plato-ny Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 These 2 EuroChamp teams were knocked out of the group stages and nobody criticized them. Denmark of Euro 1996 Germany of Euro 2000 France, Euro 1984 Champ, did not qualify for Euro 1988!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but that doesn't change the fact that we are the worst team in this years tournament.Sounds like an Otto excuse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drakos13 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Greece are the biggest underdogs in the history of the sport to take a tournament under such competitive circumstnaces. And actually that Denmark WAS a football factory with the Laundrups etc....people didnt expect them to win yes thats true. But in Greece's case: People did not expect us to qualify Greece had never won a game in a tournament ever We were expected to lose every single game in the group stage..... Theres really no comparison, and no it has nothing to do with me saying it because I am Greek. The fact is we were the biggest underdog there except for Latvia.... Also notice: France in 2002 went home early, without a point, without a goal - after being the defending Euro and WC champion....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
