Final of Euro 2012 is live today. Stay tuned to watch an exciting Final.

 

[Sidcricfan]

Go Norway! Spain deserves to lose after beating Germans.

 

[murphyslaw79]

Norway are ready to take on the mighty Spanish.

No one thought that Norway would make it past the group stages, however they arrive in the final having remained undefeated.

Riise who was a surprise choice as captain, has been a great motivator and gelled the team together.

We have looked to grind opposition down through some gritty defence and will look to counter attack.

Lets get the show started!!!!

Good first half boys, tuck into that Halwa Puri, 3 bites eat. It will keep the energy levels up

They will push even more in the 2nd half, hold your shape, be aggresive and look to hit them on the counter.

all i want is 110% in the next 45 mins and whatever the result, i know you would have given it your all.

ML takes Riise aside and instructs him to take Torres out if the score remains 1-0 after 80 mins.
