Germany v Poland Live

Germany face Poland in their Euro 2008 opener at the Worthersee Stadium in Klagenfurt needing to start the tournament on a positive note.

The Germans are favorites to clinch the trophy along with Portugal and Spain, but manager Joachim Low knows that they need to come into their own during the opening stages. With stars like Michael Ballack, Lucas Podolski and Miroslav Klose, the German squad wears a strong look.

Poland have their task cut out although coach Leo Beenhakker’s men have shown spunk during the qualifying stages. The onus now is to continue these splendid performances and Euzebiusz Smolarek is expected to play a major part in this campaign.
