Starting with on of the strongest teams of this championship, it's difficult to know the weakness of the geramn team: its srtucture is based on the titular team of Bayern - so this will mean that the team will acknowledge wearing, because they anly finished their season in May, 19th with the champions league.
And, if they passed from the groups phase, would they inverse the bad results on the latest championships (loosing in the semi-finals of the last two world cups, and the final of Euro 2008)?
But, if some of the main players are from Bayern, that made a great season, this can mean that the players are able to show all their qualities, and close with key-of-gold, this season.
The german team has everything to face this competition with optimism: a perfect combination between a great physic condition and great competence at technical level. There aren't big weak points, except maube the youth of some players, little used for this kind of competitions.
Obviously, the aspiration of the german team is to win this competiton. The results sepak by theirself: they had a good qualifying phase, with only victories: the coach (in the place since 2008), Joanchin low, follows the same philosophy of his predecessor.
One of the biggest reference in the players, is the medium of Real Madrid, Mesut Ozil, that was an extraordinary assintance, pointing 5 goals.
Denmark:
The statistics are against it. In this group of "fire", the Danish selection is what has more chance of be less successful, though they finished the qualifying better than Portugal.
And in this championship does not have the stars of the past as Michael Landrup, Sarem Lerby or Allan Simonsen.
For the team is worth the stability: have the same coach since 2000, which succeeded in giving to his team a very unique style.
There is great respect between the coach and players, who have adapted well to the 4x3x3 system, that Morten Olsen brought from his days in Ajax.
If stability is the strong point of Denmark, the same can not be said of the options for the team: if Bendtner, Daniel Agger or Eriksen are injured, the whole team will do very impaired.
With only 15 goals, Denmark had the second worst attack of the teams selected for the European, just ahead of Greece (with 14 goals).
One of its positive points is the strength of the team as a collective. On the other hand, being the least favorite of the group, has nothing to lose and not much pressure on themselves, so it was that they won the title in 1992.
The Netherlands:
Let us now the second country in this group with more appearances in Europe, after Germany, and a big favorite. The main problem of the Dutch team is defense, except the goal, which is well defended by Stekelenburg.
The problem in the defense is mainly in the left wing, the post of young Jethro Willems, a newcomer to the selection - so no experience in this league. However, both the center and right, are not much better served.
But the fact that they have reached the final of the last World Cup, increases the desire for a victory in this European.
On the side of the strengths of the Dutch national team, there is the experience together of the most players, who together represent the selection for a long time.
Most players play abroad, in teams where have achieved great prestige: it shows the high quality of the Dutch squad, but otherwise presents a team tired, with a lot and very stressful, games in this season.
The team has many players of high quality, Wesley Sneijder, Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie, who achieved a high level of maturity and professionalism.
Portugal:
Portugal is a team that always gets great favoritism, but at the time to do great things, is always short of expectations.
It is impossible not to talk about Cristiano Ronaldo, which can also mean that the team is very focused on individuals and missing you very much team spirit. The team has good players apart from Cristiano Ronaldo as Hélder Postiga, Hugo Almeida and Nelson Oliveira, but the low for disciplinary reasons for Bosingwa and Ricardo Carvalho, very hurt the chances of the Portuguese team.
On the positive side, Portugal is going to the european very stable, achieved with great effort of the coach, Paulo Bento, who found a very suffered group. Every effort of Paul Bento, who was succeeded in imposing his ideas and his style in time to qualify for selection for the league, is worthy of admiration.
Being in the group more complicated, can bring many problems to Portugal, but the team long ago that was not as motivated as now.
