Dutch Eagle

Viktoria Plzen - AEK Larnaca in PO. Chances are 70%-30% in my opinion. The form of the day might do the trick for AEK.

Best draw possible considering the circumstances for Apollon, I think: Midtjylland. First game at home.

Oly will be in GS too. If they win in CL. If the lose in EL.

Be carefull though. In Sweden the league is underway. And they eliminated Tudor's Galatasaray.

PAOK - Östersund

And no Sheriff

No Videoton and Utrecht sofar

We are in Group 4 for today's draw: Seeded Partizan (SRB) 16.075 Marseille (FRA) 28.333 PAOK (GRE) 35.080 Legia Warszawa (POL) 28.450 Viktoria Plzeň (CZE) 40.635 Zenit (RUS) 87.106 Unseeded Videoton (HUN) 8.650 Sheriff Tiraspol (MDA) 11.150 AEK Larnaca (CYP) 6.210 Utrecht (NED) 6.712 Domžale (SVN) 4.125 Östersund (SWE) 3.945

And indeed: 2-0, with the second goal scored in '86, was enough. Apollon will be unseeded in tomorrow's draw.

AEK equalised in '90 to earn themselves a 1-1 and a place in EL PO, where they will be unseeded (again).

Easy, as in really easy, would be to draw Hafnarfjadar (to play them not to pronounce the name of that club....), Östersund or Sudava.

With the Braga - AIK Solna game in extra time we have the following results of the countries from #8 till #17: Belgium: lost Gent and Oostende; Anderlecht and Zulte Waregem GS; Club Bruges seeded EL. Ukraine: Olimpik out; Shaktar and Zorya Luhansk GS; Dinamo Kiev seeded EL; Olexandria not seeded El. Turkey: Galatasaray eliminated already; Besiktas, Istanbul Basaksehir (even if they lose in CL PO) and Konyaspor GS; Fenerbahce seeded EL. Netherlands: PSV out; Feyenoord and Vitesse GS; Ajax seeded EL; Utrecht unseeded. Austria: Sturm Graz lost for the Aussies; Austria Wien and RB Salzburg seeded in EL; Altach unseeded in EL. Czech Republic: Mlada Boleslav and Sparta Prague eliminated; Slavia Prague (even if they lose in CL PO) and Zlin GS; Viktoria Plzen seeded in EL. Switzerland: Sion and Luzern out; Basel, Young Boys (even if they lose in CL PO) and Lugano in GS. Greece: Panionios out; Olympiakos GS (CL or EL whatever the result); PAOK seeded EL, Panathinaikos (unfortunately Braga progressed while writing this post) and AEK unseeded in EL. Croatia: Haven't lost a team yet; Rijeka always in GS after PO CL; Dinamo Zagreb seeded in EL; Hajduk Split and Osijek unseeded. Denmark: Brøndby and Lingby out; Copenhagen GS no matter what happens); Midjylland seeded in EL. Not too bad if you ask me. Hope the draw for our EL teams is not to heavy.

Just home in Chalkidiki. Not a great game. Should have put in 4 or 5 today. Biseswar by far MVP of the match. When he was subbed off we looked like 11 separate Ltd. instead of a team. So I agree with Yiankos. O Priojovic perdepse ta podia tou simera. Luckily Donetsk was not a good team. We need to improve to reach GS.

2-0. What a shot

I'm in. Great atmosphere

Natcho scored the only goal in the game for CSKA against AEK in Q3 of the CL.

Sotiriou joined Copenhagen and managed to continue making progress. Already scored two goals in three league matches. And yesterday he scored his first European goal for his new club in Q3 of CL against FK Vardar.

Great result!

1-0 Carlao !!

Krima. 1-2 in the dying seconds. And for the coefficient and for being eliminated with a defeat now. Saw on another site that the penalty given to Austria wasn't a penalty (foul outside the box and therefore the crowd got overexcited and the game was interrupted) but the red card was correctly given.

7,600 tickets after today. Therefore 750 sold today. Didn't surprise me as I saw a lot of people coming for season tickets and tickets for the Olimpik-game when I went to Toumba today.

The European week starts good with Swiss Sion being eliminated by Sudava of Lithuania. Sudava now managed to eliminate three teams in Q1, Q2 and Q3 with a higher coefficient than them (only 1,825). Every seeded club probably will want to draw them in PO. But I agree with the sheriff. We need to collect points ourselves.

AEL 1-1 in '60 with Aldair. They just need one more goal.

Just saw it of Hagi. Isn't he the owner/founder of the club? So could this be a puppet? Been I saw in the Greek media. When I return from my vacation I will see him again. He lives in my neighbourhood and I see him when he walks his dog.

Red card Marco Airosa of AEL. After that the game got interupted (don't know why) and now Austria scored with a penalty just for halftime. Will be difficult to progress for AEL.
