Greece 1 Czech Republic 2

Their time in Poland is not quite as chastening as it was.

Early goals from Petr Jiracek and Vaclav Pilar saw the Czech Republic revive their Euro 2012 campaign with victory over Greece in Wroclaw last night.

After 24 minutes of their opening Group A match against Russia, the Czechs looked beaten. It took just six for them to reinvigorate their hopes of reaching the quarter-finals. Jiracek put them ahead in the third minute as he ran on to Tomas Hubschman's pass to fire home, despite Greek goalkeeper Kostas Chalkias getting a hand to his shot.
