About M.E. myself and I

Eastbourne, East Sussex, United Kingdom
I have been an M.E. sufferer for a long time now, but sports replay gaming is an easy hobby for me to enjoy. Originally from Canvey Island, Essex, I was introduced to replay gaming a few years ago, leading to my first purchase: Cricket World. Most sports I share will be common, but there are some more obscure replays thrown in. Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoy your stay. Feel free to say hello! - Chris

Final Score - WC2010, Group B, Greece vs Nigeria

Thursday 17th June 2010, Free State Stadium, Bloemfontein - Att. 31,593
Referee: Óscar Ruiz (Colombia)

LINEUPS:
Greece (442): Tzorvas, Vyntra, Torosidis, Papadopoulos, Kygriakos, Papastathopoulos, Tziolis, Katsouranis (Ninis 62'), Gekas (Moras 80'), Samaras (Salpigidis 59'), Karagounis
Nigeria (451): Enyeama, Odiah, Taiwo, Yobo, Shittu, Etuhu, Haruna, Kalta (Obinna 45'), Ayegbeni (Utaka 77'), Uche, Obasi (Martins 84')

A Loukas Vyntra goal was all that Greece needed to win their first match of the World Cup and stay in the hunt for a place in the second round. The only goal of this one-sided match occurred when Enyeama dropped a simple cross, leaving Vyntra with a very easy finish just fourteen minutes in. Before that Greece created a good chance on the counter that Samaras could not finish.

After a long period of little activity Nigeria tested the Greek keeper when Kalu Uche had his own free kick rebound straight back to him and his second effort was well saved. In the second half Vincent Enyeama was busy making up for his mistake by stopping shots from Karagounis and Papasthathopoulos. The Greeks did get another ball past him but Gekas watched his effort ricochet back off the post.
