Zivko again

Zivko on fire.

That was clear penalty.

Nice goal

In today's finals: Anastasakis finishes 10th with 75.49 meters. 20 KM Walk - Women: 15. Drisbioti 1:30.19 37. Filtisakou 1:37.51 Papadopoulou DNS

Except for Anastasakis, really disappointing results so far. Specially for the triple jumpers. OK, Tsiamis is a veteran at 42 years old and always gives his best, but the other two? Jumping under 15 meters in the qualifying of the world championships? Not acceptable.

Starting lineup:

Are you sure?

I talked to Yiankos earlier today and he sends his best regards to everyone, but he also told me that he does not want to come back to the forums.

Tsiggaras and Felipe Soares to miss the game. Good news is that Tsiggaras's injury is not broken ribs and he might be able to play in Scotland next week. As for Soares his injury is still being monitorred, but he is expected to miss at least 2 weeks. There porobably will be more changes in our lineup for this game. For one I expect Soares to start instead of Baba, since Baba will not play against Hearts. I also see either Lyratzis or Sastre replacing Kedziora as RB. As for midfield I expect the Ozdoev, Schwab duo, since I don't believe Lucescu will risk throwing in the youngsters Vrakas or Giaxis. There were rumors that the game might be postponed, but it appears that this will not be the case. More likely it's the next weeks game that is a candidate for postponement.

Not only that, he is reported to be injured right now, so he won't help us in the near future if we get him.

And the Croats knew it. That's why all their offense was from that side. The good news is that Sastre will probably be back for the games with Hearts.

Hey PAOKSYD do you like or write poetry?

First leg is in Edinburgh on August 24. Return leg at Toumba on August 31. I think Hajduk was a much tougher team than Hearts will be. If we don't shoot ourselves in the foot we should be able to make the group stage.

Hearts of Midlothian it is. They defeted Rosenborg 3:1. Bad news following the game is that Tsiggaras left the game most likely due to broken rib. Also Soares will undergo an MRI tomorrow to see how serious his injury is. We might be left with only Schwab and Ozdoev as midfielders for the next few games. Baba also out of the next European game due to cards.

Zivko again

Zivko 2:0

Ozdoev in.

We need to improve in the second half. Specially on defense. They are getting way too many headers. Also, we need to cut down on the defensive mistakes where we give them possession. We need a second goal. Sitting back will backfire.

So close Koulierakis

Now we got to play smart.

Penalty

What the hell was that Kotarski?
