Podcast: Greece’s Epic 2004 Euro Win

George Tsitsonis’s book chronicles the story of Greece’s 2004 Euro triumph

I am joined by George Tsitsonis, whose book Achieving the Impossible charts the story of Greece’s unexpected triumph at Euro 2004. We learn about the background to the tournament, how the team came together, the importance of its German coach, and the reception back home. We also ask about the legacy of that side and how it’s been remembered by media outside Greece.
