So, tomorrow at 21.30 the final game in the historical tournament for Estonia (our first time to host such thing and play in the final-tournament) between Greece and Spain will be played. (You can watch it from Eurosport) What do you think, who will win it?

I support Greece (from the Lilleküla Arena), because I am a bit tired of Spain`s domination (no offense), although probably they will loose. We will see.

Anyway, have you been following this tournament? I for example have visited 5 games so far (all games of my country, plus FRA-ENG and POR-SPA). Wanted to visit more games, but due to work I couldnt. 38 548 people in total have visited this tournament after 14 games are played (2753 in average), what is a quite good number I would say. Of course, our football association gave out many free tickets too, about 30k or something, but still. Hopefully tomorrow there will be as many people as there were at EST-POR game (6691), what was our first game, so there will be a right atmosphere.

Although Estonia didnt manage to jump over his shadow, we still made a decent tournament - no big defeats and scored a goal. (0:3 against Portugal - our players were nervous and made two stupid mistakes (one owngoal after corner kick by the way), Portugal`s last goal was beautiful; 1:4 against Greece - after our goal Greece managed to answer quickly in the last minute of the game. In general it was a good game for us. And finally 0:2 against Spain - due to good discipline in the back).

A better forum for this topic would be Forum Football International (en) I think ;)

Anyway, I voted Spain.

Haven't seen any matches, but followed the results. Greece look far more impressive than their regular side, but Spain look really well-balanced. I tip Spain.

Spain-France should've been the final, really good game and two best teams imo.

I will be surprised if Greece gets even close to the gold.

borkos, they're getting a lot closer to the gold than all of the other nations in the tournament, bar Spain. :P

If Jésé and Deulofeu stop being so selfish, they can become big names in football

What can I say. A deserved victory to Spain U19. Congratulations!

PS! I really liked how the Spain players celebrated their victory.

I was also positively surprised to be a part of so many spectators (7864), who were on the arena. So, it means 46 412 people in total (3094 in average) watched those 15 U19 Final Tournament games from different "venues" in Estonia. (And starting from the year 2000, only 5 countries had bigger spectators number in total and they are bigger (football) countries and nations than we are)

Now, if we could start improving the number of people, who watch our local football league, then... :I (Last season it was 36 546 from 180 games, lol...)

But hopefully things will get better in our club level too... Hopefully!
