It's 20 years since Greece caused one of the biggest shocks in the history of football by winning Euro 2004.

Greece were 80/1 outsiders before a ball was kicked, and had never even won a match or scored a goal at a major tournament.

They had a two-man coaching team and a squad of unknowns, but became champions of Europe.
