A historical sport document comes into the cinemas. This is the documentation of the football miracle at the 2004 European Championships, when a German coach and the Greek national team managed to win the title in Portugal as an outsider. The title of the film, which has already premiered in Athens, is “King Otto”. At the press conference in Otto Rehhagel’s hometown Essen, the now 83-year-old coach recently reminisced: O-TON TRAINER LEGEND OTTO REHHAGEL: “Yes, I didn’t have any self-doubts, I tackled it courageously. Now we have qualified and I have Told the boys, we have nothing to lose, only everything to win. And I was convinced. The boys were good, everyone was totally fit. I said, my defender, this Seitaridis, he was just as quick as Ronaldo, but nobody knew . But I knew that. And Delass, the 1.84 giant, the Colossus of Rhodes, he stood there and he said, who we are playing against today. The Greeks are so self-confident, the people too. Yes and then but the ball has to go into the goal of course, no, that’s good. ” Due to the incredible success at the European Championship, the coach, who was previously successful in the Bundesliga, finally became a legend and a friendship for life was established with the Greek players. A wonderful example of how well sport can connect. The film about the German-Greek football miracle can be seen in German cinemas from November 10th.
