Greece shocked the football world in 2004 by beating Portugal to be crowned European Champions. The Greeks then disappointed at Euro 2008, but this hasn't affected head coach Otto Rehhagel's confidence. The successful coach is confident that his men will qualify for Euro 2012.
"We have played against all our rivals in Group F, except Croatia, in recent qualifying competitions. Theoretically, Croatia are the strongest team but we shouldn't underestimate the rest," said Rehhagel to uefa.com.
"It's a good group for us and we will fight for top spot or at least second place, which would give us a shot at the play-offs. In crucial matches recently, Greece's players have shown enthusiasm, passion and have got the desired result.
"However, right now we are completely focused on the World Cup, where we intend to do well."
Greece will lock horns with South Korea, Nigeria and Argentina at the 2010 World Cup.
