I don't particularly like watching Greece, but if it was my team, I'd be loving it.
I got shat off watching them give away frees and earn all those yellow cards in the first half, as it reminded me of the 2-2 draw Greece had with England in 2001 and the amount of free kicks they conceded outside the penalty area in Beckam's range, like about 10 of them which eventually Beckham finally netted one of them. Having said that, the second half I was happy with the tactics Greece used.
