Soccer: Greece Held By Armenia: Goalless Draw For Euro Champs

GREECE HELD BY ARMENIA: GOALLESS DRAW FOR EURO CHAMPS

Reigning European champions Greece could not find the net as they
finished their warm-up matches for Euro 2008 against Armenia on
Sunday evening.

But the goalless draw at least meant Otto Rehhagel’s side do not go
into the tournament on the back of a defeat, after they lost 3-2 away
to Hungary in their previous game.

The Greeks begin the defence of their crown in Group D against Sweden
on 10th June.

They then play Russia four days later and Spain four days after that
as they seek to win back-to-back titles.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
