David Hytner witnessed Greece making history on an emotional night at Wembley. Here’s his report. Thanks for reading this MBM.

As for the other game in Group B2 … FULL TIME: FINLAND 1-2 REPUBLIC OF IRELAND. “Heartbreak for the home side, as Ireland turned things around and won 2-1 against the Eagle Owls,” reports Kári Tulinius. “Liam Scales headed in a fine Robbie Brady free kick, and the latter was then the beneficiary of a cross from Festy Ebosele. Heimir Hallgrímsson seems to be getting his ideas across, as this was very reminiscent of his Iceland.”
