It's a contact sport for god's sake!

You Portuguese are a bunch of girls.

C. Ronaldo crying was the highlight of the final.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! :laugh:

[felixml]

Are we really supposed to believe that Greek team is the best in Europe today?

This was the most disappointing Euro Championship quality-wise in 30 years I follow it!!!

If everyone now will accept their style of playing who will watch it/pay $100 for a ticket...

Is the club football and all the money it attracts now the only game in town left?

World Cup is a bummer every four years it is being played outside of Europe and now this, bad news for us fans all...

Boohoo!

Now's the "contact sport" excuse!

Of course it is a contact sport!

And that is why the gk cannot be pushed/shoved!

Because the gk is the only player that can grab the ball!

That's the reason why the gk is a protected player inside his 5 meter box!

If I shove the goalkeeper he cannot grab the ball, something that the other players can't do, and by doing that I'm stealing his given advantage there!

Give me a break, will ya?!

Well done Greece! I enjoyed every second of the game, awesome defending with Dellas in a league of his own. Also impressed with how they closed down Deco, Figo and C. Ronaldo, Portugal looked a very average side imo. Seitaridis really impressed me as well, one of the players of the tournament. I do not understand those people who cannot see that good defending is just as good as good attacking, defenders never get the credit compared to attacking players.

Also why oh why does Deco, Figo and C. Ronaldo have to throw themselves to the floor everytime they get the slightest of touches. Deco is in a league of his own there, I think he should win something for that :D.

HAHAHA you go greece well done stuffed those cheating portugese n00bs with every ref loving them and laying down on the floor for them!

LOL... yeah... Greece doesn't have any stars... that's why they play by eliminating opponent skills... Does that make them a bad team? Maybe not a good team, but smart, you must admit...

[MountainSnake]

English kids (not all), stop bashing the portuguese team. Our team is better than yours, period.

Because of that kind of arguments, your country it's unloved by a lot of others. Stop with that arrogance. You're no better than anyone. When England was eliminated I saw a LOT of nations very happy- Germany, France, Italy and others. English sometimes make fool of themselves.

We lost to Greece but we are not complaining. Our football was not enough to beat that defence.

Learn with us. We are a small country but our sympathy and hospitality are FAR BIGGER than yours.

Take OUT this picture NOW !!! :angry:

Their tactic is quite simple.

When defending, they use a double layer of 5 defenders all the time.

If the second layer gets the ball, they quickly throw her into the opposite half.

If the first layer gets the ball, they lauch a quick counter-attack basicly made of fast pace triangulations by Giannakopoulos, Charisteas and Vryzas through the middle.

Zagorakis and Basinas are used to close the wings if the opponents attacked and support the frontmen by kicking the ball from one lateral into the other.

NINJA! :ninja:

[mariusu]

tiagosilva you faked that pic..shame on you for that :p

Actually, sir... that was a screenshot from the Euro2004 site!

Speaking of that, you may also go there to see the stats, to prove yourself that the greeks were better than the French, the Czech and the Portuguese! (Yes, you can't...!):yes:

Greece wasn't the best squad in the championship.

They won because they were *smart*, like nw_raptor said.

//And yes, *smart* implies the strictly defensive tactics with a few counter-attacks.

But, I'm still proud of hosting this campionship and of playing in the final. :happy:
