He should have got the call up in the first place.

Sport24 say Bakasetas sustained injury in the 2nd half today after scoring a beautiful goal in the first half. Our key players always seem to pick up injuries right before qualifiers. What does Poyet do now if he is not ready to go vs Ireland?

The toughest opponent Greece will have faced since going to Spain for a WCUP qualifier. A match were the Ethniki managed a 1-1 draw. If we can get that here it would be a huge bonus point and we can build of it going into the match with Holland but this will be a much harder task. We will have to hope the top French players like Mbappe, Griezman, Camavinga, Rabiot etc not play after along domestic and international season.

When I heard that he wasn’t included in the team I was stunned!! Can’t understand it

Definitely, it will be tough but we should get a 1nil win

WTF are PAOK doing? Come on

AZ Alkmaar advance on penalties! Pavlidis celebrating! He was amazing in the first half. I just want him to bring this level to the Ethniki.

Definitely

Only 4 minutes added time?

Terrible panenka

Shitty pen squeaks through

Handball?

PAOK backline looks rattled

Terrible error

Yes I was very impressed with Siopis he’s a pit bull running and throwing great tackles all over the pitch. Douvikas should have got a call up for sure. He just needs that one decent chance and he will finish like he did in a NL match vs Kosovo. I like Pavlidis he works hard finds the space but there’s been a number of matches where he has not been sharp. Last friendly was one of his worst performances and he looked really frustrated. We need him to score especially vs these weaker countries. The guy scores some spectacular goals in Holland so I expect more from him. If we get our strikers scoring at just a decent rate then we will be really difficult to beat as our mids are producing goals too.

France won at Ireland 1 nil. Ireland came close to equalizing but Maignan made a huge save. Great result for Greece. We will have to be ready for Ireland they look much improved recently and played well today. In other group action Holland won 3 nil over Gibraltar.

First half was great how we moved the ball quickly and created so many chances. Their goalie made some great saves especially in the opening half. Our problem is as always we barely get goals from our strikers. Pavlidis was really disappointing couldn’t take a chance & he even took a through ball away from an open Mantalos running in at the back post. Giakoumakis didn’t do much coming on. Douvikas should have got a call up! Bakasetas was strong today. Fortounis spreads the ball around so beautifully and his vision is stellar. Good thing this was not a qualifier but we need to be winning these matches vs Lithuania and Malta to get our ranking up so we don’t get another horrible draw for the 2026 World Cup.

Terrible result

Definitely. Very frustrating
