It looks like Spain for me this time. It could well
be a complete surprise. No on e expects them to do well. I never expected them
to win the other day. thought they wre going out. But their tika talka came to
their rescue.
– Iyno John D’Souza, Goa Velha
I strongly
believe the Spaniards will be victorious this time. I have been following the
league in that country for years. I have to admit France was my sentimental
favourite. I lived I that country for a couple and like their style of
football. I was heartbroken after they lost the other night. Now I will follow
Spain’s fortunes.
– Anthony Dias, Assolna
It a difficult
question to answer. I would say Spain and Germany are playing pretty well. I
think it will be one of them though I have a soft corner for England too.
– Savio Messias, Vasco
It looks like
England should win it. I have been a supporter of that team from the very
start. I follow the EPL and love that style of football. I like their system
they follow. I think they should be able to beat the Germans.

So Portugal and
France have been knocked out in the R16. These two were considered the title
contenders with the likes of England and Belgium among others. Such is the
beauty of this game that any team can beat any team on any given day. Portugal
was my second favorite team after England and my hopes are still pinned upon
them who’ll be facing a good German side in the R16. There are a lot of
talented lads in the English squad but sometimes Gareth Southgate’s tactics
they piss me off. I’m still rooting The Three Lions (England) to lift the
trophy.
– Kunal Kunkolienkar, Margao
I strongly
believe that if England is able to beat Germany then they will certainly stand
a good chance of winning the title. This is their best squad and they have been
jelling pretty well. The y have some decent performances so far, so I believe
they will go the distance.
– Conrad Barretto, South Goa
My favourite
team the Dutch played abysmally the other day and lost, I have been following
them for years having visited that country on a number of occasions and having
watched matches in the national league. Now I will have to go with the
Italians, they look like a settled team and look very determined. They seem to
have a good team with everyone pulling their weight. I think it will be the
Italians.
– Conal Lobo,
Porvorim
I think the
team to watch out for will be Italians. I like their system that they follow
and their take no prisoner approach. They play so well according to the
situation in the match. There are very seasoned players in the squad. They seem
nonplussed by situations. Now with the French out, the Italians can win it.
Well I hope so.
– Leander Rocha, Calangute
I am in favour
of Germany winning the tournament. I have to admit I have always supported
Portugal but now they are out. It was very disappointing. Now that my favourite
team is out I will back the Germans. I will admit if Portugal were playing
Germany, I would support Portugal always.
– Milroy Goes, Chinchinim
I am a fanatical fan of Portugal. At the
moment I have lost all interest in the tournament. I don’t believe in
transferring my allegiance to another team after my team of choice loses. I
don’t work that way. I am a one team guy.
