Markov happy being 'underdogs'

Bulgaria coach Plamen Markov is happy his side have been labelled underdogs at Euro 2004. Bulgaria face Sweden in their Group C opener on June 14 before taking on 1992 winners Denmark and much-fancied Italy.

Markov said: "The fact that they tip us as outsiders is better for us. We are going to Portugal with no big promises. It's the way we started the qualification campaign too."
