I remember when people in Finland was supporting Latvia but at the same time we were depressed cause we never qualify for Euros or world cup :D But this was great accomplishment from Latvia. Good times.
One of the best Euros, this summer it will be exactly 20 years!!! Then Dynamo Kyiv fans cheered for Latvia. Then Verpakovskis played excellently, the Latvians were not given a clear penalty, and they could have won even against the Germans
Early 00s Germany had not that grat of a team, it was a transitional period from the 90s to the great team of 06-14. Look at the lineup of Germany vs Brasil 2002 and tell me if thats a finalist worthy squad
@@davidecolelli8275 It's a matter of performance not the lineup, in 2002 they had the strongest defense in the mondial, I think in 2002 they were better than 2006

If you don't know - Latvia football never had much support in Latvia. I think Latvia and Lithuania is only national football teams who don't even have they own National football stadium. And in Latvia there is zero 4 star UEFA level ranking stadiums. Largest stadium have 10 000 seats I believe - and last time there was full stadium of fans was - hmmm... I believe at least some 10 years ago. But Thailand GDP per capita is below Latvia, poverty in Thailand is far more bigger then in Latvia, by EPI (Environmental Performance Index) - it is something like Greenest country in World - then Latvia by ranking in 2022 is now 37 place in World, but Thailand 120. So we care more about our children's future and place where they will live not about in what ranking place our football team is now or been in 2004.

Greetings to Latvia, from Lima, Peru!
2:08～Great shot from Verpakovskis' dribble.
With VAR in place already then, 3 clear penalties for Latvia. This ref was just disgrace. German defenders were allowed to do whatever they wanted.
Finally someone uploads highlights from this match. Thank you.
Such good quality 🙂

I'm wondering how a great team like Germany who reached final in 2002 couldn't qualify to second stage in Euro 2004
