Did not see the game. Only the highlights. Very important win. But for this win to have any meaning we need to win our next game at Atromitos. I would expect a major rotation in the cup game on Wednesday. Game highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OrEgdkBz6U

Action 24 now has the rights to broadcast the games, which means the AC PAOK YouTube channel probably can't show them anymore.

Since the 1959-1960 season when the National Championship officially started, PAOK has scored 1,999 goals at Toumba Stadium. The player that scores the first goal for us on Sunday will reach the 2,000 goal mark. 500th goal: Aggelos Anastasiadis: PAOK - Iraklis 2:2 (1976) 1,000th goal: Georgios Toursounidis: PAOK - AEK 2:2 (1992) 1,500th goal: Ibrahima Bakayoko: PAOK - Skoda Xanthi 1:0 (2008) My prediction is that Andrija Zivkovic will be the lucky one.

Here is my lineup for the big game: --------------- Kotarski -------------- Sastre - Kedziora - Koulierakis - Baba --------- Meite ----- Ozdoev -------- Zivkovic --- Konstantelias --- Taison ---------------Thomas ---------------

Update on our women's team. After 12 rounds in Women's Football League PAOK is first in the standings with 8 points ahead of second Panathinaikos: Our next game is as follows: WOMEN'S FOOTBALL LEAGUE - Round 13 27-JANUARY-2024 13:45 EET (11:45 UTC, 06:45 CST, 22:45 AEDT) Asteras Tripolis - PAOK Thessaloniki TV: Action 24 (Greece), Action 24 Web Stream: https://www.action24.gr/live-stream/ (worldwide)

All Norwegian crew for this game.

2:2 tie in Mitilini. Next game: 2023 - 2024 Season: Round 19 (28.01.2024, 14:00 EET - Makedonikos Stadium, Nea Efkarpia) PAOK 'B' Thessaloniki - Makedonikos Neapolis TV: Action 24 (Greece), Action 24 Web Stream: https://www.action24.gr/live-stream/ (worldwide)

True, but I believe Atromitos can qualify. They already beat Panathinaikos twice this season and in today's game the officiating was 100:0 for Panathinaikos giving them a penalty for non-existing foul outside the box. Panathinaikos players were flopping at every slight touch. LeBron would be proud of them. Something we should keep in mind on Sunday.

PAOK volleyball team won the Greek Supercup (last season's champion vs. cup winner) defeating Olympiakos 3:2 in a game played on Olympikos's home turf at Renti.

Jonathan (Jonny) Castro Otto is coming to Thessaloniki on Friday to sign a 1.5 year deal with PAOK. Also rumors are that we are close to signing a winger by the end of the week.

Looks like a good possibility for the following semifinal matchups: PAOK - Atromitos Panaitolikos - Aris

QUARTEFINAL RESULTS: Niki Volos - Aris -:-, 0:3 Panaitolikos - OFI -:-, 2:1 Atromitos - Panathinaikos -:-, 2:1 PAOK - Panserraikos -:-, 4:0 SEMIFINALS winner Panserraikos / PAOK - winner Panathinaikos / Atromitos winner OFI / Panaitolikos - Aris / Niki Volos

Problem is Taison is asking for 2 years and PAOK sticking to one year extension.

We gave up on Maximovic at the end of the summer when his team demanded 4 mil just to let him go. I think a decision was made to see how Meite/Antonio would perform and revisit this again in the future. It appears that during this transfer period a bidding war has started and PAOK did not take part in it. His agent all of a sudden also demanded a 1.7 mil signing bonus, which probably turned PAOK completely off. At the end I think we will sign either Meite or Antonio and also look for another midfielder since at the end of this period some of the contracts are ending (Schwab). In other rumors I heard that Murg is asking for a wage increase. After sitting on the bench for the past two seasons, I am not sure I would be extending his contract.

Looks like Maximovic, who we had almost "signed" last transfer period and was a sure thing to join PAOK in the summer is signing with Panathinaikos for 3 years.

Yes much better in 2nd half. Now we have whole week to prepare for the first of the big games at Toumba against Panathinaikos. We need to win that one.

1:5 Tzimas

1:4 Taison

Sure there is. Used for the 3000 meters steeple chase and is filled with water during the race.

First time in history Volos scores a goal against PAOK in a home game for the Superleague competition.

1:3

0:3 Despodov again with a rocket.

0:2 halftime. We are winning but we are not playing good at all. We are not playing with any passion and make way too many mistakes.
