Euro 2004 predictions - knock-out phase

[Serb]

Greece is the champion, my friend,
and Russians can't play ball very well,
Greece is the champion, Greece is the champion,
Russians are crying, but Greeks are the champions...
Of the Europe!



Life sucks.

Hellas!!!

Portugal - Greece 0-1

European Champion: Greece
Second place: Portugal

Topscorer: Baros
Second place: Rooney, Van Nistelrooij

Bloody hell, what were the odds of that happening?

For Greece winning the cup the odds in the international gambling houses were 100 to 1, which is what makes the victory even more special.
Although for someone actually watching football he could see that a team which has 18 straight wins (IIRC) before the cup begun has some chances.

Although noone could think we would get a draw with spain and beat Chechia, France and Portugal twice. If anything, this thread's predictions can attest to that as well

Erm, we trounced you 4-0 just weeks before the tournament. And it could just as easily have been seven or eight to nill had we not played so poorly...
