Matt is a legend for our team. He scored a few but important goals during 2009-2010 season. He was a fox in the box.
He scored 2 goals against AEK in the cup final, despite hurting his head and playing with a bandage. His second goal was in the last minute and led the game to overtime. The match ended 4-4 and Olympiacos finally won 15-14 at penalties ( one of the best games I've ever watched ).
The reason why Olympiacos fans love him so much is his winning goal against our big rival Panathinaikos in the same season during the second round of Superleague. Olympiacos was in bad shape back then and we had already lost the champiomship, but this game was important for us. Matt scored the winning goal inside Panathinaikos' field ( in a very hostile enviroment ) , leaving 60.000 rival supporters still and silent like statues. The feeling after this goal was more worthy than the whole championship.
He also scored a few goals next season and then he left. I don't know why he didn't fulfill his potential in England. I think he plays in Cyprus now.
There's only love for Matt in Olympiacos!
