Greece advanced to its first World Cup in 16 years on Wednesday, beating Ukraine 1-0 after Dimitrios Salpigidis' first-half goal in the second leg.
The Panathinaikos striker scored in the 31st minute after receiving a pass from Celtic forward Georgios Samaras to give the Greeks a 1-0 win on aggregate to reach next year's tournament in South Africa.
