Navijam da prođu Poljaci i Rusi ali ce vjerovatno Grci sa svojim sugavim nogometom proci

[Jaz]

I ja isto za Poljake i Ruse, a po meni oni su i favoriti. Najslabija grupa, ubedljivo, ali opet interesantna jer je izjednacena.

[Sky]

ja sam za Ruse i Čehe, pa očekujem da će oni proći

[SN10]

za rusiju i poljsku (za poljake samo zbog levandovskog doduse )

[Nele]

Za Grčku i Rusiju se navija

[SN10]

za grcku ne navijam iz principa od kad ne igra angelos charisteas...

[Jaz]

za rusiju i poljsku (za poljake samo zbog levandovskog doduse )

... Blascikovski i Piscek.

[SN10]

sram me bilo,lukasa sam zaboravio ..jos da i frankovski igra i bila bi to sjajna ekipica

[Strax]

Najizjednačenija grupa. Svi imaju šansu.

[dr Hofmann]

Mislim da su tu Rusi prilicno bolji od ostatka,mada ni oni ne igraju nesto pretjerano.Borba za drugo mjesto bi trebala da bude zanimljiva,vidjecemo kako ce se Poljaci izboriti sa pritiskom.

[SN10]

kakva bi forica bila da grci na otvaranju opet deknu domacine nekim krompirom ili golicem tipa "najjaci udarac glavom ikada"

[Gogsii]

ocekujem prolaz ceske i rusije

[Zola]

Rusi recimo da imaju najkvalitetniji tim, ali ne igraju neki fudbal. Dok Poljaci imaju prednost domaceg terena al to moze da bude dodatni pritisak. Bice za nimljivo za ispratiti, iskreno i nemam nekog favorita, Cehe sam ranije gotivio (kao i predpostavljam svi), sada su onako, nista.
