Euro 2012

Euro 2012 – Matchday One – Dugout Discussion

We have lift off. Euro 2012 gets underway with co-hosts Poland taking on Greece for the early evening clash, before Russia face the Czech Republic in the late game in the same group. After weeks of speculation and tinkering, the Summer’s feast of football begins and we’re here to cover it kick by kick.

Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to soak up any real-time banter.

The lineups are now in and, so far, they’re going according to plan in our predicted Group A starting XIs:

Poland:Szczesny; Piszczek, Perquis, Wasilewski, Boenisch; Polanski, Murawski; Blaszczykowski, Obraniak, Rybus; Lewandowski.

Greece: Chalkias; Torisidis, Avram Papadopoulos, Papastathopoulos, Holebas; Maniatis, Katsouranis, Karagounis; Ninis, Gekas, Samaras.

Good luck to one and all!

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      You can use the drop-down menu, but only after the next game. Check in 2 hours.

        That's what I'm worried about 😐 He did that even back in 2010, though in honesty he was injured, still he's got some weird hoodoo again the Djoker.
