Group A will conclude today and all four teams are still alive with a chance at the knockout stage. . TSNs coverage of Euro 2012 is underway NOW with both games kicking off at the same time. Czech Republic vs. Poland can be seen on TSN while Greece vs. Russia can be found on TSN2. Watch both matches live on TSN.ca pay-per-view and TSN Mobile TV or listen to the matches live on Bell Media Radio. Match day nine will see the first two teams at Euro 2012 advance into the second round as Group leader Russia takes on Greece and co-host Poland battles Czech Republic. While all four teams hold their fates in their own hands, Russia has the advantage by virtue of collecting four points in the opening two games. Russia will advance into the second round with just a point against Greece, no matter the outcome in the other game. If they are able to earn their second win of the tournament they will be assured of top spot in Group A. Greece will also advance into the second round with a win as they would hold the head-to-head advantage over Russia if there is a winner in the other game and the goal differential advantage over Czech Republic if that game ends in a draw. The Czech Republic can advance with a victory. They can also advance with a draw unless Greece upsets Russia. Should the Czechs tie and Greece wins, then both nations along with Russia would have four points, and it would come down to goal differential to decide which two countries would advance. For co-host Poland its much more simple, win and they are in, draw or lose and their tournament is over. Russias Alan Dzagoev has been one of the stars of the tournament scoring three of the five goals Russia has used to top Group A. His third goal, which was scored in Russias second game, was cancelled out by a brilliant marker from Polands Jakub Blaszczykowski earning a point for each team. Russias rampant attack in the opening 4-1 win over the Czechs was largely muzzled by a well-organized Polish defence. "When we went 1-0 up, I thought wed get more space like we did against the Czech Republic, but that didnt happen," said Russian head coach Dick Advocaat. "We lost the ball too fast when we were going forward and they could counter. We left the field too open." If Greece is planning to overcome that Russian pressure they will need a better start than the one that felled them in their second game against Czech Republic. Greece goalkeeper Costas Chalkias conceded a goal in the third minute and sixth minute of that contest and though substitute Fanis Gekas pulled one back in the 53rd minute, they were not able to rally themselves all the way back into the game. They must now beat one of the brightest looking teams at Euro 2012 if they plan to make it into the second round. Greece coach Fernando Santos has hinted that he will make changes to his starting lineup. "There is a problem with speed, not in running but in reacting," said Santos. "Thats the biggest problem were facing, because that is something players learn young: How to react in a tight space." Key central defender Sokrakis Papastathopoulos will return from suspension for the Russia game. But goalkeeper Costas Chalkias has been ruled out with a left thigh injury, adding to their problems with injured defender Avraam Papadopoulos already withdrawn from the tournament. Poland has drawn their first two games of the tournament and now only a victory will take them into the knockout phase. They have shown flashes of brilliance in this tournament, taking the early lead in their first game against Greece and scoring on the counter attack after falling behind to Russia. In fact it is the strong defensive formation that they showed against the group leader followed by breaking and converting a rare chance that has them in any position to advance in the first place. "I think we deserve praise because all of us put a lot into this match," said goal scorer Blaszczykowski. "The tactics we set up before the match we carried out 100 per cent." The wild card team in this group has been Czech Republic, as they were torn apart in their opener against Russia yet looked so brilliant in the opening minutes of their 2-1 victory over Greece. Vaclav Pilars goal against Greece turned out to be the winner and was also his second marker of the tournament, he could prove to be a very important player against Poland in the group finale. "This was a big goal for me, and its great for the team," said Pilar. "I went in very hard to meet Gebre Selassies cross and got to the ball with my knee." Czech Republic captain Tomas Rosicky remains doubtful after injuring his Achilles tendon during Tuesdays win, he had to be substituted after the first half. There was also some doubt about the availability of their first choice keeper Petr Cech due to a shoulder injury but he is satisfied that his condition has improved for Saturdays game and said "I should be 100 per cent fit for the match. My availability is not threatened." [url=http://www.shopnflonline.net/Black-Friday-Chicago-Bears-Matt-Forte-Jersey-C...

Sitting with a CFL-leading 6-1 record heading into Fridays home game against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (4-3), Bomber players are feeling the love from fans who are thrilled to erase the memory of last seasons disappointing campaign. "Its been a lot of fun," quarterback Buck Pierce said after Thursdays walk through. "Everybodys been great. "Theres been a few meals passed my way and stuff like that. (Winnipeg is) just a generous community and it feels good as a player to give them something to be proud of." Winnipegs only loss came at home — a one-point loss to Calgary on July 14th — but the team has experienced tremendous support at the gate. Just over 30,000 fans will pack Canad Inns Stadium Friday after 500 temporary seats were added and sold for the game. The extra seats were also scooped up for the Sept. 11 home date against Saskatchewan — the clubs fourth consecutive full house. "Its been a great atmosphere to be around, probably the best Ive been around in six years," Bomber centre Obby Khan said. "All the Oh you guys are so close (from last season) have all turned into Oh you guys are so awesome." The Bombers lost nine games last year by four or fewer points — a CFL record — and another by seven points to finish 4-14. Winnipeg is on its first four-game win streak since 2003, and its the first time since 1984 the team has started 6-1. Khan and Pierce expect a battle against the Ticats, who have won four of their last five games. Friday marks the second of three games this season between the East Division rivals and a win by the Bombers would give them the edge if it came down to a tiebreaker in the standings. "We have a chance right now going into Week 9 to get the season series — thats huge, thats huge," Pierce said. "Its a four-point game. We have a good opportunity. We have a sold-out crowd, were here at home, were playing well, we have momentum. "But theyre playing well, too. Its going to be a good game with a lot of energy and I think theyll be some big plays that will decide it." The Bombers came from behind and defeated the Ticatts 24-16 in the season-opener on July 1, holding Hamilton scoreless at home in the second half.

Ticats quarterback Kevin Glenn was pulled with just under nine minutes left in the game. The former Bombers pivot said hes not treating Fridays rematch as anything special. "Its any other game," Glenn said prior to his teams departure to Winnipeg. "We always have something to prove when we come out on the field — because its the nature of football, because of the nature of the sport. "You always want to win so youre always out there trying to prove that you can play and that you can win." As Winnipegs offence slowly improves, its the defence thats been the backbone so far. The group leads the league in fewest points allowed (130), interceptions (11) and sacks (29). The players even started calling their defence "Swaggerville" and have sold nearly 1,700 T-shirts since early August featuring the new moniker. The defence will get a boost Friday when veteran defensive tackle Doug Brown returns to the field after missing two games with a broken big toe. Hamilton head coach Marcel Bellefeuille said his team is preparing for Winnipegs defence as it would for any other. "We give every defence the same respect and prepare and focus on what we need to do and what we need to do well and make sure our executions where it needs to be," he said. Winnipegs lineup will also include two names that havent been on the roster sheet for a long time. Linebacker Henoc Muamba, the first-overall pick in this years CFL draft, will make his debut on special teams after returning from a knee injury he suffered in the pre-season opener. "Im not really nervous, just excited and thrilled to be able to participate in a game," the St. Francis Xavier University grad said. Receiver Greg Carr is also back in the lineup after being a healthy scratch for a few weeks after he recovered from a hamstring injury in the season opener. Carr will start in place of Terence Jeffers-Harris, who may still be in the lineup. Coming off Winnipegs roster is linebacker Marcellus Bowman, who has a case of turf toe. Merrill Johnson is expected to get his second start of the season in place of Bowman. ' ' '
