Hopefully Staf gets back in the fold soon and Tzavellas no longer gets selected.

HT Greece 1 Belarus 0 HT San Marino 0 Croatia 0 Come on San Marino!

Greece should be easily taking care of teams like Finland and Hungary. They're not France or Belgium. Our quality is much greater and we should only be looking at achieving wins.

I saw the same lineup.

he's there only attacking threat.

ya I couldn't believe it, when I saw he was about to sub off Mitroglou with a half an hour to go, our best striker and when the team needs a goal. It was like watching Venturo manage Italy during there playoff debacle vs Sweden.

On Friday Samaras announced his retirement from football. I enjoyed watching him play for the NT. Had that memorable assist to Salpi for the goal that beat the Ukraine in the 2010 World Cup playoff and the penalty kick goal he scored vs Ivory Coast in the 2014 World Cup. Efharisto and best of luck Giorgos!

I agree he's not a cutting it on the wing for the Ethniki, Skibbe should put him as an attacking mid.

Manolas said we are not afraid of Finland and that we are going in for the win and we will get the win. love it!

Greece need the win, the Finns will sit back and play for the draw. Finland are ranked lower than Hungary and they have a couple of good footballers. I will take the 1-0 trade mark win for the Ethniki.

Yes I heard this too, let's hope so!

Good assessment. Pelkas has been disappointing in these matches his decision making with the ball is awful at times. With Bakasetas I got so pissed when he gave the ball away in the 1st half and forced Sokratis to eat a yellow card. Does Skibbe not have a better option than him?

Yes was just thinking of that, but God i thought Estonia had them at a draw that would have really put us in the drivers seat. Your right they have Greece twice and Hungary in Hungary so won’t be easy for them.

That’s true but he loves to hit them from distance, I thought it was going to sneak in

positives... Greece win by our famous 1-0 Kept a clean sheet Sokratis and Manolas excellent games. mitroglou just needs one chance and it’s likely to go in, great header! Tzimikas played well... negatives.. Fortounis had a poor game by his standards Bakasetas was awful, lacks simple control and almost cost us a penalty at the end Skibbe subs, subbing in Tziolis although to be fair to him he was good for a change

Lazaros had a nice shot and was good save.he was running his arse off and battling for the ball.

I thought Estonia was going to hold them, they got one in the 92nd.

Bakasetas almost called for hand ball, yikes

finland score crap..

What a header! Great ball in

Mitroglou!

Put Fetfa in skibbe

Why Tziolis again RE vlaka?

Fortounis at the end of the half with a crappy cross and before that a bad corner. We need him to be much better.

We have no idea what ball to play in the final third
