Basinas and Stelios G. are already starting to put there finger prints allover this team hence the positivity and unity in the squad. Koutris was impressive with his hustle and great crosses I really like how he is coming along. Zeca doesn't stop running and made a vital defensive header on a cross that was going to be headed in by the Bosnian player.

I can't understand why Vlaho did not move at all on the free kick? Reminded me of Karnezis not moving on ruiz goal vs Costa Rica but he was slightly screened. Had we played even slightly better off the start we win this game. At the end Bosnia was just clinging on. Loved Samaris belting out the Greek anthem as most there fans were booing at the time it was being played.

That's what I said alot of these Bosnians have this mentality that they are so superior in football to us when they have accomplished what one wcup appearance? As I said earlier I doubt they will ever reach a semi final of a major tournament and will never come close to what Greece did in 2004 and for a decade after that.

Fortounis is a game changer.. But he did give the ball away too much needless at times. He also had an opportunity late in the game to cross the ball in the box with three or four guys there and it went straight to the goalie almost looked like he was taking a shot? Overall second half was fantastic from the players to the coach..

We have to go into the game vs Italy without any fear off them and will be fine. Samaris was fantastic today. With Manolas back he will calm things down in the back, he was a huge loss today, I was so pissed when he got that injury in the CL game With a healthy lineup Lord willing we will be fine going forward. I think Finland will be tough test especially away were we have trouble there. Bosnia goes there next without Pjanic I can see them losing that game. Is Pjanic out 2 games for the red card?

Both stupid goals to concede the first we were not ready to defend and then after the initial shot we couldn't clear the ball. The second was very strange I dont know when I last saw something like that play, no wall on a free kick from such a dangerous position? Like you said you cant let a player like Pjanic have a free look at the goal like that. Before the game started I said a draw would be very good for Greece away in Bosnia and the way they got it was impressive. Now Greece go home and just have find a way to get wins vs Italy which will be tougher than today and Armenia who we shouldn't take lightly.

Vlachodimos should have been better, there goalie made a couple big saves. We were so disorganized at the back in the first 20 minutes making silly mistakes and giving possession away so cheaply. The game started to turn after 35th minute and on and Fortounis should have finished that chance he shot over the bar. Bosnia only had one chance in the 2nd half and they sat back and tried to defend which is there weakness..Anyways Greece could have won but we also could have lost big as well with that awful start to the match. A draw is huge for us...

When Bosnia come to Greece we will beat them if we play the same way as we did in the 2nd half and with a healthy Manolas. I think Finland maybe our biggest threat for second place in the group. If we can pull of a win with Italy then we are in a tremendous position going forward as Italy will play Bosnia twice going forward and will most likely take 4 points from them if not all 6.
