I'd say out of the games we've seen already, Ger-PT is the most disappointing one due to the amount of the technical ability of both teams' attacking forces. Gomez scored a nice goal, but he was misfiring so much that the British commentators were contemplating how soon he would get replaced. Russia-Czech Republic so far has been the nicest match in terms of 50-50's, both teams attacking and for conventional football spectators. Den-Holland was the first underdog story where the more attack minded, high-profile team loses but still 5 times as many attempts on goal than the winner, but a nice match. I saw Denmark as a potential odds-upsetter before the tourney and nice to see them get a win and keep the fans happy.

Also, Spain and France seem to be the blatant favourites, Holland would have been if not for injury problems, I'd love to see a dark horse win, and in this case, Russia has a great squad, very attack-minded and with the Russian premier league going up another notch and even changing their schedule to play winter games to show their European capabilities, I'd say it's a good improvement. Even the fact the might Guus isn't there doesn't matter since Dick Advocaat could be just as proficient with the right squad (like his time in Scotland with the Gers has shown)

Hard to predict the winner so early in the tournament, it would be better to see the current performance of every team before jumping to conclusions))
