Interesting statistic. Camara's goal today was the first goals ever scored by PAOK against an Austrian team in an away game. We failed to score a goal on Austrian soil in our 5 previous away games.

Absolutely. MVP in both games.

Bring on Rijeka. I am switching to the other Austrian feed to watch my beloved Banik.

Camara 0:1

Major save by Pavlenka to keep us in the game.

Finally a shot on goal!!!

And BTW, I don't really like these black jerseys.

I missed most of the first half and judging by the comments I did not miss much. I have feeling Europa League is not in our cards this season. Hopefully we can do better against Omonia.

NAME: Georgios Giakoumakis POSITION: Center Forward JERSEY NUMBER: 7 BIRTHDAY: 09-December-1994 BIRTH PLACE: Iraklio, Greece HEIGHT 1.85 m PAOK DEBUT: 24.08.2025 (PAOK – AE Larisa 1:0) NT DEBUT: 11-11-2020 (Greece-Cyprus 2:1 scoring the winning goal) PREVIOUS TEAMS: Cruz Azul, Atlanta United, Celtic Glasgow, VVV-Venlo, Gornik Zabrze, OFI FC, AEK Athens, Episkopi, Platanias Chania, Atsalenios CONTRACT ENDS: 30-June-2026 (loan from Cruz Azul) SALARY: € 1,800,000 per season

If rumors are true that Zafiris really wants to come to PAOK and already has agreed with us, than it is just a matter of time for the deal to happen. He is making 600K at Slavia with the new contract he signed with them. He will triple his salary if he comes to us. The 16 mil figure is not true. That was just a figment of imagination by a certain Czech journalist, which immediately was copied by the Greek press. In other transfer news, Giakoumakis is due in Thessaloniki today to undergo a physical and sign a 1-yeare loan with PAOK.

Taison was injured during practice today and is questionable for Thursday's game.

There is a very small chance that I might be in Thessaloniki for our second home game one week later. If I am I will try to go.

The ref from Israel that called the Aris - PAOK title deciding game is the one that will call this game. Let's not forget that at that game he sent our Michailidis with two yellow cards . At least one of the cards was non-existent.

Apparently we agreed with Cruz Azul for Giakoumakis. Rumors are that we increased our portion of the contract to 60% (1.7 mil) and agreement was reached for one year loan. The deal should be announced tomorrow.

0:0 final. Poor game by PAOK. Not sure how we can progress if we can't create any chances to score.

We are dominating but not a single scoring chance.

Hopefully Baba is replace at halftime. He is very slow coming back on defense. Also our midfield is nonexistent.The only bright spots are Pavlenka and Kenny.

Another big save by Pavlenka.
