Greece 0-1 Faroe Islands
- Published
Joan Edmundsson's goal gave Faroe Islands a shock win over Greece and increased the pressure on coach Claudio Ranieri.
The nation ranked 187 in the world moved ahead of Greece, who slipped to bottom of Euro 2016 qualifying Group F with one point from four matches.
The only goal came in the 61st minute as Edmundsson steered in Brandur Olsen's mis-hit shot.
Panagiotis Kone went closest for Greece when he missed from six yards.
The Faroes created the better chances, Olsen hitting the post with a first-half free-kick before Frodi Benjaminsen's header was brilliantly saved by Orestis Karnezis.
The Greece goalkeeper also rushed out to deny Edmundsson - a former Newcastle youngster - with his face.
Greece, the Euro 2004 champions, have not won since former Chelsea manager Ranieri, 62, took over from Fernando Santos after this summer's World Cup.
