Greece in a do or die match won Ivory Coast and advanced to the 16 best
teams of the world for the first time in its football history.
Andreas Samaris scored for Greece three minutes before the end of the
half time. Ivory Coast returned the goal with Bony in the 74'. A late
Giorgos Samaras penalty send Greece to the knock out stage of the World
Cup that is held in Brazil.
"The best team won" said Greece's coach Fernando Santos after the end
of the game. "The one with the best strategy, most desired and most
chances...We scored twice and we hit the bar three times...We showed we
know how to attack to. I told the players this morning that this would
not be our last match. We are very happy and know that everyone in Greece
is delighted."
Greece on Sunday will face Costa Rica in the knock out stage.
