História

Otto Rehhagel is a German former football coach and former football player. He is one of only two people – the other being Jupp Heynckes – who, as player and manager combined, has participated in over 1000 Bundesliga matches. In the Bundesliga, he holds the records for the most victories (387), most draws (205), most losses (228), and his teams have scored the most goals (1473) and conceded more (1142) than any other. Internationally, Rehhagel coached the Greece national team from 2001 to 2010 in the nation's most successful footballing era – during that period, the Greek team won the 2004 European Championship and qualified for the 2010 World Cup, their second World Cup finals participation.

In the summer of 2004, audiences looked on in disbelief as the Greek National Football Team, a country that had never previously won a single match or even scored a goal in a major tournament, took down the giants of world football to become the unlikeliest of European Champions. The architect behind this unprecedented triumph was legendary German football coach ‘King’ Otto Rehhagel. After accomplishing every major success in Germany, he made the bold decision to leave all he knew behind and work in a foreign country with the underachieving Greek National Team. This is the story of how these two contrasting cultures came together to speak the same language and write a new chapter of Greek mythology.
