Ellas coach Otto Rehhagel has admitted that the team made mistakes during the 2-0 defeat in the opening Euro 2008 matach against Sweden.

"We made decisive mistakes on two occasions," said Rehhagel.

"The Swedes pressed a lot. We failed to exert pressure ourselves. We did not have that fighting spirit at the key moments.

"The first half didn't go as we planned - we didn't play high enough up the pitch and then we lost Ibrahimovic for a moment, which left us a goal down.

"We will have to show a tougher side of us in the next match."
