Dutch Eagle

The mighty peponi is announced as assistant for the Dutch U-21 squad.

Abdoul Camara (he played for us from January till Juni 2013 as a loanee from Sochaux) has - only 28 years old - announced his retirement. Some media say he has a serious injury problem following knee ligament trouble suffered at the end of 2017. Other say he suffers some kind of heartfailure.

Benfica drew 1-1 in the derby against Sporting. Felix scoring the equalizer in 86’.

After this weeks good week for Greece we have this ranking for #10-#17: 10 Turkey 6.000 6.600 9.700 6.800 1.700 30.800 4/ 5 11 Austria 4.125 3.800 7.375 9.750 1.500 26.550 2/ 5 12 Denmark 2.900 5.500 8.500 5.250 3.750 25.900 3/ 4 13 Netherlands 6.083 5.750 9.100 2.900 1.700 25.533 2/ 5 14 Greece 6.200 5.400 5.800 5.100 2.100 24.600 3/ 5 15 Switzerland 6.900 5.300 4.300 6.500 0.900 23.900 3/ 5 16 Croatia 6.875 4.500 5.125 5.125 2.250 23.875 1/ 4 17 Czech Republic 3.875 7.300 5.500 5.500 1.500 23.675 4/ 5

And his second in the second half to secure Atromitos's win with 1-2.

Good save Paschalakis.

Better make the 2-0. They are dangerous with headers.

Huge chance missed by Biseswar. Man man man.

Diegooooo. Bale ena goal na goustaroume.

Very soft penalty, though. But that should have been red. Dirty foul on Warda's leg.

Prijo 1-0

Penalty!

Ref and assistant are blind. Two clear corners and they do not see it.

Koulouris scored the first goal of the season 2018/2019.

Just missed three good chances with Shakhov, Warda and Matos the last few minutes.

You (or anybody else) know how the get this done? There is no manual. And when I clic on the e-mail nothing happens. Think it works now but the status is “pending”.

The draw for round 2 will be held on Monday 27th at 15:00 EEST. 21 teams are most likely left. I assume 11 will get a bye and the other 10 will play a tie in order to get to the 16 teams that will face teams from the Football League in round 3. It would make sense that Megas Alexandros Trikalon Imathias won’t get a bye as they had/have one in round 1 that is played tomorrow. But it is Greece and EPO. Well, you know.

Tsitsipas is seeded #15 and will face Tommy Robredo from Spain in the first round. Robredo is a qualifier who is currently #208 on the ranking but is a former top-5 ranked player. Sakkari is seeded #32 and will face Asia Muhammad of the US. Muhammad is the current #248 of the world and is playing thanks to a wildcard. Muhammad by the way is the older sister of Shabazz, who plays for the Bucks (and thus a collegue of Antetekounmpo).

We got a fine of euro 22,000 by UEFA for the use of lasers and the fact that people were sitting on the stairs leading to the exits in the game against Spartak.

The squad for tomorrow: Ρέι, Πασχαλάκης, Μάτος, Κίτσιου, Βιεϊρίνια, Κρέσπο, Χατσερίδης, Μαλεζάς, Βέρνμπλουμ, Σάκχοφ, Κάνιας, Ελ Καντουρί, Μπίσεσβαρ, Πέλκας, Ουάρντα, Ζαμπά, Πρίγιοβιτς, Ακπόμ.
