Holders Greece Knocked Out By Russia

Russia beat Greece knocking them out of the Euro 2008. Konstatin Zyryanov scored the winner for Russia from close range on 34 minutes after Antonis Nikopolidis's mistake.

Holders Greece didn't light up the competition and deserve to be going home early. Russia must now beat Sweden to qualify for the quarter-finals in a must win game for either side.

Result

Greece 0-1 Russia

Holders Lose To Sweden

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored his first goal for Sweden since 2005 with a stunning strike on 67 minutes. The second goal was scrambled home by Sweden's Petter Hansson on 73 minutes. Greece are apparently the current holders, but on this display they looked nowhere near the team that shocked Europe four years ago.

Basically Greece's involvement in the competition is over and I can't see them qualifying. However, Sweden's chances have been given a boost and they have a good chance of getting a result against Russia.

Result

Greece 0-2 Sweden
