Angelos Charisteas: “In Portugal they still remember you” – The emotional letter of the hero of the final to the younger self

There are “goals” and “goals”. If Greek football had to choose only one from its entire history, it would be this one.

That an “Angelic partnership” of Basinas and Charisteas in “Da Luz” brought Greece its first European trophy, 20 years ago, on a day like today, July 4.

THE Angelos Charisteas “bridges” between the present and the past and addresses through OPAP to Angelos Charisteas in 2004, a few hours before he scored in the final of the finals. What would she say to him if she could hear him? How would he prepare him for scoring the most important goal in the history of Greek sports?

Watch in the following video the letter of Angelos Charisteas to his younger self:

“Letter to my younger self” starring Angelos Charisteas is the last of the 6 dedicated videos prepared by OPAP for the 20th anniversary of Portugal’s epic.
