Ingland and France are set to go in the Euro 2004.I watched the 2000 Euro Cup in France with my mother-in-law, who's a sports fan of sorts. She was ready to give up a couple of times during the last two games, so I had to remind her of a saying we have from baseball, "Si c'est pas fini, c'est pas fini". England, France set for Euro showdown quote: France has depth at every position and the talent to repeat as champions. It's starting strikers Thierry Henry and David Trezeguet – two of the world's best – could give England's banged-up and suspect defence serious fits.Henry, who plays with England club Arsenal, lit up the Premiership this season and is arguably the most dangerous striker in the game. Trezeguet is no slouch either. The Juventus star is a world-class finisher and has been known to leave a defender or two in his wake. The French attack, which includes Zidane and skilled winger Robert Pires, hopes to exploit England's flimsy back end, which will be without starting defender John Terry.
