GROUP A :: POLAND VS GREECE 1-1
And the show begins with a bang in Warsaw! An exciting opening match with Poland completely dominating the first half. Robert Lewandowski scored the first goal of the tournament in the 17th minute with a superb header. Poland might be the lowest-ranked team but it doesn't seem that way. To me, they played exceptionally well.
Sokratis Papastathopoulos was shown a red card just before half-time, reducing the Greeks to 10 men. However they went on to score an equaliser in the 51st minute. Thanks to substitute Dimitris Salpingidis.
The second red card was shown to Polish goalkeeper, Wojciech Szczesny. Just when we thought there's no chance Przemyslaw Tyton could save Greek captain Giorgos Karagounis' penalty... He did, and became hero of the day!
In the final minutes, both teams tried hard to score another goal but to no avail. For now, they'll have to settle for a point each.
