Croatia Victory Shortens Championship Odds

Croatia's stunning 3-2 reverse against England at Wembley has dramatically shortened their odds of winning Euro 2008 .

Slaven Bilic's side produced a classy performance to send the home side crashing out of the tournament and made a host of bookmakers sit up and take note.

The side are now 16/1 to win the tournament with both Ladbrokes and Stan James, while Germany have been installed as 9/2 favourites with Bet365.

And following the win, Bilic revealed that he thought his men fully deserved their victory. He said: "It was a great night and we fully deserved to win. Maybe a lack of concentration stopped us scoring more goals.

Bilic also accused England of being overconfident and writing off the Croats too soon: "I read in the papers that no Croatian player would start in your team. That's ridiculous. Wake up," he added.

Meanwhile, Russia, who eased past Andorra 1-0 to claim a place in the finals, are among the outsiders to claim the European crown, priced at 33/1 with Blue Square.
