As Euro 2012 starts to get interesting with the final round of group games, Sport-locker.net grabbed a brief chat with Germany’s Bastian Schweinsteiger ahead of his match against Denmark.

And after a convincing win against Holland in the second group game, the 27-year-old is hoping for a similar performance against the Danes.

He said: “We were pleased with our second game against Holland, they are one of the best teams in world football – they have a great balance of players across their team and great experience with a number of players with over 50 caps so it was a good win for us.

“The third game is against Denmark who we’ve not played against for a few years but they qualified strongly. They’ve got some good young players in their side and we’ll be wary of them.

“The opportunity against Denmark is similar to that against Portugal, we’ll be aiming to contain their attacking players whilst keeping plenty of the ball and feeding our forwards and wingers.”

And despite seemingly coming through the so called ‘Group of Death’ unscathed, Schweinsteiger is aware of other threats still in the competition.

“We played against France before the tournament and it was an interesting game. France beat us at home this year and they were really impressive, they moved the ball very quickly and their attacking players caused us some problems,” commented the German.

“I play with Franck Ribery at Bayern so I know all about his quality, they also have the likes of Jeremy Menez, Florent Malouda, and Samir Nasri who are all great attacking talents – I think France will be a team to watch in the tournament.”

The midfield general wasn’t too sure, however, what one player will emerge from Euro 2012 with an increased reputation.

He said: “In terms of players, it’s very difficult to pin down who you think will have a good tournament. There have been players who have had great seasons across Europe, but there is also usually a player who emerges at the tournament – though that is difficult to predict!”
