UEFA Euro 2008 Cup Quarter finals

First game of the UEFA Euro 2008 Cup: Germany against Portugal

Yesterday Russia defeated Sweden, and the last team entered the Quarter Finals of the UEFA Euro 2008 Cup. Now the list is complete, and today we will have the first game, where the Germans will face the Portuguese, clear favourites to win not only against Germany but the UEFA Euro 2008 tournament.

Portugal is one of our top favourites to win the UEFA Euro 2008 cup since two months ago, when we started this blog about the European football tournament. Did you already vote for your favourite?

The first game of the UEFA Euro 2008 Cup quarter finals is:

Germany vs Portugal

Both teams have played in 15 occasions with Germany performing better in 7 matches. Portugal have only defeated the Germans in 3 occasions. 3 times they have ended up in a tied game. It is worth to remember that Germany played against Portugal in the game for the third place in the last world cup in 2006. In that match, the Germans defeated the Portuguese 3 to 1.

The rest of the teams of the Euro 2008 Quarter Finals are:
