    Georgios Karagounis, Gelandang Veteran Yunani Siap Hadapi Pantai Gading Brasil, Sundul – Pemain tengah Yunani, Georgios Karagounis tentu saja akan bermain di Piala Dunia 2014 terakhirnya kali ini, mengingat usianya saat ini adalah 37 tahun. Inilah profil sang pemain. Georgios Karagouinus : Personal information Full name Georgios Karagounis Date of birth 6 March 1977 (age 37) Place of birth Pyrgos, Greece 1 Height 1.76 m (5 ft 9 ⁄2 in) Playing position Midfielder Youth career 1993–1996 Panathinaikos Senior career* Years Team Apps† (Gls)† 1996–2003 Panathinaikos 118 (25) 1996–1998 → Apollon Smyrni (loan) 55 (9) 2003–2005 Internazionale 21 (0) 2005–2007 Benfica 45 (3) 2007–2012 Panathinaikos 133 (16) 2012–2014 Fulham 39 (2) National team‡ 1996–1999 Greece U21 39 (11) 1999– Greece 136 (10) Salah satu bintang ketika Yunani menjuarai EURO 2004 adalah Georgios Karagounis dimana dirinya menjadi salah satu panutan bagi sepakbola Yunani, dirinya juga bermain dibawah asuhan Fernando Santos setelah dirinya menggantikan Otto Rehhagel. Karagounis mungkin memang memiliki tinggi yang kurang cukup untuk bermain di Eropa, tetapi dirinya terus bekerja keras dan membuat dirinya berlatih keras. Dirinya bermain baik, dan membawa Yunani lolos ke final 1998 ke EURO U-21 setelah dirinya bermain bersama Panathinaikos. Karagounis memiliki beberapa musim hebat, terutama pada EURO 2004. Gelandang tersebut juga tercatat mencetak gol ke gawang Portugal. Dirinya juga absen di final setelah terkena akumulasi kartu kuning ketika menghadapi Republik Ceko dimana dirinya terkena kartu kuning pada menit ke-87. Beruntung, Rehhagel bisa bermain maksimal memanfaatkan skuad yang ada dan mengalahkan Portugal di final. Sejak itu, Karagounis menjadi salah satu pemain Yunani yang paling banyak tampil, dimana dirinya telah tampil sebanyak 121 kali, dirinya juga bermain sepuluh pertandingan di kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2014 dimana enam dari hal itu dirinya bermain dari bangku cadangan.
