Germany
Despite their undoubted pedigree, Germany travel to the Low Countries defending more than their crown. The three-time World and European Champions have been on the wane for some time but will be out to silence the profits of doom who went to work the moment they were eliminated from France 98 in the quarter-finals.
Recent European Championship record:
Euro 96: winners
Euro 92: runners-up
Euro 88: semi-final
