The Greece national football team is the national football team of Greece and is controlled by the Hellenic Football Federation. They are the reigning European Champions. Greece's first appearance in a major tournament was Euro 80, but their first win in a major tournament did not come until the first match of Euro 2004, a 2-1 win over the hosts Portugal. The Greeks went on to win the tournament, stunning defending champions France in the quarterfinals and the heavily favored Czech Republic in the semifinals before beating Portugal a second time, 1-0, in the final. Bookmakers were giving odds of about 80-1 to 150-1 for the Greeks before the tournament !!!
