20世紀70年代的荷蘭軍團以精準的傳球著稱，為他們標志性的全攻全守足球戰(zhàn)術(shù)博得了這樣一個綽號，這個綽號是對荷蘭國家足球隊球衣顏色的體現(xiàn)。
AUSTRALIA: "SOCCEROOS"

Journalist Tony Horstead coined the portmanteau of a nickname in 1967 while covering the team's goodwill tour to South Vietnam, borrowing the back end of the name from one of Australia's best-known inhabitants.

GREECE: "PIRATIKO" ("THE PIRATE SHIP")
希臘：海盜船
Though an unlikely pairing at first glance, Greek sportscasters spawned the name during a telecast of an upset victory against Portugal in the Euro 2004 tournament. The tournament's opening ceremony, hosted by Greece, flaunted a pirate ship. Inspired, Greek color commentator Georgios Halakis said the team had to "become pirates and steal the victory."
