[Football] Does Our Anfield Triumph Top Greece and Denmark Winning the Euros?

[Bombadier Botty]

The unfancied Danes and Greeks shocked and rocked the footballing world to its very foundations when they won the Euros in 1992 and 2004 respectively. Have we now gone one even step further with our 2021 away win at Anfield?

I think it's an even more incredible result than when Leeds won the European Cup.

Nowhere near as big an upset as Denmark or Greece.

Wot no poll?

Footballing comparisons don't do it justice. This is man on the moon, atom splitting, Renaissance, Hannibal marching over the Alps level stuff.

It was 8 to 1 before kick off

It was a decent win. But hardly one to rock the world of sport

No Liverpool were tired after playing exactly the same number of games as us recently and Spurs were sad. We got lucky against two teams on a bad day, obviously

Not that impressive at all

I think Denmark played some nice stuff, Greece were very Hughtonesque though from memory

I would say it is a greater achievement than Leicester winning the Premier League, and i don't think there are many, even Leicester fans, who would disagree. For one thing, they lost 3 games that season and we didn't even drop a point on Wednesday.

Seem to recall Greece winning the Euros by scoring about three goals in the entire competition, all of them from corners. So yup, our triumph at Anfield is right up there with the very best of upsets

No. We drew with them, they were weakened and we’ve always done well.

Tactical masterclass by Potter, but when we matched up prior to the game I was confident of a point.

No.

No comparison given the win at Anfield was one game, against a series of games in a tournament.

I know that in these Covid times TV dictates when matches are played but 8 minutes to 1 o’clock in the morning kickoff is ever so slightly taking the piss.

I think it outshines 1966, the Rugby World triumph whenever that was and the Botham Ashes series combined.

Well, yes. Obviously.
We all expected Leeds to win the European Cup and they delivered big time

Thread's USELESS!

The trouble with threads like this is that any Liverpool lurkers on here may think we think that beating them isn't all that, and we're simply taking the piss, when actually this really is the biggest thing in football since Adebayo Akinfenwa's arse.

 

[atfc village]

no.
