Tsiovolou 2:41.91 (+28.41) MEN'S SLALOM (96 competitors) Ginnis DNF AJ Ginnis did not complete his first run as it was decided prior to his race that he will leave the starting gate, but not complete the course due to the serious injury to his ankle. The day before the race AJ Ginnis announced that he is retiring from competitive racing and that he will start the race just to claim that he took part in his first Olympics. He missed the two prior Olympics due to injuries as well.

Referees from Slovakia for this game. Also, UEFA president Ceferin will be in attendance at Toumba on Thursday. Lucescu, Giakoumakis and the injured Konstantelias are serving 1 game ban in this match due to red/yellow cards. Other injuries preventing them from playing in this game are to Ivanusec, Pelkas, and Despodov. There will most likely be some kind of rotation as players like Meite, Baba, Zivkovic, Kenny and Taison need some rest.

PAS was deducted 3 points for not paying salaries to old players, although they can appeal that decision.

The missed penalty cost us. Camara could have ended it with the header at the end.

I am afraid the missed penalty will haunt us in the end.

Giakoumakis misses.

Penalty

Taison is playing "10". Chatsidis on the right, Zivkovic on the left. Balde is not ready to get a starting position on this team yet.

And he broke the record again today. He ran the 400 meter in 45.83 seconds in a meet in Clemson, South Carolina competing for University of Miami.

Gama against Paraguay is scheduled for March 27, 2026 and will be played at Karaiskakis Stadium.
