Greece played effective football today and nearly stole the show. But its teams like Russia that light up a tournament like the Euros, Eastern European teams have the ability to do that. Old Yugoslavia (Serbia and Croatia) Romania and Russia have done it over the years, ever since I first started watching football in the 1980s, what they always lacked was grit and resilience when it really mattered, but they provide skillful and tactical football.
