German national team boss, Joachim Low has claimed that Spain remain favourite for the coming Euro championship despite his side being touted to win the competition. He mentioned that the reigning European champions will definitely

The tactician admitted that the German side dominated the Spanish champions in both the legs and same was the case in the first game where http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and dumped them out of the competition.
While speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the tactician further added: "I don't think Bayern's win will have any influence on Euro 2012. There will be different players and expectations. Spain remain the favourites. You have to
play some very good football to beat them.”

"We have really matured as a team and we have shown that we can play at a high level. There are more favourites, though. At least six, and two of them are in the same group as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984,” Low concluded.
