Euro 2012 Countdown: Group D

23May 2012

EURO2012

Group D in Euro 2012 is a really fascinating group with no clear stand out favourites. Many people will point to France but their 1998 World Cup win and 2000 European Championship triumph is fading further and further into history. France have had two absolutely disastrous World Cups since then and have gone home in shame. It is maybe time for France to come good again but they will find it tough in Group D.

England fans go into this tournament on a very low ebb after the reign of Fabio Capello came to an abrupt end in February. Many fans do not believe that Roy Hodgson is the right man for the job and even qualifying from this group will be tough for an England side lacking confidence and preparation. Ukraine and Sweden will be tough opponents for France and England and you can expect a closely fought group here.

 

 

France play England in the opening game just like they did in Euro 2004 when France scored two very late goals to almost steal a 2-1 victory. Nobody expects the winner of Euro 2012 to come from Group D and the winners and runners up will have to play the winners and runners up from Group C which involves Spain and Italy.
