You are the host team. You have to win. Or kill your players. Or better: You need a couple of naturalized Brazilians!
EDIT: And I almost forgot: GRE fired king Otto. They don't have a defensive strategy anymore.

I agree, Lewandowski, Błaszczykowski and Piszczek are good players, but to win we ( Poles ) need more than three, we need an eleven good players.

POL - GRE 2:0, same as Infernotoni, because it could be the only opportunity to score some points. Also hoping for a great match.

Im portuguese and therefore will believe in Portugal until the end. Im actually happy with our opponents in this group stage since it will require that the team focus right at the beginning. Also, if we believe we can win the championship we cannot fear anyone. Let them come!

I know it will be difficult, Germany is (at least for me) one of the best teams in the whole world, but as I said, I will believe in my team until the very end. Hope tomorrow both teams will let us watch a great match!

I'm pretty sure the match will be great - perhaps the toughest one in the group stages (yes, I think it will be more intense than GER-NET).

I'm also looking forward to POR-NET. As ugly as it was, their confrontation in 2006 was somewhat of a highlight ^^

Yes, Im also very excited about the match with Netherlands, hope however that this time there will be more fair-play from both sides.

You've never heard of open hostility? Munich '74, Hamburg '88, many jokes about Holland and open hatred. Holland is just our favorite enemy.

no foul==no card, slipping is no reason for giving a red card in the first half of a EURO opening game, imho. More sensitivity needed.

The referee just thinks: "Hmm, in Spain I give 0,5 red cards/game in the average. But hell, after this I won't host a game in this tournament anymore. Needs moar cards!"
