He tried but he failed. JVS did better than coach Ange but he could not even get us into the playoff even Skibbe achieved that. What is troubling is that he has left out players that should have been here. I just do not trust him to lead us for the Euros where we possibly could get handed a tougher group and if that's the case I cant see him succeeding. Remember he could not even top a group with Slovenia, Moldova and Kosovo in the NL!

Greece should have had 2nd in this group, Sweden were very fortunate to beat us last game out. JVS has to take most of the blame we had a lead vs Georgia and tied and a lead in Kosovo into extra time were we conceded a silly goal a game were instead of going to kill the game off JVS played scared. Its soooooooo gutting to miss another major tournament! I do not trust JVS to lead us into Euro 2024 qualifying. I don't trust him with his tactics and player selections that will cost us points again vs countries we should be beating. JVS should go Project Qatar failed, but EPO will keep him on

Douvikas has to come on and Tzolis

I could not see anything in that penalty? Spain are dominating but FIFA want to make sure Spain don’t miss a World Cup.

BS penalty!!

TBH we did not deserve the win vs Georgia but we were up a goal in the 75th minute. Had we got those wins and at least a draw last game vs Sweden then 1st place would have been attainable.

Sweden have a +7 GD that they built by blasting Kosovo twice.. Sweden were totally outclassed by Georgia. Away from home they have only 1 win in the last seven and that was at Kosovo. It sucks that Greece could not get that early goal in Sweden, it would have changed the match and we would have been in a great position!

Lindeloff and the Sweden back line are a totall mess!

Goal Georgia 2 nil the wonder kid again

I wanted Douvikas to start this game

Georgia are playing well and are tough at home. I said here that they always seem to get results at end of qualification. Sweden are fortunate they beat us last time out. Let’s hope we can pull out a win!

If this result holds up then Sweden will have to go all out vs Spain which we need then to do and get a result in Seville.

Sweden Defense caught scrambling

Georgia 1 Sweden 0

If Georgia can get a result it will make the final game Sweden vs Spain a battle for 1st place even if Greece find away to beat Spain.

According to CBS sports Spain will make the playoffs even if they finish 3rd in the group as a result of them making the NL final. So if Sweden wrap up the group with a win in Georgia then Spain could theoretically lose the their remaining games and they would still get into the playoffs? In that case its better if Sweden get a win in Georgia making the last game vs Spain not meaningful.

I was hearing that in the media. I hope he comes to his senses, we need Tsimakas running at Spain on the counter and putting crosses into their box. JVS better get the lineup right!

Nova Sport FM have confirmed Ansu Fati will be out for Spain in this match due to a thigh injury he picked up in Barcelona's last game vs Celta de Vigo.

The boys will fight hard in this game at home. They will be up for playing one of the best teams in World football. Spain will knock the ball around the pitch we just have to be patient and hit them on the counter. I can see Greece getting 1 goal in this one. It will be tough hopefully we can squeeze out a win and make the final day of qualifying very interesting. GO HELLAS!!!

Good luck too you!

Bakasetas left todays game vs Bestiktas with an injury. He is suspended for the Spain match but its unknown whether he will play vs Kosovo.

Sweden for sure got lucky vs Greece as JVS himself said post game to their reporter.. They also deserved to lose our drop points in the first game to of qualifying to Georgia as they were outplayed. Olsen saved them a few goals against. Even at home to Kosovo they did win 3 nil but they had multiple calls go there way when the game was close. Sweden are fortunate to not be sitting on 10 or 11 points.

You make good points if we had beaten Georgia & Kosovo we would be on 13pts and in great position for 2nd spot. It also sucks that Spain & Sweden play the last game vs each other. I wish they would have played earlier on. We have to hope that Georgia at least get a draw vs Sweden and that will make Sweden play for a result. Georgia seem to get results in their final qualifiers over the past few campaigns. So let’s hope they play hard. As for Greece I can see us battling Spain hard as we always do vs the top countries. If we end up winning the next 2 matches but fall short of second place it will be due to the lost points to Kosovo & Georgia which will be really tough to take..

Luis Enrique released his squad. Ansu Fati has been recalled. Due to injury Spain will be without midfielders Pedri Gonzalez and Marcos Llorente. They will also be without forward Ferran Torres and striker Mikel Oryazabal.

Hopefully he can score a goal vs Spain.
