Greece looking for a set piece or a cross into the penalty box... they don't have any creativity to attack with short passes or dribbles.

They basically never had that. Their game plan usually was to luck out an early goal and to park the bus for the rest of the game. If they are behind they have huge problems.

I know, they've been that way since 2004. But c'mon sons, there has to be some Greek players who can attack, pass and dribble. I know the Greek league is full of foreigners, but how the do they qualify for major tournaments? Beating the likes of San Marino, Malta, Faroe Islands, Andorra and such with set pieces and then holding for draws/counterattacking against the rest?

Basically yes. Sure, they have also sometimes beaten a few of the better teams in Europe, but never by many goals.

Navas having a great game.
