Germany and Spain are the last two teams left at Euro 2008, and face each other in Sunday s final to decide which team is to lift this year s trophy.
Germany aim to win their fourth European cup after doing so in 1972, 1980 and most recently in 1996.
The Germans made up from two poor European Championships in which they didn t survive the group phase by making it to the final in this one.
After a 2-0 win over Poland in their opening match, Germany had more trouble against Croatia in the second and lost 2-1. But the final group match with hosts Austria was won 1-0, and that was enough to secure the second place in Group B.
The quarter final with Portugal was Germany s best match at this tournament, beating the 2004 finalists 3-1. The semi final against Tu…
Jurgen Klopp praised top talent Caoimhin Kelleher after the goalkeeper helped Liverpool overcome Ajax 1-0 in the Champions League.
Starting as Alisson deals with a hamstring injury, Kelleher became just the second goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet on his debut for Liverpool in the Champions League.
Kelleher, 22, made four saves as Curtis Jones 58th-minute goal proved to be enough to send the Premier League champions into the last 16 from Group D.
Klopp hailed the shot-stopper and said the Irishman s distribution was a key reason he decided to start Kelleher over Adrian.
Top. Top, top, top, the Liverpool manager told a news conference.
It is a situation, which I have to say, it was easy to decide for Caoimhin because he just deserves it, but it wa…
Liverpool 7-0 Manchester United: Gakpo, Nunez and record-breaker Salah humiliate Ten Hag´s Red Devil
Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah hit doubles to kill off Manchester United s faint Premier League title hopes as a giddy Liverpool rolled over their old foes 7-0 at Anfield.
The 23-year-old Gakpo, a January recruit from PSV, marked his first appearance in this famous rivalry with a pair of sublime goals, with Nunez and Salah adding to the humbling. Salah became Liverpool s record Premier League scorer and substitute Roberto Firmino also got in on the act, on what was a day of vindication for manager Jurgen Klopp.
Liverpool s German boss sees Gakpo and Nunez as vital to the team s future, and against a ragged United defence they and Salah made it a day to savour for the hosts, whose win takes them above Newcastle United and into fifth place.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino said the club would consider selling Real Madrid target Harry Kane if he decided to leave like Gareth Bale and Luka Modric.
Kane enjoyed a stellar 2017, eclipsing Alan Shearer s record for the most Premier League goals in a calendar year with 37, while he also outscored Barcelona star Lionel Messi for club and country over the 12-month period.
His exploits have reportedly attracted the attention of LaLiga and Champions League holders Madrid, who are believed to be eyeing a move for the England international forward at the end of the season.
Pochettino and Tottenham have no intention of selling Kane, though that could change if the 24-year-old sought a move to the Santiago Bernabeu, which former Spurs duo Bale and Modric now c…
