SNAPSHOT - EURO 2012 Participants

Olympic Stadium in Kiev - venue for the Final of EURO 2012 

















So we now know who will be competing in the big football tournament next summer.

Here they are, listed by current FIFA ranking - important as it'll decide the seedings for the draw in Kiev on December 2.

1.Spain
2.Netherlands
3.Germany
4.Italy
5.England
6.Greece
7.Portugal
8.Denmark
9.Croatia
10.Russia
11.Sweden
12.France
13.Republic of Ireland
14.Czech Republic
15.Ukraine
16.Poland

As you can see the hosts, Poland and Ukraine, are ranked quite low, although this could be down to the fact they haven't played competitive football since the end of the 2010 World Cup qualifiers.

David Silva's Spain are rightly the team to beat













Germany are always strong at the Euros
