Another 90 and another huge win for him and Hamburger. 92nd minute goal handing them the crucial 3 points in their bid to avoid the relegation play-off Good to see Kyriako finally getting some consistence mins

Benfica took on Porto in a top of the table clash. Game ended 1-1, with Jonas winning and converting a penalty for Benfica. Mitro played the whole 90 as did Samaris. The result keeps Benfica a point clear of Porto at the top of the table, with 7 games remaining. Looks like the title race is gonna go down to the wire.

April fool's i'd assume about the ivic article leaving

so basically we get guaranteed 4 derbies a season, (2 in the regular season + in the championship playoffs) does not seem like anything is gained from a footballing perspective. Only gain is selling more tickets (potentially) in the derbies/more $ from advertisers for the derby games. Can't see anyone jumping out of their skin to attend PAS vs atromitos 4 times a season.

Can't see this happening, but wouldn't it cause a stir if it did Roberto to PAOK?!?! http://www.contra.gr/Columns/contra-epithesi/paok/o-ivan-savvidhs-anapse-prasino-fws-gia-thn-apokthsh-romperto.4597442.html

crespo, canas, cimirot due to suspension I assume?

Very very good result. If Taxi hadn't been sent off I dare say we hold on for a win. Up until the red card the belgians looked toothless in attack. In the end took a huge double save from Kapino to get the result but we take it. Keeps us in second place, and more importantly maybe, it means we can go to Bosnia and afford a draw. Huge result in every single way.

we inspire weird hate in people, first Sokratis is pantsed and now tzav gets his honker pulled

ggooooaaaaaal mitro!!!!!!!!

very good half. Defensive rock solid. Sokratis and Manola have been very good. Kept Belgium to just 3 attempts, only one of which was on target. Samaris, taxi and tzavella all guilty of giving the ball away at times which has left us a little open. Only really disappointing thing is the few times we have gone into their half and into a decent attacking position we have been wasteful, bad touches/passes and the Belgians are off again. But hey we didn't go to Brussels to score! No doubt they will come out firing in the 2nd half so we'll have to keep it extremely tight and look for any chance to break

couple of time in the first 5 mins we have pressed them high up the pitch and won the ball back in dangerous positions. Nothing has come of it, but good to see us putting some pressure high up the pitch and making it tough for them to build from the back

no doubt taxi's ability to play a long ball is part of the reason he is starting

No Hazard and no De Bruyne is a big obvious plus for us. But they still have incredible depth in the attacking 3rd. Mirallas, Mertens, Carrasco; 2 of those 3 to start still looks pretty good. Add nainggolan, witsel most likely dembele and that midfield is miles ahead of ours. We all know that we are gonna play defensive and need to have a very good defensive game, Kapino (if he gets the nod) will need to have a big game. As I said earlier we are gonna need someone with pace to support Mitro and Fortounis when we do get a chance to break. Someone who is a direct runner and will be dangerous in space. Looking at our squad Gianniota is the only one that really fills that description. So for me, he has to start. (Manthati might also fit this role but no way he gets a start) Sucks the game isn't on TV for us in Australia, ESPN is showing portugal-Hungary and France-Luxembourg instead -.-

gonna be tough (was gonna be tough regardless) Pana always give us a hard time. The first leg will take place just a few days after we play them in the league at Toumba

so he literally grabbed his balls? didnt pull them or lil dimitri out? just grabbed them? seems like a harsh red

pelkas sent off? what for? LOL really grabbing his balls?

GOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!! At the death!!! Pelkas!!!!

another dokari in the 90th min.....

panionios down to 10

by the sounds of it we are peppering there goal, we just can't score we had a dokari earlier with Bisewar who sounds like he's been involved in everything in the first 15 of the 2nd half

thanks blackhawk

so no working links, lovely. can anyone recommend a radio station that i can listen to?

bianconero isnt working for me, which is annoying

Really hope the injury isnt connected to his previous one. If its the same shoulder it could mean problems for him and us. Hopefully he recovers fully and there is no further issues but I have a bad feeling he is going to have issues with it. The fall didnt even look bad, he must just have landed awkwardly on it It's also a blow to our season, I can't see Klaus or Kolouri providing the goals we need to make the cup final and win the playoffs. I more than happy to be proven wrong though

Nice to see Manthati/Androutso/siopis get a call up. Doubt we'll see any of them in action, perhaps manthati if we are chasing a goal. Fingers crossed Kapino gets the Besiktas and PAO game under his belt leading into this one. Glykos has been shaky over the last month. Not saying that Kapino is a superstar but I would take him over Glyko. Surely we won't see a midfield of Maniati/Tzioli/Zeca?
