Anyone knows a good live stream that works here in Canada for this game.

I know right. I do think people have lost hope as its been so many years now since we qualified for a major tournament, i also think people don't have high expectations anymore with this team. For me I'm nervous as hell for some reason i see us playing a better game against Sweden then we do against Georgia. I hope I'm wrong but i don't have a great feeling about tomorrow.

This game for some reason worries me, We tend to see Greece make it so much harder on themselves when they play these type of teams. JVS better have this team pressing and not allow them to take their foot off the gas as we saw what happened in the first game with Georgia and the last minute goal we conceded vs Kosovo. JVS better not have a defensive line up in this game.

That's exactly it we are quick to criticize why some of our strikers on why they can produce for their club team but not the national team and there is a simple explanation and @Dean97 hit on it, most of the time it comes down do we have a below average midfield on the NT and the strikers just don't get the service they do for their club teams. Calling up Staf is absurd. JVS better understand that he better push forward as its 2 wins or bust for us in these upcoming games. I hope he's learned a few lessons from the Sweden game and continues with that style and hopefully he now has learned if the team is up by a goal they cant just sit back it has burned us every time he needs them to keep pushing forward.

Here is why Zagorakis stepped down. he wanted to use his own philosophy but the other members didn't want that. Why bring in a guy in if you aren't going to let him run things his way. Ζαγοράκης σε στενούς συνεργάτες του: 'Υπάρχει διαφορά φιλοσοφίας' (sport24.gr)

There's no way around it guys we need to win every game and at the very least draw Spain to have a legitimate shot at 2nd. Now i would love if Kosovo somehow takes points against Sweden but that's highly unlikely. But we can't get ahead of ourselves we now need to take it one game at a time and not look ahead as we now have to focus on Georgia and hope the players don't have their minds on the Sweden game as we always seem to struggle against these type of teams.

How bad are those two draws now against Georgia and Kosovo. We were leading in both games.. We would have been in 2nd with 12 points and at the very least if we hung on against Kosovo we would be tied for 2nd with Sweden. We have to beat Georgia on the road and then beat Sweden at home if we do that then we have a great chance. Still a very tall ask. I don't think JVS will go anywhere until a new EPO leader is assigned and most likely that win bought him some time. The only thing i can say is JVS needs to play the style of play he played today against Sweden as i don't remember Greece standing toe to toe with a solid team like Sweden and creating chances back and fourth it was really nice to watch. This game could have gone the other way but the boys stuck with it and Vlacho stood tall. I would rather lose or draw every game playing like that rather then sit back and play scared against Kosovo and Georgia. Hopefully by October we have some of our injured players back as well. Bakasetas as s%$#! as he is played a good game today i have to admit as much as i hate to say it. Douvikas is looking really good. overall they team went toe to toe with Sweden and came away with a victory lets hope now they don't s%$#! the bed against Georgia in October.

Come FFS hold on for once.

How the hell do we always give up a goal right after we score. this is an ongoing trend.

WOW

Goaaaaaaaaaaal

wow just like that we almost give it up

almost 2 come on guys

I agree Greek football is a disaster. I guess so much for JVS being fired after this game. I was feeling positive with Zagorakis at that position now this is just an unorganized s%$#! show. no idea where the NT goes from here.

WOW Zagorakis resigns. Παραιτήθηκε ο Θοδωρής Ζαγοράκης από την προεδρία της ΕΠΟ (sport24.gr)

What pisses me off the most about JVS is in a friendly he will have the team playing so much better and a complete different style but as soon as its a game that counts he plays the complete opposite then he did in the friendly. Explain the logic of using a different line up and a different style in a friendly compared to a qualification game. Instead of using a style and line up that will mirror the qualification game so the team can get familiar with each other and the style he completely does the opposite.

I still want JVS gone but he's not exactly wrong, We have gone through 5-6 coaches now and non of them have been able to get any results with this team. I'm like you I'm at a loss for words with our freefall since the 2014 world cup. I honesty don't know what to say anymore.

The only way Greece still have a chance is if they win all of there remaining games which includes beating Sweden twice and Spain. I cant see that happening at all. Mathematically we are still alive but realistically i see no chance. What would give any of us confidence after seeing a horrible 3 games to start this campaign. Right now we should be sitting with 7 points instead of 3. At best I see another draw in the Sweden game. We are probably going to see JVS not going for it and sitting back playing not to lose so i cant see us getting more then a couple chances to score.

Removed posted in the wrong thread.

Even when Fortounis was in the line JVS would utilize him wrong. Here is the most embarrassing stat i have heard so far, Since this campaign started Greece have less then 10 shots on target and ONLY San Marino has less and we have played 2 out of our 3 games against Kosovo and Georgia. Its like JVS changed his entire philosophy of holding the ball and attacking and instead decided to play like we were the underdogs. Who the F*** sits back against Kosovo and Georgia what's wrong with him. We should have been pressing and allowed Kosovo to stay high and take chances and we would have exposed them for another goal but instead we sat back like scared little girls trying to protect as if we were playing Spain. And for the record I'm not excusing our players they were absolutely s%$#! but when you have such a limited talent pool how you keep Manolas and Siovas who are better then anyone we have who would have prevented this goal and the Georgia breakdown when we had the lead out of the line up is mind blowing. I was defending JVS i Liked what I saw early on but now I'm at the point where i want him no where near this dreadful team anymore.
