Germany vs. Greece Live Stream: Online Viewing Info for Quarterfinals

Jessica MarieJun 7, 2018

The most dominant team at Euro takes to the pitch on Friday for their quarterfinal matchup. The only thing to say is: Greece, thanks for playing. 

Germany was the only team to win all three of their matches in the group round and came out on top of the "Group of Death," whereas Greece—the second-place finisher from Group A—managed a win, a loss and a draw while scoring three goals in three games and allowing three. 

It's going to take an upset of epic proportions for Germany to lose this quarterfinal matchup, but if Greece can play the defensive game of their life...anything could happen.

Betting Odds (via Bet365)

Germany takes 3/10 odds into Friday's matchup, and for good reason. In their first three wins over Portugal, the Netherlands and Denmark, they tallied five goals while allowing two.

This is widely considered the best team at Euro 2012, so for them to lose to Greece would be a gigantic upset.


Biggest Storyline: The Political Matchup

For Greece, this isn't a game that's just about football—it's about beating the nation they blame for their own joblessness and economic recession.

After Greece's recent economic collapse, Germany's government forced them into strict austerity measures in an attempt to bolster the Eurozone. Now, many Greece football fans see this game as a chance to get back the Germans, in a way—to punish them for saddling Greeks with unemployment and poverty. 

Germany, meanwhile, sees this as an opportunity to solidify their superiority and dominance over the Greeks.

As the daily Kathimerini wrote (via FoxNews.com): 

"

Whoever thinks today's match is just a game is wrong. … To many Greeks, victory will represent the triumph of the weak against the wealth, might and arrogance of the powerful—the victim would humble his executioner. If the Germans win, they'll see it as confirmation of their diligence, strategy, talent and thrift.

"


Prediction: Germany wins 2-1

The Greeks become distracted by all of the political implications of this matchup, while the Germans do what they do best: play defense and win.
