It was actually an own goal by the Greek. ;-)

Very surprising the Greeks leaving out Pythagoras and Anaxagoras for this match. A strong defensive midfield unit, it was a shock both players were dropped for a crunch tie. And the Germans leaving Goethe on the bench was also a surprise but to be honest I think he has been carrying a knock.

Epic humor from the past, where there was less freedom for most people who lived in tyranny, but they were thinking one but were afraid to speak. Now they are free to speak, but can't say a sh.t because they don't think. We all fcked up our lives with Androids.
