Next game: Play-Outs: Round 7 08-April-2026, 15:00 EET Kalamaria - Apollon kalamaria Stadium PAOK Thessaloniki 'B' - PAS Giannina TV: Sportal.gr Should be an easy win as PAS is officially relegated.

AEK wins 1:0 with Olympakos having a goal disallowed in the 97th minute. Our title chances are finished. Time to concentrate on winning the cup and getting the 2nd place in Superlegue.

And AEK is leading 1:0 early in the game.

The chance by Jerrmejeff needed to be a goal. Now we have to hope for a tie in the other game. Under no circumstances do we want an AEK win.

0:0 halftime. Disappointing display by PAOK.

Still no full practices for Meite and Kenny. Zivkovic just doing therapy. Those three will probably not play on Sunday.

Sanchez scored the goal for Mexico against Belgium. The game ended in a 1:1 tie. He was voted the Player of the Match. He also managed to get a yellow card. Tsiftsis played 15 minutes for the senior NT against Hungary, replacing Tzolakis in 78th minute. Konstantelias and Zafiring were left off the squad due to a flu. Kedziora played in the first game for Poland against Albania, but sat on the bench against Sweden. Also Mythou scored twice for the U19 team against Sweden .

0:0 tie and we progress to the final where we will meet Astras Tripoli. Next game: WOMEN'S FOOTBALL LEAGUE - Round 22 05-APRIL-2026, 15:00 EEST Kifisia - Dimotiko Zirinis Kifisia - PAOK Thessaloniki TV:

Next game: GREEK CUP - Semifinal - Leg 2 01-APRIL-2026, 16:30 EET Anargyri - Dimotiko Stadio AEK Athens - PAOK Thessaloniki TV: AC AEK TV Game can be seen here:

Giakoumakis took part in full practice today and is ready for Sunday's game. Kenny and Meite still doubtful. Zivkovic will probably not be ready by Sunday. What a way to miss our best player with a self sustained injury at his own home.

1:0 win over Norway in the Euro qualifying. We did not qualify to the Euro finals, but did qualify to the U17 World Cup as one of the 2nd best finishers.

All we needed was a tie. Still 3 games left in the campaign. We win them all and 2nd place is ours. First place is out of reach as the Germans will not drop any points.

At least Mandalos retired and he won't play again for the NT. Time for Bakasetas and Kourbelis to be dropped from the team as well.

You can watch the cup game here:

Our first two games will dictate our chances for the title. Round 1 game against Panathinaikos is a must win, hopefully AEK does not win at Olympiakos. This will equalize things in the standing and we will go To AEK for the most important game. Win there will make us the favorite to win it all. Even a tie will still keep our hopes alive. I think if we can get 12 points (3 home wins and 3 away ties) in the playoffs we will be in good shape.

Yes he has been withdrawn after his knee injury resurfaced. I am afraid he will miss some of the playoff games.

Dragomirova really underperformed in HJ and LJ which set her back. I don't think Tentoglou's career is over. He is still young. He just needs to become focused and become hungry to win again. There is quite a few youngsters now that want to take over top spots.
