Panathinaikos did indeed knock off Viktoria Plzen, the last Czech club in UEFA. This will help Greece inch closer to 10th place, now they need a positive result from PAOK. Olympiakos got a draw yesterday which could help a bit.

0-0 Full-time If you can't score a goal, you have no chance to win Olympiakos peaked at the wrong time to go ice cold on offense.

Second leg match coming up this Tuesday, Olympiakos will try to overturn a 2-0 deficit. Will be a challenge, but never impossible.

USA men's ice hockey team finally won it's first Olympic gold medal since 1980. This to me is the "Second Miracle On Ice" theme. Jack Hughes scored the winning goal in OT, who by the way had 2 broken teeth from a high stick by Sam Bennett, in a 2-1 victory. I was heartbroken from 2010 when USA lost to Canada in Vancouver in OT when Sidney Crosby scored the winner.

Its very unfortunate Ginnis has a history of injuries, he had the potential had he been healthy. The only medal he won was the 2023 silver World Championship.

Leverkusen earned their victory. The offside call is correct, the player ahead of El Kaabi was offside and did tap the ball in which is why the goal did not count. Olympiakos have been in poor form lately, I am not confident they will overturn this result in Germany.

0-2 good bye

I knew this was coming

Halftime 0-0

WHAT?! No goal?!

GOOOOOAAAALLLLLLL EL KAABI!!!!!!!!!!

Biancone and Kalogeropoulos are warming up and Mendilibar may put them in for Pioria and Restos, both are getting treatments.

Tzolakis makes another great save on Maza on a volley and hits the crossbar.

Martins first shot on goal for Olympiakos, saved by Blaswich

Tzolakis made a huge save on Czech international Schick in the 17th minute to keep the game scoreless.

El Kabbi is shown the yellow card early on in the 13th minute.

The first leg of the UCL playoffs will kick off in Piraeus, Greece Olympiakos defeated Bayer Leverkusen in the league phase 2-0, they will need to repeat the same performance to enter Germany with a lead on aggregate. Lately, Olympiakos have been struggling scoring goals. Hopefully, that can change soon.

This young man is going to be a medal contender for years to come if his form is in top shape.

Congratulations! Breaking Kenteris 400m indoor is very special.

So AJ Ginnis is our hopeful for Greece's first ever medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

Olympiakos gets Bayer Leverkusen again This tie is 50/50, I think it's doable to advance.

The last time this happened, Greece end up winning EURO 2004 : D

I found out that Olympiakos will get either Bayer Leverkusen or Atalanta in the playoff draw. I guess they do this by seeding in the order of where each team finished in the table. For example, #17 and #18 pair up with #15 and #16.

Oh my God! I am so sorry for their losses! 😞😢😭 Thoughts and prayers to the victims. UEFA really should postpone this match tomorrow, lives should come first, not the football match.

Well done Olympiakos! Consider that this was a very difficult group to play in, they survived the cut to make the playoffs as an unseeded side. If only they did not drop 2 points to Pafos, 13 points would be enough to be a seeded side in the playoffs and face a "lesser" opponent. Question Does Olympiakos avoid playing against teams (Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid) who they already faced in the league phase?
