UEFA unfolds 17th team at EURO 2012

After having already published the names of the 12 match officials, who will head their referee teams at the matches of UEFA EURO 2012 in Poland/Ukraine, in last December, UEFA has revealed the full teams that will be in charge of the greatest and most popular football competition in 2012.

Even though most of the designations are no surprises at all, since they were able to be deduced by analyzing and interpretating the previously appointed teams in UEFA Champions League's K.O.
