Dutch Eagle

Skondras might go to Platanias, a 3rd Tier in Greece

K.Paps did not train today at the Ehtniki. He had a day off the finish his transfer (loanbasis though) to Red Bull (sorry RasenBallsport) Leipzig.

Our K20 has been drawn with Ferenc Puskas Academy (Hungary) for the little brother of the Champions League witch is called Youth League Domestic Champions. First game away in September 28th. Homegame on October 19th. Game will be played at Kautanzogliou stadium. If PAOK wins they will face the winner of A#a* (The Netherlands) vs Breidablik (Iceland). Games November 2nd (home) and 23rd.

Nikita, I'm one of the 12 mio inhabitants of The Netherlands that dislike those arrogant bastards. Kostas start this year was not good. He has improved since then. His problem will be his heigth or the lack of it. During all his career. But overall he is reliable.

Season tickets for gate 7 are sold out. No information about the total tally so far.

I was in the stadium (De Kuip, Rotterdam, home of Feyenoord) that game. Saravakos scored the opening-goal. It still is the only goal Greece scored against Oranje.

After beating A#a* with his team last week in the Arena with 1-2 with a good performance Lamprou had his first clean sheet of the season drawing 0-0 with Roda JC (of trainer Yannis Anastasiou).

And another signing for Veria: Sisinio Gonzalez Martinez a 30 year old Spanish midfielder. He signed for one year and played last year for Polish side Lech Poznan.

PAOK - Apollon 3-3. 25' 1-0 own goal Kinosidou 35' 1-1 38' 2-1 Brame 39' 3-1 Dimitrijevic 60' 3-2 67' 3-3 90' red card (second yellow) Vlasiadou PAOK eliminated without a win (only draws). Next year better luck, girls!

I rate Qarabag higher than Qabala. But must be doable.

And Astana of Kazachstan. If I remember well APOEL lost last year of them in one of the qualification rounds.

Slovan was one of my favorites to draw. One of the weakest of pot 3.

APOEL with Olympiakos in group B. And Young Boys. Tough draw so far.

Group J with Fiorentina

Our women committed suicide. They drew 1-1 with KI despite 27 attempts for PAOK and only 3 for KI. The goal was scored by Tatiana Georgiou. As Apollon won again the next game has no importance as only one club advances. Apollon 6 PAOK 2 Hajvalia 1 KI 1

A Quick scan: Greece did almost the perfect job in Q4 a.k.a. P/O having only three teams left: 5 wins and one draw. Good for Greece are the elimination of Slavia Prague, Basaksehir, Split, Lokomotiva, Sønderjyske, Brøndby and Grasshopper. They represented countries around us. Good that Rapid Vienna lost at home after winning away with 0-4. Bad that Belgium did very good. All teams that started now in GS. Bad that Sparta Prague won 3-2 at the end and progressed to GS after 0-0 away and at home trailing 0-2 with the winner right before FT. Hope we all have a good draw tomorrow.

I want: 1 Plzen, and a little devil inside of me wants A#a* 3 Gent, Liberec, Maccabi or Zurich 4 Dundalk, Beer Sheva (Miguel Vitor) or Qabala (a win and nothing but a win as the first Greek team against the Azeri). Avoid: 1 They are all strong teams. Lets show them the magic of Toumba. 3 Young Boys, Krasnodar, Celta, Feyenoord and Southampton. 4 Sassuolo and Nice

Oly won 2-1. And as the points are "handed over" after extra time, Greece and Oly are awarded two points. So this is a win-win situation. The fans got 30 extra minutes of football for free and 0-0 would have been enough for GS but now they got GS and a bonuspoint.

PAOK must change view and ask for an immediate start of the SL.

Oly scores the equalizer. Now they must avoid a deadly second goal.

It ain't over till the fat lady sings. With Oly trailing 0-1 and thus the fear of elimination we can not celebrate. Especially as AZ Goes to pot 1 if Oly is to eliminated.

Yes. And this result will stand for 5 years. Tomorrow draw at 14.00 GR. We will be in pot 2.

Yes indeed, the crowd is entitled to be pleased.

Bravo. Quick goal. Grab those points for the coefficient. And avoid injuries.
