EURO 2012, Group C Forecast by the Soccer Crusader

Posted on June 10, 2012 by thesoccercrusader

This is the group of the defending Champion and FIFA World Cup Winner, Spain. High pressures and great expectations for Spain and an opportunity to write history. Here are the group predictions from the Soccer Crusader:

Spain v Italy 4-2

Republic of Ireland v Croatia 2-2

Italy v Croatia 2-0

Spain v Republic of Ireland 1-0

Italy v Republic of Ireland 1-1

Croatia v Spain 0-2

Spain will confirm and win the group. But a surprising Ireland, a more Italian team than Italy, will fight to the last minute, almost making it through.

Posted on June 9, 2012 by thesoccercrusader

The first day of EURO 2012 has come and gone. The actual results, in Group A, are:

Poland 1-1 Greece

Russsia 4-1 Czech Republic

Russia trashed Czech Republic and showed everyone who is the favorite of the group. With the result in the other game, Russia took control of the group, for now.

Greece was able to stage a comeback and save a draw. But it looks as it’s only a question of who will join Russia.
