Euro Cup

Congratulations to the very own John Terry, Ashley Cole, Gary Cahill, and Frank Lampard of Chelsea who are now playing in the Euro 2012 on England. The coach, Roy Hodgson, called upon these players to add onto the English team. Peter Cech will lead the Czech team in Group A, after he was named player of the year for the whole Czech team. He will be in the same group with Poland, Russia, and Greece. Meireles, a Chelsea midfielder, will be part of Portugal in Group B, while Malouda will be playing with France in Group D. Torres and Juan Mata have been announced as part of the Spanish lineup as they take place in Group C with Italy, Croatia and Ireland.
A side note includes players such as David Luiz, Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou. Luiz is going to play with Brazil in a couple friendlies that are coming up soon against Denmark and USA. Both Drogba and Kalou will be a part of Ivory Coast that will host a game against Tanzania and then later plays Morocco.
This Euro Cup will be a very interesting one, all teams fired up and ready to go! In group A, a big match up will be Poland verse Greece! Both teams have strong competitors. Group B will include a HUGE upset, as this pool includes Netherlands, Portugal, Germany, and Denmark. Unfortunately 2 teams will have to leave the tournament shorter than they had hoped for. In group C, Spain verse Italy will be probably one of the most intense games during this tournament, even though it will be each of their first games. Lastly, in Group D, you will have to look out for England verse France, as they will be fighting for that 1st place seed in their pool.
