At the start of ‘
King Otto‘, the German football legend Otto Rehhagel makes himself comfortable on his throne-like chair and tells his off-camera interlocutor in German: “I don’t understand what’s going on here.”
This confusion comes off as the motif of how history played out… when in 2004, against astronomical odds, Greece won the Euro Cup!
But let’s rewind to three years before that, back to 2001. At that time, new president of the Hellenic football Association, Vasilis Gagatsis, hired decorated coach Otto Rehhagel to whip the national team into shape.
The “travelling circus”, Gagatsis said referring to the team, had never won a game, or a single point in an international competition. They approached football with the same attitude Greeks generally approach life, with a focus on good times.
