Greece: The Ultimate Underdog Story
Greece’s triumph at Euro 2004 remains one of the greatest surprises in football history. Managed by Otto Rehhagel, Greece employed a disciplined and defensive approach, which proved incredibly effective.
Greece’s journey to the title saw them defeat holders France, the Czech Republic, and hosts Portugal in the final. Angelos Charisteas’s header in the final was the defining moment, while Theodoros Zagorakis’s leadership earned him the Player of the Tournament award. Greece’s victory was a testament to teamwork, strategy, and resilience, making it one of the most remarkable underdog stories in sports.
