UEFA Nations League: Dimitris Kourbelis' deflected strike secured a first-ever victory for Greece against 2024/25 UEFA Nations League semi-finalists Germany, while Goncalo Ramos scored the winner for Portugal in Oslo as the 2026/27 edition on Matchday 2.

Greece's winning start to life in League A continued courtesy of a famous 1-0 victory against Jurgen Klopp's Germnay in Augsburg.

The Ethniki – who had never previously defeated Germany in ten attempts – edged in front with just over 15 minutes remaining thanks to a deflected strike from substitute Dimitris Kourbelis following a sustained spell of pressure from the visitors.
