice.

Neo!!!!


You are writing about Sweden so I have a question: Är du från Sverige????

Om......så kan du kanske få spö i FIFA nån gång http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/wink.gif

GROUP A:
Germany
England/Portugal

GROUP B:
Italy
Sweden/Belgium

GROUP C:
Spain
Norway

GROUP D:
Netherlands
Chzech Rep.

Group B is the easiest, followed by group C, A, and the hell that is group D.

Divine you forgot TURKEY in group B.

Neo 9,
Larsson is already building up his leg muscles in celtic`s gym and can put enough weight on it to bounce on a trampoline, although i`m not sure why they are making him bounce on a trampoline it is a bit strange.
Sweden have a great team and i think they can make the final.

Yes GOONER. I've heard so too, but I think it will be though for Larsson to be in shape to the EUOR2000. Maybe he has started playing or traning. But that he will be in good shape I must say would be a miracle.

But u know...miracles happens...

Btw. I think Holland will win, I'm happy if Sweden get to the quarterfinals..
Also hopes Spain can do a good performance, cuz they got quality..
