#Metoo ?

Before we resume our duties for the WC qualifiers we will play a friendly on September 1st in St. Jakob-Park in Basel against Switzerland. Only confirmation I found is on the site of the Swiss FA: https://www.football.ch/sfv/nationalteams/a-team/kalender.aspx

Last game of this weird season for our internationals. Maybe using this one as a try-out for the important games we play from September on. After that the lads can charge their batteries.

Stefanos Tsitsipas - Pedro Martinez 6-3, 6-4 and 6-3. Next opponent is John Isner.

Sakkari - Zavatska (Ukrain) 6-4, 6-1 in R1 and Maria to R2.

Thanks. I'm fine. Not even sore. But let's see what happens when I get up tomorrow morning. Ticherouli!

A pity. Liked it when our fans turned the away game in Xanthi to an extra homegame with their presence.

Got my first dose (Moderna) today. Hope we can resume the way we were living before March 2020 very soon. They expect that al mature inhabitants of the country could have their dose (J&J) or doses (the others) early September. Second dose in July 6th, btw.

Only one club for Northern Ireland to be confirmed as participant. The coefficient will be low. All the other clubs are known. Therefore the overview is good to pick the clubs to draw and those to avoid. Q3 good draw: Dudelange, The New Saints, Olimpija Ljubljana, Vaduz, Domzale and Klaksvik. Q3 to avoid: Hajduk Split, Rubin Kazan, Vitesse, Sochi, Trabzonspor, Sivasspor, Vorskla Poltava, Hibernian, AEL Limassol and Vojvodina. PO good draw: Maribor, Dundalk, Austria Wien and Suduva. PO to avoid: all the others.

Easy first round for Tsitsipas in the 2021 tournament. 7-6, 6-3 and 6-1 against Jeremy Chardy of France.

The saga continues: UEFA takes the priority for cup winners very precisely. They promote only cup winners to re-balance the Europa Conference League for the empty spot of Villarreal in the play-off round. The access list will be re-balanced as follows: The cup winner of Switzerland (FC Luzern) and Greece (PAOK Thessaloniki) move from ECL-Q2 to ECL-Q3, The cup winners of Slovenia (Olimpija Ljubljana), Hungary (Újpest TE), Luxembourg, and Lithuania (FK Panevezys) move from ECL-Q1 to ECL-Q2. The decision was taken this morning. Therefore the new important days for us are now: July 19: Third qualifying round draw August 2: Play-off round draw August 5/12: Third qualifying round August 19/26: Play-off August 26: Group stage draw September 16: Group stage, Matchday 1 And this gives us two more weeks of preparation and possible friendlies against better opponents

After four draws and three defeats Akropolis finally had their first win in MD 8.

Biseswar called up for Surinam's WC qualifiers against Bermuda (June 5th at home) and Canada (June 9th away).

Andrija Zivkovic is invited for the national team of Serbia. They will play friendlies against Jamaica and Japan.

Does Christos want to go there? They even missed qualification for the ECL Qualifiers as #8 of the Bundesliga.

There are days that I'm so sick of football. This is one of them.

Tzolis and Paschalakis invited for the Ethniki for the friendlies against Belgium (3/6) and Norway (6/6).

He is in the squad!

I'm afraid they are going to Austria. Still welcome to visit the Netherlands, Pash!
