PAOK U15 team defeated Panathinaikos 2:0 in the semifinal of the U15 Superleague competition played at the Panthessaliko Stadium in Volos. We will now face Olympiakos on Sunday in the final for the title.

Taison will most likely be saved for the cup final, even if he is fit to play. This will be a tough game as Olympiakos is playing for two result. We must win and will not be easy.

Only one result is beneficial to PAOK and that is a win even if it is only 1:0. With a win we finish in 3rd place and secure Europa League spot thanks also to being in the cup final. With any other result we finish in 4th place and we will need to win the cup in order to secure Europa League. Hopefully some of our injured players will be back for this game.

Latest possible venue for the cup is Zaglebie, Poland. Final decision is supposed to be taken on Friday. President of Superleague is doing everything possible to discredit the Greek Cup final, since it is not under his control.

There are no longer COVID rules. The one day delay was decided by the fat owner (and president of Superleague) of Olympiakos. This has nothing to do with COVID or the health of the players. It has to do with power struggle for the control of Greek football. That's why we still don't know where and when the Greek Cup final will be played.

Easy win. Now if we can beat Olympiakos on Sunday for the 3rd place. In the other games. Aris - AEK 1:2 Olympiakos - Panathinaikos 1:0 With these results AEK is pretty much guaranteed to win the Superleague title next Sunday.

0:2 Thomas Very nice goal after an assist by Schwab

Volos red card in 45th minute. Halftime: Volos - PAOK 0:1 In the other games: Aris - AEK 1:2 Olympiakos - Panathinaikos 0:0

0:1 Zivkovic

A. Zivkovic and Schwab are at 3 yellow cards. If they receive one today they will miss the big game on Sunday against Olympiakos. Bise with a start. I have a feeling that he will score today and give us the win. In the other game Panathinaikos is playing with a full squad of players infected with COVID-19 according with Panathinaikos officials, but I don't really believe them. Rumors are that Olympiakos also has COVID cases and I would not be surprised if they use that fact to postpone our game against them on Sunday.

Starting lineup:

Monday at 21:00 EEST. Decided by the big, and I mean big, President of Superleague.

Obvious must win game in order to have a chance to defeat Olympiakos in the last round of the playoffs and claim the 3rd place in the standings.

First rumors: - Dantas to stay on loan for one more season and extend his contract with Benfica - Pelkas is free and is serious about returning to PAOK - Krmencik's agent was in Thessaloniki recently and is trying to bring him back to PAOK

Since pash is too lazy to open his favorite topic I'll do it for him. Let the fun begin.

3:1 win for PAOK 'B' against Niki Volos.

Thomas MVP for PAOK. Kotarski made some big saves in 2nd half but is at fault in the Panathinaikos goal. Win against Volos on Sunday and then give it all against Olympiakos in the last game of the Superleague for this season.

Too bad AEK could not beat Olympiakos.

PAO with 10 men. Shenkenveld red card.

1:1 Thomas

I hope Oliveira is done with PAOK. If I was Savvidis I would not pay the money he wants to resign with the team.

Bad defense once again.

PAOK HC Women's Handball team has defeated OF Nea Ionia 23:15 in the 4th and decisive game of the Greek Women's Handball Championships and for 5th straight season captured the national title.
