I'd have picked Amanatidis over Charisteas. He was in a great form.

 

[alexandros]

Previous opening EURO matches with hosts playing:
1984 France-Denmark 1-0
1988 Germany-Italy 1-1
1992 Sweden-France 1-1
1996 England-Switzerland 1-1
2000 Holland-Czech Rep. 1-0
So, 4 out of 6, a draw for the home team and two very close wins. If tradition makes a point, it's gonna be tough for Portugal.
Tradition doesn't kick a ball, though, but psychology always has a say in such games.

IMO we play too defensively. I really believe that we should try a more attack minded approach. Seriously, Greece is a great ball playing team when we want to be.

But what do you expect when your coach is German.


ELLADARA OMADARA !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Hristos]

We'll just have to sit back and watch as everything happens. Hopefully it will be something to show that our spectacular efforts in qualfying weren't for nothing.

Hey that German is the reason we are in this in the first place....

I'm sensing a rout coming on however.

 

[Pontiakos]

the official Greek tour bus read on it

"Ancient Greece had twelve Gods, Modern Greece has 11"





really nice.....I hope they show it


does any one know of a listing of all of these.....I saw the Russian one but couldn't see the English version


I'm curious as to what all these say

 

[SB9Dragon]

Hopefully Karagounis does well with Greece and prove to the world and to Inter of his true potential

 

[Pontiakos]

Well this is it ...........one day left.......God be with us

 

[Hendrik]

two days left actually but good luck

 

[Punkt]

it's not Benfica FC... it's SL Benfica.

 

[Pontiakos]

a great game for both Greece and Spain .....the group is really heating up now.....

Giannakopoulos will not play the game against Russia ( out for 7-10 days)

Karagounis will not play because of yellow cards....

I hope Rehangel has some tricks up his sleeve...Russia will not go down easy

They will play for pride and they give killer passes

if they didn't play a man down against Portugal the result could have been different...

 

[Pontiakos]

Well this is it Greece is staring history in the face...and DAMN.....history is UGLY......


Greece have...........NEVER..........qualified for a quarterfinal match


......I believe
I believe
I believe.


.....regardless Greece has had a great run and has something to build upon.........


.
.
aaaaa...f*ck that...............BEAT RUSSIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gian]

i hope this will be the last topic for Greece. I am from greece and i am happy to see my team win etc. But if u put in search box greece the results will be more than 500.

And yes we can't stand in this group

 

[Pontiakos]

Well Papadopoulos showed how young he is

and Tsiartas showed what a star he is .....every one is quiet about Tsiarts now.....true class

Nikolaidis was busy covering his *ss so he can run AEK after the tournament and Charisteas was playing like he was still in the locker room

Our inexperience is obvious....France will kill us if we play like this.

 

[Pontiakos]

Big game tommorrow but once again Greece will miss key players Giannakopoulos(pulled hamstring) and Vryzas (2 yellows)

 

[Pontiakos]

Fobou Danaous

Fear the Greeks..............Homer(Iliad)

lets hope

Zidane
Anri
Bartez
Veiera
Makalele
