Remember the Greek League used to be just a regular season where the teams finish automatically get European spots? I miss those years. I used to go crazy watching those leagues from 1995-2006.

The ref for today's match is (FRA) Ruddy Buquet

OK, thanks. So this club dedicates to the Ottoman Leader. sigh I hope Olympiakos kick there *ss right where it hurts!

Greece will do fine without him, as long as Sokratis and Manolas play.

Thanks for telling me that about Fox Soccer Plus, didn't know it was a paid subscription. I will certainly watch the return leg, hopefully you guys can get a positive first leg result.

The first leg in Toumba Stadium will be shown on Fox Soccer Plus for U.S. viewers.

Some interesting facts about our Turkish opponent, the club was formerly known as Ankaraspor, changed the name since 2014 known by nickname, Ottoman Sports.

If anybody is curious what happen to the website, it is now an organized Olympiakos football club in Chicago. When you put in the website, it actually redirects you to that website.

Guys, Greece can beat Bosnia in Zenica. Bosnia is right at the same level with us oppose to Belgium, who are world class.

Very true, but keep in mind away to Bosnia will also play a significant role in our qualification. Greece can afford to lose only one match, the rest would be MUST WINS.

My guess would be in early February and 2 in November (if Greece doesn't make the playoffs).

As long as they beat Turkey, we are very happy. :)

My Texans played well, especially the defense. Our quarterback Brock Oswelier was just bad in the 2nd half, throwing 3 interceptions, giving away the game. What hurts the most, Will Fuller dropping the ball in the end zone by far Brock's best throw of the season. lol

The proposed deal of expanding to 48 countries is a joke and abolishing draws into automatic shoot-outs, Gianni Infantino must be losing his marbles, ruining the beautiful game as it was now and before. smh

Houston Texans defeat Oakland Raiders 27-14 and will face either Kansas City Chiefs or New England Patriots. Brock Oswelier played his best game of the season, no turnovers for the first time at home.

I think Greece will be fine without him, we got Sokratis and Manolas to do the clean up.

Guys, I am looking for an article on K. Paps ban. Any idea how many games he will miss?

Anytime a Greek club faces a Turkish club, it is always interesting :D

PAOK seems to play well against German oppositions. I don't know how good this Schalke team is, it's up to PAOK to give their 110%.

I like this draw, in fact I was praying for this to happen. Always wanted to see Greece-Turkey matches. It's only a matter of Olympiakos showing up in big games like this one.
