      – Hey those kids are good at playing soccer very defensively. It kind of reminds me of when Greece got the 2004 Euro Cup under the management of Otto Rehhagel.

      – How dare you compare the two things. One was a major international professional soccer competition, that shaped a country’s sports for a generation, the other one is just some shitty kids kicking a deflated ball in a school yard.

      – Well, yea, sure but they do both win by playing quite defensively. That takes nothing away from Greece’s epic historic win, what kind of idiot would think that?
