Vagiannidis fuming after Greece v Denmark, Sporting star shines | OneFootball

Georgios Vagiannidis furious with Greece - Denmark performance; Sporting's fullback spoke to the press

Georgios Vagiannidis expressed his dissatisfaction with his teammates. Last Monday, September 8th, the Greek national team was defeated 3-0 by Morten Hjulmand's Denmark, and the collective performance of the Hellenics prompted protests from the Sporting fullback.

“Many things went wrong from start to finish. We will be more serious from now on. There is a lot I could say... These are the teams we have to compete with, and concentration is a big factor,” said the 'number 13' of the lions in statements to the local press.

“The main reason was this. We did not play the game we should have with the ball at our feet. We were tired, we didn't have a clear mind. Nothing is lost. It was a blow that hurt all of us, but the next two games will speak for themselves,” concluded Georgios Vagiannidis.

It is worth remembering that the Greece - Denmark match last Monday was marked by a 5.2 magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale that shook the city of Athens. The earthquake was felt moments after the final whistle of the match that pitted Georgios Vagiannidis and Fotis Ioannidis against Morten Hjulmand.

This season, wearing Sporting's jersey, Georgios Vagiannidis - valued at 8 million euros - participated in three matches. The fullback of the green and whites was a substitute used in all the matches he played, totaling 98 minutes and one assist.
