Intrigue is the best word to describe the whole situation. With two matches held, all the teams of Group A have equal chances to win the championship.
Russia
The best results are shown by Russia that defeated Czech Republic (4-1). However, it is just draw with the tournament host – Poland, but still Russia presents us a spectacular game with the most serious tactics if talk about the group A teams.
Poland
To gain the second entry to the quarter-final will be a real challenge. All three teams – Czech Republic, Poland and Greece have equal chances to win. The toughest match is going to be between Poland and Czech Republic. Who wins goes further determining the favourite.
Greece
Greece should pray for draw in this match (Poland and Czech Republic) to get the chance and fight for entry to quarter-final. Anyway, to enter quarter-final Greeks should try and win Russia during the final match within their group. Too many if…
Czech Republic
Czechs showed not very impressive game during their match with Russia. Moreover, Poland plays on the home ground. They will fight to death, because it is the last and the only chance to achieve the next stage in the tournament.
