Blackhawk

Perhaps one or two medal for Greece in these Olympics. Kurugliev gets a second chance via repechage and might get the bronze in 86 kg freestyle wrestling. He needs 2 wins against opponents he beat before. Kougioumtzidis gets into action tomorrow and could also be going for a medal. In water polo our women's team lost to Hungary in the classification 5-8 and will now play for 7th place against Canada.

Our youngsters from the PAOK youth teams are slowly departing. After Darelas who signed a 2-year deal with Nijmegen, Panagiotou has signed 1+1 deal with Cypriot team Ethnikos Achnas.

Forget the medal in Water Polo. 12:11 loss to Serbia in the quartefinals.

Reports are that Meite turned down our offer of 2+1 years. I think it's time we gave up on him.

Embarrassing loss for AEK in Armenia in Conference League. Even the Armenian goalkeeper managed to score in the game. See the highlights:

In the other gam of interest to PAOK: Sparta Praha - FCSB 1:1

Gold medal as expected by Tentoglou with a jump of 8.48 meter. Greatest Greek athlete of all times.

Final score 2:2.

2:2 Baba

2:1 now

Almost 2:1 Malmo.

1:2 but it doesn't count.

WTF Brandon. That needs to go in.

Almost 2:1 Malmo.

1:1 halftime. Lucky to be tied. Malmo had several good chances to score. We need a change in midfield in order to become quicker in transition. Their defense is very weak and we should take advantage of that.

Taison the scorer

It's 1:1

Poor defensive coverage.

And 1:0

And another big save by Kotarski.

Two big chances by Malmo to open the score in the first 5 minutes.

I really thought Camara would start today. The Schwab/Ozdoev duo was not that effective against the Bosnians.

Karalis wins the bronze medal with a jump of 5.90 meters. Well done!

The draw for CL could have been better, but if we want to be taking part in the group phase, we should be able to beat teams like Sparta Prague or Steaua. First things first though. Let's take care of Malmo FF.
