That’s why they play the games. You’re right. No one is an easy out. In football upsets happen. Ball is round it can go anywhere. Greece tied Spain yesterday. The same Spain that destroyed Germany. Anything can happen on any given day.

Didnt we lose to San Marino or Faroe Islands? I’d say that was a worse performance ...

Tomorrow it is 200 years ago that Greece gained back it's independence. Well not exactly as it was 25 Martiou according to the Julian calender and that aquals April 6 on the Gregorian calender we have these days. Anyway, it will be celebrated as much as possible with this COVID-19.

Yep. The countries that play the Nation League finals need to have two MD's off to play that NL. Therefore a smaller group. In our group it is Spain.

I agree, Georgia seems to have improved they were one game away from qualifying for Euro 2020. They have never been easy beats like some other nations and for a team like us they always provide stern opposition. I just think back to Euro 2012 qualifying we equalised in the final 15 to get a 1-1 draw in Greece and had to score 2 late goals to beat them in the return match later in the campaign. Obviously we are talking 10 years ago, but always worth looking at recent meetings. Looking at the stats, they basically split possession (55-45) with the Swedes which is surprising, so we might not have as much of the ball as we might have anticipated. Regardless of their improved form, it is a game we simply must win. Expect to see us go back to the high pressing and trying to own the ball.

We were apparently well-organized, grabbed our single great chance and then held Spain at bay for more than half an hour. That sounds impressive I think.

Xronia polla everyone. May we remember the sacrifices our ancestors made!

I just saw that in World Cup & Euro qualifying since 2003 Spain at home have only dropped points on 5 occasions and Greece have taking points twice from them. with yesterdays draw and the 1 nil win there in Zaragoza in 2003. Very impressive.

I ended up watching the highlights between Sweden and Georgia and that game could have easily ended up in a draw as the play looked pretty even back and fourth and Georgia had a few prime scoring chances. Either Georgia is not going to be as easy as an out as i thought or Sweden just didn't have a good game at all. Greece need get 3 points here but seeing Sweden struggle to get the win against them worries me.
