if Greece wasn't down one man this game would have been theirs. Katsouranis gotta work on his timing. one man down and still attacking, defense shut down Japan, what did you think was going to happen with a defensive powerhouse like Greece. When your team needs the single point the game is going to get boring..

Who told the Greeks theybpaly football?

Greece played like the ancient heroes...but nothing more, they just kept the draw at the end, that gives them a chance to qualify, mostly hoping to already qualified Colombia to take least a draw from Japan...and a win against Ivory Coast. Greece usually plays well with African teams, remember the win at last WC against Nigeria. Anyhow, the starting hour of the game (01:00 after midnight in Greece, local time), was a great chance to get a nice sleep especially if you are tired....;-)...Greek defence was funny against Kolombia, and our way of playing is highly predictable, not leaving us have big expectations. In Euro 2004 we had also some creative game, just imagine that Karagounis was 10 years younger, and there were also some good and young players that time.

Nigeria-Iran and Japan-Greece... 2 most boring games this far in a goalrich WC

The best thing that we can learn from this match is Japan's kit still the best of the wc 2014.

Japan cannot head the ball at all. They should have known from a few crosses.

Japan's mistake was to waste most of their attacks over and over and over again crossing the ball into a wall of taller Greeks that are just 200% better at headers. I love Japan but I think today, they just missed their biggest chance to qualify. Strategic failure.

Damn,this match was sooo boring!!We played so badly even Greece played with 10 men and tried to put in high crosses when we already know that Greece dfs would clear them.I didnt see much determination from our players in this match.I dont wanna say this but I think that our world cup run has ended....

this group is very weak and poor .. italy group will beat any team in this group

well done to greece, a man down and yet they defended well and attacked. #Respect

Oh, the greeks. Always the same defendig coward football. Worst performance of a world cup team so far. Disgraceful , poor japanese.

Greece played good with 10 men. Referee was sh↑t as always. First half wrong decisions for the Greece side, 2nd half wrong decisions for the Japan side...
