Would you say that Nottingham Forest has more pedigree than Manchester City? I mean, Notts won the Champions League after all.

The head to head means nothing when you play us after we went through 4 year war and all our sporting infrastructure was destroyed. All that is relevant is now, and in the last few years you have finished 6th place in qualifying group and below Bosnia in WC group qualifier. How can you call us a "backwater" with those results?

There are a hundred factors that affect the outcome of a football match, none of them went your way in the last campaign. You were top seed and finished 6th place, losing to one of the worst teams in Europe twice. Furthermore, in the World Cup qualifiers you finished below us and we beat you 3-1 at home. You lost to Luxembourg in a friendly and you needed a 95th minute goal from a foul throw to score in last nights game. I mean no disrespect, but the poster on here who said that we are a "backwater and always will be" should perhaps look at himself first.

How? Any neutral who watched the game knows that this isn't true. Not to mention the goal came from a foul throw. I think a draw is a fair reflection of the game. Is and always will be? Can I ask what makes Greece better than our team? Did you not finish 6th place in your qualifying group for Euro 2016?

Thanks for your words in response guys, I am aware that 99.99% of you wouldn't do something like this stupid banner. I enjoyed the game overall and thought that Greece deserved to score after Mitroglou's two shots but it obviously sucks from my point of view :D. On another note, Belgium seem to be completely massacring teams at home. Good luck over there.

I don't like to get into these kind of things, but your fans brought a banner mocking the Bosnian genocide: Either way, congratulations on the draw. Never been more heartbroken after a game before than this... See you in Zenica.

well, your entire stadium definitely booed our anthem this time. anyway, good luck guys, may the best team win.

http://www.oddschecker.com/football/world-cup/greece-v-bosnia-herzegovina/winner the odds for bosnia have fallen from 2.9 to 2.55 on bet365, no idea why.

You are very pessimistic, in our media and fans we are also very pessimistic and think Greece will win :D. Wait to see what happens, I suppose. I should just highlight that anyone who watched our 4-0 loss to Belgium shouldn't be nervous about this game.

Hi guys, I have checked the odds again and they are now 2.80-3.25-2.80! This game is very much a 50/50, decided by a moment of brilliance or who wants it more on the day. Good luck!

I think Greece is a better team than Bosnia. You are of course favourites for this game according to bookmakers.

I should clarify that I am a Bosnian fan, just came to this forum to see your insights before we play this game. I personally have nothing against Greeks at all, that would be wrong, just looking forward to a good game of football. I don't remember the 'strong anti Greek reactions' you are talking about, I don't believe many people think badly about Greeks in our country. I had a great time when FK Sarajevo played Atromitos 2 years ago.

There is no need for these kind of comments. Bajević is born & raised in Bosnia and spent his best years in Velez Mostar. He's just coming to see his friends (Bazdarevic) and country. His ethnicity is Bosnian Serb, for the record.

The new manager seems to like playing long-ball tactics. If that's read and neutralized then Bosnia loses its threat in attack. Why not? :/ I think it's quite an even match up - 50/50. Both Bosnia and Greece are average European sides and a lot will depend on who wants it more on the day. A draw wouldn't surprise me.

Yes, because we're not allowed to score from corners? Set pieces are also valid goals, and if we can take good corners, that will score you goals. Anyone who says that was a "non-existent penalty" has no idea about football. Don't most goals come from poor defending and "poor keeping"? Not every goal is a 40 yard screamer. If you can exploit the defense then you will. Bosnia also hit the woodwork 3 times, should have had another penalty and the keeper kept them out a few times. We've just come off a campaign where we came bottom of the group, lost to the Faroes twice, lost to Bosnia only 3 years ago quite convincingly and suddenly we're spitting on them? A 4-1 against Gibraltar is not an amazing performance.
