PREDICTIONS
Predicting results for a tournament of this magnitude is never easy, as upsets are bound to happen and on a given day any of the relatively weak teams can defeat the so called bigger boys of Europe. However, we are predicting that the might of France, Portugal England and Belgium would be enough for them to qualify for the semi-finals this year. Having said, that we sincerely hope an upset story comes our way throughout the course of the competition and – “MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN.”
