Blackhawk

UEFA denied our appeal and we will be without Zivkovic on Thursday.

The worst possible draw for PAOK. Did not get a team from SL2, and ended up with OFI in good playing form and the always dangerous Atromitos. At least we will play AEK and OFI at home. Our schedule: MD1: PAOK - OFI (September 1-3, 2026) MD2: bye MD3: Atromitos - PAOK (September 15-17, 2026) MD4: PAOK - AEK (October 27-29, 2026) MD5: Kalamata - PAOK (December 2, 2026)

Good move with the young Serbian from Partizan. That's how you utilize some of the money from the Konstantelias sale.

PAOK is appealing the Zivkovic red card with UEFA in hope of reducing his punishment to just one game ban, thus making him available for Thursday. I don't think we stand a chance.

Zivkovic 4:0 I disagree. The penalty was taken well. The difference is the goalie guessed right, but that was not enough because it was placed well by Zivkovic.

Nice goal

Pelkas 2:0

Shoretire goal

We are controlling the game, but are completely harmless on offense.

I would not start Kenny, Zafeiris, Baba and Taison in this game. We need to go with fresh legs into the second game with Brann. Also some players that just joined the team recently (Louchet, Ndiaye) need to start in order to gel with the team.

Pablo Garcia has become the head coach of Armenian team Noah Yerevan.

Karalis broke his outdoor pole vault record with a 6.16m jump at the Lausagne Gran Prix.

Should have easily won the game with at least 2 goal margin. Two clear sitters should have resulted in 2 goals. Yet another 20 minute lapse at the beginning of 2nd half gifted them the goal. We need to get serious in the final of the season next week.

WTF Ndiaye

Brann without making a single change is the freshest team on the field.

Baba 1:1

And there it is 0:1

Wake up! We almost conceded one. That was a better chance than the Mythou sitter.

Can't get a better chance to score than that.

Youtube link for the game:

Michailidis was very poor in the game against Anderlecht, but it did not help that Baba was the LB.

The reason being that he was also our captain in the game, although I heard that he was facing a possible 3-game ban.
