Uhh, yeah Greece won, but at what cost? If every team played like Rehagel has taught them to play, hardly anyone would watch soccer anymore. Their tactics are just lame. If it was CS they’re playing they would have been flamed off the server a long time ago, branded “campers” by the entire community. The ball was in the greek half like 80% of the time, but not even Ronaldo or Figo can dodge 5 greek players coming at them. The only fun part of the game was when the goofball ran onto the field and 7 or 8 security jumped on him 😛 Bottom line: Portugal shoulda won - thank you for your attention ladies and gentlemen. ---

What do you mean, Portugal should have won? Don’t you have to score to win a football matct? :h: Everybody says that Greece plays the defense, and I’m not sure I agree. The have a really strong defense, and they use it as a starting point to score. Once they’ve done that, of course they’re going to try and hang in there! This is the Euro Finals, not your local tournament!! And anyway, Italy has been playing like this for 1 billion year, nobody complained, so please, a little bit of respect for the Greeks 🙂 And Darn you, Berkowitz! 😛 ---

thank u for ur cooperation 😃 Well If money were involved in the bet I probably would chose portugal but I thought Greece had a very good chance bacause they already eliminated France and Spain with the same formula, so, why not Portugal? Enjoy ur new sign Ruff! :thumb: ---

That was there game plan and they stuck to it, be fair to them, look at the teams they went through to get there!? Portugal x2, Spain, Russia, France, Czechs, give them a little bit of credit.[/color] well, let me explain: my respect goes out to the most offensive, thus playing the nicest football, team. ok, greece might have eliminated some great teams, but if you look at their game, it’s neither offensive, nor beautiful, you might even say it’s pretty cowardly. they have come to the finals and even won the finals playing f\*cked up, uninteresting, boring as hell football, and that’s why i don’t think they deserve it. you gotta be honest; playing on the counter, and playing defensive isn’t just that attractive as the game portugal plays. greece may have won the cup, but deep inside i know who deserved the cup, and that’s my opinion… [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/greece-is-europes-champ/115027.md?page=2)
