Poland has such an exciting team. I hope they go really far.

It's very nice for football that new quality national teams emerge, plus I love Poland.

Thanks We're also very excited about this team, but surprisingly the expectations in general aren't sky-high (like they usually were). We're focusing on getting out of the group (for the first time ever) and after that - competing on par with Europe's best. Anything more than getting out will be seen as an extra by most, though I believe we deserve to be in the top 8.

 

@ NiKKoM, thanks!

 

By the way, who do you guys predict to win it all? I think this year it's very hard to pick the favourite, as there are many teams capable of taking it all. It's much harder than it was 4 years ago.

Yeah, so hard to say. I just can't pick a winner.

Germany, Belgium, Spain and France all have about equal chance to win. Then comes England really close. After that it's a clear gap, but Croatia, Portugal and Poland all have a decent chance to win and I can't entirely rule out Italy.
