Two-time defending champion Spain and World Cup-holders Germany will be legitimate contenders for the European Championships, kicking off Friday, but host France will be the favorites according to both the oddsmakers and Thierry Henry, one of the biggest stars to ever grace Les Bleus — or New York.
Henry, who led France to World Cup and Euro titles, and the Red Bulls to the 2013 Supporters’ Shield, will work the Euros for the BBC. Asked by The Post to handicap the field, Henry tabbed France, Germany and Spain as top contenders, with his home country hoisting the trophy on July 10 in Paris.
