There are an estimated 20,000 Irish fans traveling to poland. The nation will be watching all their games. Most Irish are quite pessemistic about thier chances of qualifying.
Their group has the #1 ranked Spain.
Spain has top stars at almost every position. Fernando Torres at Striker, the midfield has David Silva and xavi Hernandez who dominate the middle of any field and Febregas. Their midfield will work well agains any 4-4-2 system. Spain should go through just on talent. So it is a guess as to who else qualifies.
Italy is in the mist of a gambeling scandel in their home country. The players could rally to each other or be distracted with the constant questions. They open agains Spain so we will see how they respond.
Croatia has those unforgetable red and white square uniforms. Do not let these uniforms underestimate this team. Croatia has the injury bug: Ivo Iličević is out while Vedran Ćorluka also limped out of this afternoon's training session because of a muscle strain. Watch for winger Darijo Srna to attack from the right side with great tatical efficiency.
Ireland is a defensive powerhouse that no one wants to face. When you play Ireland who know it because of the tackeling and stubborn defense. They are now unbeaten in 14 matches. Their solid defense centers aroung Dunn in the middle. their attack will come from their wide winerrs Duff and McGeady who will place nice crosses in...however ti will be up to their FW to get a head on it since the Defence will rarely chance being out of shape. LA Galaxy Robbie Keane is the scoring machine who will drop back and go after any loose ball in the box.
