Effenberg Writes Off Spain

Former German and Bayern Munich international striker Stefen Effenberg is blatantly critical about Spain's prospects of a win over Italy in the last 8 of the UEFA Euro 2008 on Sunday.

Effenberg, who won tons of honours with Bayern Munich and is considered one of the greatest ever players Germany have had had in their entire history, has told Marca that he has no doubt as to who shall win this clash between the Spanish and the Italians.

Effenberg told Marca:

"I have no doubt's that the Italians will beat Spain.

"Spain have a great team but they are lacking the final blow. We will have to wait and see if they surprise us.”
