A new film is about to hit Australian cinemas, and better yet it's about one of the great football fairytales of modern times: Greece becoming European Champions in 2004.

King Otto details how it happened direct from the minds of those who made it happen, notably the mastermind, German coach Otto Rehhagel and his star players.

In a bonus edition of the Fox Football Podcast, Adam Peacock talks to the film's director Christopher Andre Marks about the process and what it was like recreating something that belongs in the realm of fantasy.

The film hits Australian cinemas May 27. Check online for where it it showing near you.

In this special interview Adam Peacock chats to former Socceroo Andy Bernal about his amazing story.

Bernal’s book “Riding Shotgun” is out now and it chronicles Andy’s rise from a son of Spanish immigrants in Canberra to the world stage - on and off the pitch.

He was the first Australian to be signed by a Spanish top flight club and from there he played in England either side of some wild times in the NSL. Then he retired and, well, that’s where the story really takes off.

Bernal was David Beckham’s right-hand man when he signed for Real Madrid at the height of the Galacticos era, before Beckham changed management, sending Bernal into a drug-induced spiral that he was fortunate to escape from.

Now happy, and ready to tell his story, Bernal’s life is one hell of a ride.

And a disclaimer, this chat does include drug references, and the odd swear word.
