Euro 2008: The Draw
Posted by evdomada on December 5, 2007
The draw for Euro 2008 has come and gone.
I have never watched the draw on television before and I don’t think I will rush to do it again. In fact I fell asleep after Zagorakis walked onto the stage as the last of the captains of the Euro champions.
Ellas has been drawn again with Spain and Russia as they were for Euro 2004 and also with Sweden. It’s not an easy group and the Euro champions will have to work hard to get through to the next stage.
If Ellas do manage to get through the group stage, they will face one of two teams from the “group of death”.
The teams drawn in the “group of death” are the Netherlands, Italy, Romania and France. The confidence gained by getting through this group will definitely be a big morale boost. A difficult task indeed for our beloved Ellas.
These are the final groups that were drawn for Euro 2008.
