Anything but a Germany vs Spain final would be quite an upset, i'm not gonna make any prediction about it's outcome though.

The German team has a lot of confidence and a great work ethic. I'm pretty sure you're right about the Germany vs. Spain final.

Spains youth team always does well but this new generation of german youths is really really exciting.

Germany vs Czech Rep. 0:0

First suprise of the tournament, Germany had a 4 score average per match so far throughout the qualifiers. Quite an amazing idea considering the image of German play. Appearantly there's a new idea forming through all the age levels though, Klinsmann ( seniour NT ), Eilts ( U21 ) and Stoeber ( U17 ) all of them sport offensive tactics. Quite successful within their limits, too.

Maybe there is hope for German football afterall. That is, if Germany would finally accept the incestuous system of assigning posts doesn't work out. Average players won't evolve to excellent coaches by the dozen.
