Greece — last major trophy
Time since last trophy
Greece beat hosts Portugal 1-0 as 150-1 outsiders, one of the biggest shocks in the tournament's history, for their only major trophy.
Greece's UEFA Euro 2004 win ranks among the biggest upsets in international football. Greece, coached by Otto Rehhagel, had never won a match at a major tournament before Euro 2004. UEFA later described them as 150-1 outsiders; its contemporary final report quoted 80-1. They beat hosts Portugal in the opener, eliminated defending champions France in the quarterfinal and defeated the Czech Republic through Traianos Dellas's last-minute silver goal in the semifinal. Greece then beat Portugal again, 1-0, through an Angelos Charisteas header in the final. It remains their only major trophy; their best World Cup result is the round of 16 in 2014.
