Which Team Are You Rooting For !

[AsuraN]

It is the time for soccerfinatics to come and fight it out for their team. Now that the chokers/boring England is out :fryingpan come pick a team and let us know why !

[AsuraN]

Let me start by voting for SPAIN!! This poll will stay until the end of Group Stage and then another Poll! Get this up asap and we can pool $ for SGPOOL massbet ? L O L sry if its sensitive over here.

[waitforyou]

rooting for the Oranje. one scene deeply rooted in my mind was VDS 1 v 1 against another player at the 2002 World Cup. he didn't panic, just stood straight and wait for the player to make the first move. although eventually he did concealed that goal.

[RxC6]

spain too! too many young potential players in there...

but portugal and italy got some experience players too! :p

[Lawgic]

Italy all the way for me.
Remembered the 2006 World Cup finals.
Watched till the very end and was late for work the following day. :P

[AsuraN]

Netherlands was my all time childhood national team ! Till bergkamp, overmas, seedorf, de boer brothers retire n stuff. They were a nice team to watch but quite a choker team haha. Now they are exciting as well though !

I'll take POLAND as the underdog! Experience & consistant, should see them in quatars !

France n Portugal are also expected to see in quatars and semi i think :D

[reddevil0728]

Portugal!

[Lyfeforce]

The Dutch Masters.

[VeRy lUcKy]

I support the NETHERLANDS...since 1988

[elpibe10]

I'm a huge fan of Brazil (since the 70s) but will support Portugal for this upcoming competition solely because of Cristiano Ronaldo :thumb2:

[guy_]

Definitely Portugal

Wow ... shiok ! He's definitely my footballing God :thumb2:

[Dr_ARCHer]

I voted for Spain because I think they have some very good individual talents. However, the problem with Spain is that as a team, they don't seem to progress well, particularly in big games tournament. I had high hopes of them reaching the finals, but that didn't materialise at all.

[leebee]

Italia for me ! A lifetime supporter hehehe

[skweam]

i voted 3 teams, all underdogs. Holland, Sweden and Turkey!

[AsuraN]

swedes consistant, turks surprises once in awhile, the dutch always fails to deliver like the spaniards AHAHHA! I guess it's Germany lar but not many votes leh

[heartykid]

wa.. all main teams supported.. i shall vote for.. croatia! lol :hat1: i love being the underdog

[Digital]

Spain. I like their style of football.

[AsuraN]

wa.. all main teams supported.. i shall vote for.. croatia! lol :hat1: i love being the underdog

Haha Greece made me 1.2k for euro. Underdawgs FTW ! Heart is with holland n spain though

[Kimutaku]

For me i vote for Portugal :thumb2:

[tenzo]

any hope for germany this year?? havnt been following any games but id still vote for em :D

[stoneroses]

Think Germany won't be as offensive nor interesting as Klinsman's no longer the coach.
I do hope this time, teams like Spain and Holland will finally fulfill their potential and put on a worthy show.
My heart's with Spain for the sheer number of youth talents there but my brain says Portugal for one reason - Luis Filipe Scolari.

[Tanggang]

Not supporting any specific team but I believe it'll be between these 3: Germany, France & Spain. Darkhorse will be Romania.

Why these 4? Hint:Who's the Euro 08 official sponsor ;)

[tenzo]

[-MatsumotO]

[angle31]

[tenzo]

:songdah:finally someone who understands

[AsuraN]

:songdah:finally someone who understands

iirc the last world cup, germany did well without him and with him it's not a vast difference. Not like chelsea without terry nor liverpool without gerrard.

Hope he prove me wrong and well is this his last major tourny? He's quite old isn't he:boom:

[jessyL|ng]

Spain ~~~!!!

[Jiangxue]

Last few weeks of matches.... Ballack was in form for chelsea.... got some excellent displays and some nice goals...

But I still prefer watching Ronaldo.... except for his spoiltbrat sit-on-floor-and-bang-fists-on-ground antics. :P

just want to see him play; matters to his fans :hat1:

but yeah, i read it was supposed to be last international game; cant confirm this though, dont remember where or WHEN i read it

according to Wiki, hes 31

[Kimutaku]

Portugal FTW =P

[oOgA]

spain for me :D

[raysusan]

my vote goes to Portugal:)

[Outsider_27]

sweden got a all time consistent, ultra superb duper player - ibramovich.
but the rest r so so nia

but i like the new holland squad- the new squad seems to be better than the marc overmars days... more potential youngster are playing attacking football

but for me, i support Czech Republic

[skweam]

i voted 3 teams, all underdogs. Holland, Sweden and Turkey!

all doing very well :D hopefully sweden can win last match.

As per my pre-tournament prediction, and so its a Germany-Spain final. The sponsor will be very happy indeed :hat1:

[AsuraN]

Greatness ~ congrates to all the Spanish supporters ! Anyone bought them for championship? I didn't cuz I did not believe they will break the curse though I went all out for them. Thank gawd they wOn !
