On this day, June 24, 2014, Giorgos Samaras took the penalty kick that sent the Greek National Team into the “Round of 16” of the World Cup.
12 years later, the star of the match against Ivory Coast once again holds that historic ball in his hands and brings it to the studio of “Out of the Box Stories” on Pamestoixima.gr.
Together with Christos Sotirakopoulos and Haris Tassos (Madney), he unboxes collectible Panini cards and brings back memories of a match that went down in history.
He talks about how Fernando Santos ended up choosing him to take the penalty kick, describes his state of mind as he placed the ball on the penalty spot, while the two hosts recall how they experienced those moments.
At the same time, he reveals which team he considers the favorite to win this year’s World Cup and which team stands out as a dark horse.
The fifth and final episode of “Out of the Box Stories” also had two big surprises in store during the unboxing: including an autograph from a soccer legend and a card that’s one-of-a-kind in the entire world—leaving the hosts and guests speechless.
