In the summer of 2004, audiences looked on in disbelief as the Greek National Football Team, a country that had never previously won a single match in... a major tournament, took down the giants of world football to become the unlikeliest of European Champions.

After accomplishing every major success in Germany, he made the bold decision to leave all he knew behind and work in a foreign country with the underachieving Greek National Team. This is the story of how these two contrasting cultures came together to speak the same language and write a new chapter of Greek mythology.
