STAGE IS SET FOR EURO CUP 2008 FINALS

Vs



The stage is set for summit clash of european championship 2008 between germany and spain. The final is on Sunday between two European powerhouses, each eager to shine on the big stage. Spain beat Russia in semi's in very impressive manner, though germany won the semi's against Turkey in an unimpressive manner one cannot underestimate Ballack's men in the finals as they were a very strong side for sure.
Spain’s Cesc Fabregas said that he had no intention of letting Sunday’s final against Germany slip through his hands.But at the Ernst Happel stadium on Thursday Fabregas got called up sooner than expected when striker David Villa had to come off injured in the 34th minute.
Spain have been underdogs for as long as I can remember and Germany haven’t really set the stage alight post their World Cup victory more than 20 years ago. Both teams will be taking an awful lot of confidence after their victories but I feel Spain have the edge, having earned a more decisive victory as compared to the Germans scrappy one.
