MATCH THREAD: Poland vs. Greece - Euro 2012 Group A - KO 5PM

[Deloodid]

Good 1st game, at least i got points for FGS.

 

[ToffeeBlueNose]

crazy game, like watching sunday league but with a worse ref.

 

[Hibbosculturedrightboot]

two poor teams if truth be told. Arsenal's keeper was hysterically unhinged. Unlucky Greece, draw was about right though.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Tale of two halves that. Entertaining though, so a good start to the tourney!

 

[chicoazul]

Is right Hellas.

 

[Roztitute]

At least Lewandowski scored.

Stat attack: Referee Carlos Velasco Carballo showed 178 yellow cards and 16 red cards in 29 La Liga games last season. An average of 6 yellows a game. He has brandished four yellows and two reds in this Euro 2012 opener.

Must be Barca's favorite ref.

Astonishing figures.

To be fair, I think he just got the first yellow on Papadopoulos obviously wrong today.

Ref had a shocker.

Had a 2-1 Greece down as well so i'm well gutted they missed the pen. Sh*te.

 

[Allezfan]

Glad I stuck with my decision to leave the greek on my fantasy football bench. Fecker missed a penalty.

 

[Greek Fisherman]

We should have won.
