'Euro no cakewalk'
Euro 2012 will not be a cakewalk for holders Spain and in-form Germany, German coach Joachim Loew said on Wednesday, insisting other nations such as France had to be considered.
"It's not certain this match (a Germany versus Spain showdown) will happen at this tournament -- even if everyone is talking about this duel," Loew told reporters who asked him to compare his side's chances with those of the defending European and world champions.
"The Dutch, England, Portugal, France are also among the favourites," insisted Loew, although the Portuguese will have to qualify via the play-offs after Denmark edged them in the group stage.
