Dutch Eagle

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.

Smart goal of Noboa with his knee.

Total ecstacy in Rostov. Savvidis must be proud.

Not watching the game, Rockafeller. Checking my livescore. APOEL convicted to EL. Copenhagen just scored the 1-1 and thus 1-2 aggregate.

APOEL 1-0 up. 1-1 aggregate. 12 minutes to play.

I'm watching it now after my twins played a game themselves. 020 is pathetic (in the league too, as they already are 5 points behind). As they were against us. We should have been up 3-0 or 4-0.

The Draw of round 1 was made today. Don't know if EPO also will draw for round 2 today. Τα ζευγάρια της 1ης φάσης Παναιγιάλειος-Σπάρτη ΟΦΗ-Ν. Αχαρναϊκός Οι αγώνες της 1ης αγωνιστικής θα διεξαχθούν στις 30-31/8 & 1/9, ενώ αυτοί της 2ης αγωνιστικής στις 6-8/9. The below mentioned teams have a bye and progress automatically to round 2. Αγροτικός Αστέρας, Αιγινιακός, Αναγέννηση Καρδίτσας, Απόλλων Σμύρνης, Άρης, Καλλιθέα, Καλλονή, Κισσαμικός, Λαμία, Πενελευσινιακός, Πανθρακικός, Πανσερραϊκός, Τρίκαλα, Χανιά.

Chatzigiannidou scored the goal in minute 57'. Reading the blog on inpaok.com it looks like PAOK had more chances. But the others had chances too. It will be difficult to progress as Apollon is considered the better team according to the seedinglist.

The girls just started their European campaign for this year. They are playing in Paphos against Hajvalia of Kosova. This is the lineup: 11αδα του ΠΑΟΚ: Πελετίδου, Γεωργίου, Γιάννου, Κακαμπούκη, Πατερνά, Αδαμάκη, Βλασιάδου, Χατζηγιαννίδου, Παντελιάδου, Μπραμέ, Γκάτσου. Good luck, girls!
