Highlights in Greek commentary from your boy Loupnikis. Zito Ellas!

zeca is so good. he has the most spirit out of anyone there and he's not even greek LOL

Pelkas would have been useful as a sub for Fortounis today. If you would have told me this morning that the game would end 2-2, I would gladly take it. Still, the 3 points were Greece's for the taking.

As much as I criticized the coach for the mistake to start the game I give him full credit for making in game adjustments and changing the style to at the very least give us a chance.. Hopefuly now he sees unless we are playing a superpower we need to come out with speed and creativity and not just sit back and take the pressure..

I just saw a pig fly by my house

Lotta crow to eat on here about Kolovos haha

In 2 games we have created more chances and showed more attacking mindset than the in the past 3 years. Masouras kai Kolovos can help; I like Siovas btw. The one that I don't like is bakakis; we should find a better option. Fourtounis was very good; Zeka's versatility is huge.

Manolas was there we win 100%

same but tzavellas also saved our butts in the other bosnia game but didn't mean he should be starting I think if Manolas Koulouris (Donis/Masouras on the wings) started we would have won the game.

^ Yes we have to be ready of the start for Italy.. Bosnia go to Finland without Pjanic.. Dzeko was nothing today...

I think Kolovo is on the upswing in his career. That was a gutsy, hungry header. I'll wait before I pass judgement on him. He saved us today.

Samaras was also the man, as much as people hated him and called him lazy and useless, he really did offer us that little spark in creating goals.

This game will end 2 2.

He's always had the skill. Just training with the class of Benfica should be good enough technically to earn you starting role. It was upstairs that was plaguing him. Hopefully he has matured into the player that we all anticipated.

Boys Samaris looks like he’s starting to solidly his spot as a starter good for him.. For me and some of you might disagree but Zeca to me has so much heart and he hustles like crazy and you can see this guy plays his ass off for the NT...

Coach Ange sticking it to these Bosnian reporters during post game conference.. LOL!

At the time I didn't want him coming in when I saw the change.. I was wrong on that call.

looks good for us now. that was an away game. they lost pjanic for next match and we'll be much better vs. bosnia at home. I'm optimistic we'll qualify now. this was the make or break game imo.

I hope the Anastasiadis has seen now the correct team over the 2 matches. He has made many good decisions but still needs to fully commit to it. It will be crucial for the Italy match to start with the right 11!

Yes true.. If Manolas was playing in this game I think we win this game 3-1... As for BOSNIA they are not this big team that a lot of people think they are and they showed it!!!

I owe you a drink buddy! ???

Bosnia should be embarrassed to have come out with even that point. They had no right. Red card or not, the tide had turned a while ago. Their goals were both flukes. We cannot start scared anymore. Get the right players on and make a game out of it right away, for god's sake! How many times will we concede early before we wake up. Same thing vs Croatia last year.

That was unbelievable. Disappointed that we didn't come away with the 3 points, but a thrilling game for a change. If Anastasiadis comes out with the defensive scheme again vs Italy then today's comeback will be in vain. Enough with that garbage loser mentality. It will continue to plague this team. Good on the coach for going for the win in the end though.

The one thing I will say about the way they play is that this version of the ethniki def hustles more than the one from the past campaign..

Fantastic fightback, and a really good result in the end. After the first 20 minutes this one looked like it was heading for a 5-0

New favourite player. Leonardo Koutris. He could be a star player for us.

PUT ON KOULOURIS YOU STUPID COACH!!!! He is the leading scorer for the Greek league and we need a goal badly. Why would you put on a guy who barely plays in Cyprus?????

For what it's worth, I was there when Cyprus came from behind 2-0 on this very team in August 2017 to win 3-2

He's playing defensive and hoping to counter with Donis all alone....If chasing a goal, he can add Masouras/Koulouris. I would have liked to see Masouras - Koulouris - Donis.

Like can we not just have coach that fields his best 11 against a good team and says go out there and do what you do? We continously fail because the coaches keep putting the players in a position to fail.

PAME ELLADARA!!!! Will the Reddit links that were posted for the Lichenstein game work for this game?

Mitro has become obsolete with our sub par midfield.. He would be good if we had a great midfielder but in our current state his laziness and lack of speed I think does more bad then good to our team especially when we are called to play a match where we need to defend and try to catch teams on the counter.. I think our guys rely to much when Mitro is in the game and they try to force the ball to him and other teams know this so maybe a change with Kolouris and some speedy wingers we can be more effective..

they're hot heads and our players caught on to this and were trying to be extra civil to calm them down.

And Kolovos was great. I must admit I never rated him I thought that he was better than Bakasetas but that was all.

Yes, they showed great fighting spirit today like the Greece of old.. With all our KEY players we can beat Italy

listening Novasport fm

I don't see it. He wasn't at fault for anything and kept things tight all game.

Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-2 Greece FT I'll certainly take it! Good display of heart to come back!

Greece looked shaky, but to be honest, both goals were of the fluke variety. The 1st one was a block off Zeca where it went right to a Bosnian player. The next one was off a free kick. They completely outplayed us in the opening 20 minutes but we have calmed down and slowly getting our footing. I wonder if he makes any changes.

I think these coaches over think these matches.. We didn't have to play so defensive to start the game as it really F***ed us.... I had flashes of the Croatia game in this first half... Why couldn't we simply put our BEST line up and go head to head with these guys???? why do we need to play scared ffs... Masouras , Donis and Kolouris…. Use your brain coach... You tried to play for the tie and you got spanked..

It’s not the coaches fault the goalie can’t stop a free kick from a kilometre away.

We've had our chances. We desperately need a goal before HT.

Their defense is nothing special. If we could only apply some pressure we could possibly get a goal and get back into the game.

I’m glad I waited 4 months for the game to be over in 15 minutes.. lmao Armania gave them more of a challenge

it's possible we can win the midfield since we loaded it with zeca samaris kourbelis bouchalakis super weird line up though. only positive is he dropped bakasetas but i'm face palming so hard at donis solo striker. one thing that's positive is it will be hard for bosnia to score kinda dense to leave out masouras who was your starter when he assisted donis who's now your soul striker. How do coaches get their jobs lol

That is a decent lineup At least our coach isn't playing Bakasetas

Shot ourselves in the foot. 3:1 loss. With a tie we would have advanced.

I think Mitroglou is a misfit in this scheme. Not a big loss. He's lazy and his play is uninspired. We don't have someone in the midfield who can distribute the ball well enough to have a poacher in the lineup.

looking back at that 0-0. brutal. we had 0 shots on target. they had 6. we also had a stronger backline in stafylidis sokratis manolas and torosidis. we're hurting with injuries there's no room for error here and not starting koulouris and startin bakasetas on the wing again is what I fear. I really hope we see this koulouris donis fortounis masouras zeca samaris/kourbelis koutris siovas sokratis bakakis vlacho if stafylidis (lb) retsos (rb) lazaros (rw) mitroglou (st) kpaps (cb) manolas (cb) were available I'd start them in place of what we got also won't happen but fetfa (rw/lw) and holebas (lb) but yeah i'll keep that to fifa lol

Hi there everyone, I'm always looking forward to games against Greece, because I know it's gonna be tough and interesting game that brings out the best out of players. May the better team win tomorrow! Good luck!
