Advocatt ensured that the polar bear qualified in the difficult qualifying group, and the basic lineup of the team was still dominated by the 2008 European Cup. Arshavin is the biggest star, and ZaGoyev has a strong attack. Together with the berezovsky brothers, the Russians are looking forward to repeating the glory of the European Cup four years ago.

Brukner's golden age has passed, and Nedved, Baroche, Popovschi and others have become memories. The Czech Republic passed the qualifiers, Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech is one of their most famous stars, and Arsenal's Rosicky is another big name.

Goalkeepers: Cech (Chelsea), jaroslav drobny (Hamburg), thomas gray Gaal (Teplice), Jan Lastuvka (Dnieper).

Past achievements: 1972 (champion), 1976 (runner-up), 1980 (champion), 1984 (group match), 1988 (fourth place),/kloc.

It's amazing to score 34 goals in the qualifiers. Germany is obviously better than the World Cup in South Africa. Bayern center Gomez also began to find a feeling in the national team. Real Madrid's Ozil and Khedira, as well as Bayern's Schweinsteiger and Muller, are top European stars. Of course, there is a tradition that Germans are always very popular in competitions.

Goalkeepers: Neuer (Bayern), Weijser (Bremen) and Ziller (Hanover 96).

Head coach: bento; Key star: cristiano ronaldo (forward)

Past achievements: 1984 (fourth place), 1996 (quarter-finals), 2004 (runner-up) and 2008 (quarter-finals).

It is difficult to advance the qualifiers. The head coach Bento has many contradictions with Carvalho, Bosingwa and others, and the defense seems to have serious problems ... but the Portuguese's hope can be pinned on Cristiano Ronaldo. Real Madrid's star players must play at a high level if they want to make a difference in the European Cup. Of course, Chelsea's meireles and other stars also have considerable strength, but no one can steal Cristiano Ronaldo's starlight.

Goalkeepers: Patricio (Sporting Lisbon), Eduardo (Benfica), Beto (Cluj).

The defeat to Sweden in the last European Cup qualifier ended the terrible record of the Netherlands in regular competitions: 22 wins. Before that, they lost in the official competition or the World Cup final, which is enough to show the competitiveness of the Orange Legion. Arsenal star Van Persie is in good shape, and Inter Milan Sneijder, Liverpool Kuyt, Van der Vaart and Huntelaar are all very strong. Although they lost to Germany in the warm-up match a few weeks ago, the Dutch still believe that they can do better than the World Cup in South Africa.

Goalkeepers: Stekelenburg (Rome), crull (Newcastle), Worm (Swansea).

Past achievements: 1964 (fourth place), 1984 (fourth place), 1988 (group match), 1992 (champion), 1996 (group match), and

Danes are familiar faces, such as Bendtner, Romedahl, Poulsen and Agger, but the most interesting one is Eriksson, a new face, whose performance in the European Cup will attract the attention of many big European clubs.

Goalkeepers: Thomas Sorensen (Stoke City), Stimson Anderson (Ivan Tonon Gaillard) and Anderson Lindegaard (Manchester United (Weibo)).

Defenders: Daniel argyle (Liverpool (Weibo)), Andy Birant (Los Charente), Simon Kyle (Rome), Lars Jacobson (Copenhagen), Daniel Watts (Yvonne Gaillard), Simon Paulson (Mi Dilante) and Oko (Los Charente).

Past achievements: 1968 (champion), 1980 (fourth place), 1988 (fourth place), 1996 (group match), 2000 (runner-up), 2004 (group match)

Perhaps the performance was not convincing, but Italy still got the final seat ahead of schedule, Pirlo was still a metronome, and new faces such as Juventus' bonucci and Inter Milan's Ranochia brought freshness to the team. Of course, the most striking thing is Manchester City striker Balotelli, who is the focus of attention inside and outside the stadium.

Goalkeepers: Buffon (Juventus), Sander Coe (Napoli), Sirigu (Paris Saint-Germain), Viviano (Palermo).

Defenders: abate (AC Milan), bonucci (Juventus), balzaretti (Palermo), barzagli (Juventus), Boccetti (Kazan Ruby), Astori (Cagliari), chiellini (Juventus), Cresset (Zenit), Marjorie (Naples), O 'Bona (Turin) and Lannokia (Inter).

Past achievements: 1964 (champion), 1980 (group match), 1984 (runner-up), 1988 (group match), 1996 (top eight), 2000.

The best in Europe and even the world is obviously the biggest favourite to win the Delaunay Cup. Bosco inherited the team from aragones and completed the promotion. There are plenty of midfielders, and stars such as Xavi, Iniesta, Alonso and Fabregas shine. Although Villa and Torres are not satisfied with their respective clubs, they still have attacking options, such as Silva, Lorant and negredo.

On May 27th, Bosco will announce the final list. As Chelsea will play the Champions League final in May 19, and Barcelona and Bilbao will play the King's Cup on May 25th, Mata, Torres, Lorant, Muniain, Iola, Xavi Martinez, Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas, busquets, Tiago, Valdes, Pique, Pedro, Diego, Diego.

Group c: Ireland

Head coach: trapattoni; Key star: robbie keane (forward)

Previous record: 1988 (group match)

The Italian coach led the team through the play-offs. His team still relies on some old faces. Robbie keane was in high spirits after helping the Los Angeles Galaxy win the Major League Baseball championship. In view of this, richard dunne, Doyle and others will be his helpers in the European Cup.

Group c: Croatia

Head coach: bilic; Key star: modric (midfield)

Past achievements: 1996 (quarter-finals), 2004 (group competition), 2008 (quarter-finals).

England missed the European Cup four years ago, and this time it was through the play-offs that they advanced to the final. Croatia seems to have regressed compared with that time. However, any team with stars like modric and Klanyi Card should not be underestimated.

Goalkeepers: pletikosa (Rostov), Subasic (Monaco), Kelava (Dinamo Zagreb), Blazevic (Split hejduk).

Defenders: Kolluka (Tottenham loaned Leverkusen), Simunic (Dynamo Zagreb), Sil Denfeld (Frankfurt), Srna (Miner Donetsk), VolSalicco (Dynamo Zagreb), Vader (Dynamo Zagreb), pranjic (Bayern Munich), Lovren (Olympiacos), Burjat (Haifa Maccabi), Stirnic.

Past achievements: 1968 (third place), 1980 (group match), 1988 (group match), 1992 (group match), 1996 (fourth place).

Capello's reputation lost in the World Cup in South Africa can only be recovered by an excellent European Cup. The Italians changed the England team. Wilshere, ashley young, Parker, phil jones and others have injected new blood into the team, while the backbone forces such as Terry and Gerrard (if recovered) are still there. Of course, Rooney, Manchester United's top star, will miss the group stage because of suspension, but Capello is still looking forward to his performance in the knockout stage.

Goalkeepers: joe hart, Green, Rudy.

Defenders: Glen Johnson, phil jones, Cahill, Terry, Lescott, Baines and Ashley Cole.

The new coach made Sweden recover from the low ranking of 43rd place in FIFA, and now it is back to18th place, and the performance of beating the Netherlands in the qualifiers is eye-catching. In Sweden, Ibrahimovic, who plays for AC Milan, is a national hero in many people's hearts. How far the team can go depends on his play.

In midfield, talented teenager Elm and Sunderland right-back Larsson, who are favored by Manchester United and Liverpool, will be the attack sources of Sweden. In addition, famous players such as Carlstrom and Wien Bloom will also be listed. On the front line, Ibrahimovic, a new Serie A player, led the team, supplemented by Rosenberg, a famous Bundesliga striker in Bremen, and Toivonen, a young striker in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.

Blanco took over a mess after the World Cup, and now he seems to put France back on track. Although ranked fourth in the European Cup, no one can underestimate France, and their goal should be the top four. In the lineup, Nasri and Gourcuff are both very strong, and Benzema hopes to bring his position in Real Madrid to the national team.

Goalkeepers: carazo (Bordeaux), loris (Lyon), Mandanda (Marseille).

Group d: Ukraine

Head coach: blokhin; Key star: Tymoshenko (midfield)

Previous achievements: Never participated in the European Cup finals.

Crane beat Fabio Capello's England team and they could be a real threat at home. Former Soviet striker blokhin hopes to seize the opportunity of the European Cup and go as far as possible. In the team, Shevchenko is still the captain, but the key figure on the field may be Jimo Shechuk of Bayern, and others who need attention include attacking midfielder Nazarenko and striker Milevschi.

Goalkeepers: Bandura (Donetsk Metallurgy), Ger Yanov (Kharkov Metallurgy), Koval (Dynamo Kiev) and pyatov (Donetsk Miner).
