Greek Football terminology includes loans from languages of countries with a tradition in football. We examine the language and terminology related to football as it is reflected in Greek dictionaries. Our goal is to talk about the most important lexicographic issues related to football. We look into the entry list and the information inside the entries and we focus on instances of mismatch between the Greek and the English language. For a lexicographer it is a challenging task to keep track of linguistic changes regarding football and to compile entries which will describe the linguistic reality as accurately as possible.
