You guys still complaining while winning? lol

I see Greece winning 2-0

I have recalled in 2009 she refused to take a doping test and decided to retire afterwards when IOC handed her a 2 year ban.

Why is this being mentioned right now? Why not take care of this issue like 5 years ago?

Him and Spanoulis are true Greek basketball legends, but Niko Galis is the greatest one of all.

Great away victory, the best way to start the group stage.

Sounds like he is not retiring and will be playing in his 4th Olympic Game. :)

Found a video clip of the 2013 Mediterranean Games in Mersin, Turkey Kostas Douvalidis won gold medal in 110 m hurdle over the likes of Dimitri Bascou and Pascal Martinot-Lagrade. Wow!

I just want to start a topic about a Greek female high jumper who was a huge surprise in both the 1996 European Championship in Stockholm and 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. Both times she won silver medals in the women's high jump. She also won 3 gold in a not so major event (Balkan Cup) and 2 bronze and a silver in the Mediterranean Games. I recall watching the 1996 Atlanta game where she broke a national record with a score of 2.03 m. She battled with the world record holder from Bulgaria Stefka Konstadinova. Incredible for an athlete who is only 5'7". She was also in the Guinness Records for being the shortest female high jumper to pass 2.03 m (30 cm). It might have been one of the most memorable Olympic event 20 years ago. Thank you Niki!!! :)

I think mostly in track and field along with weightlifting occurs.

So are you saying that Voula Patoulidiou doped?

Greece should focus on beating Cyprus and not have this friendship kinda thing. This is what's worrying me about this draw.

I hope in this thread people will not root for Cyprus since they are playing against Greece. I understand we have Greek-Cypriots in this forum. But, we don't want Greece to drop points to a country who doesn't have a chance to qualify.

I bet Greece will not play like that again when they face Cyprus and Estonia. Those teams will punish us good if Greece bull**** around.

That rule doesn't apply anymore. All teams in each group have 6, which it evens it out.

No excuse to not score any goals in the second half, our goal difference should be way better than Bosnia and Belgium.

Yeah, I heard that his foot injury wasn't serious. What happen to Torosidis?

We just need to pray Belgium or even Bosnia are not in top form when Greece face them later.

Good, because him and Fourtounis are the only hope they can provide the scoring punch Greece needs.

Greece played so well after the equalizer, it's like a totally different style of football they played. Well, they better start playing like that from now on if they want to go to Russia.

BOOOO YAAAAAA !!!!!!!!

TELOS!!!!! 2-1!!!!!!!! FIRST WIN EVER AGAINST THE NETHERLANDS!!!!!

Absolutely! Not just for Greece, but also for Olympiakos (especially in Europa League matches)

We better hold on and win this!
