Costa Rica is the surprise team of the 2014 World Cup, winning two matches and drawing one to qualify for the knockout round. Despite the growing expectations, Costa Rica boss Jorge Luis Pinto doesn't want his squad looking beyond Greece.
"We have to think realistically, but we have to think big," Pinto said, via FIFA.com. "But first things first. Let's concentrate on Greece first and try to win that. ... Perhaps they didn't do well against Colombia, and against Cote d'Ivoire they only got one victory in the final minutes, but they will come onto the pitch aggressively and technically they're very good.
"They don't have many shortcomings. They can also play a very complex counter-attacking game. ... We've done our homework into how they play and we have a wealth of information on the team and its players."
Greece overcame their opening 3-0 rout by Colombia to draw against Japan and pull away with a 201 win against the Ivory Coast, enough to qualify the Greeks for the last of 16.
Greece already has made history by reaching the knockout round for the first time, and boss Fernando Santos knows to make further history is a difficult proposition with who they're playing on Sunday.
"I expect it to be a very tough game," Santos said. "They've already shown they are a strong team, and team is the operative word. Collectively, they are very effective."
