I liked this move by Kone:

When you're winning 3-2 until the 82nd minute at home, you should not lose in an important game as this. This loss basically eliminated Greece from advancing to the 2009 finals.

any line ups

[paxiotis7]

thats a huge blow... i was starting to follow the u21 a bit and that game pretty much eliminated them

The U21 match between Greece and Albania on March 26 might not be played due to FIFA's suspension of the Albania Football Federation days ago...

[paxiotis7]

So what happens? The match is gonna be re schedualed.

Imo greece should get 3 points for this. Greece want to go any play the game but cant because the other teams pentatly.

^ The match has been rescheduled for August 20.

Greece tied in Albania 1-1. Christodoulopoulos scored at the 24th minute and Albania tied it midway through the second half.

[AEK-MTL]

Well that's disappointing. Pretty much the final nail in the coffin of a poor campaign (turning point was probably the 3-4 against Croatia at home).

[paxiotis7]

Why haev we had such a bad u21 team when our u19 teams have been great? Doesnt make sence, or is this the age that the greek trainers screw it up

[AEK-MTL]

The Elpides managed a 1-1 draw against Italy away. http://www.uefa.com/competitions/under21/f...0174/index.html

This result means we are officially out. :tdown: I did however, get a chance to watch about 20 minutes of the first half (right up until the Italian guy scored) and in that time, I saw one or two trigonakia from our side, which was heartening.

I can't believe that we couldn't watch this game on TV :tdown:

It was on Italian tv but then again, that doesn't help unless you're in the footprint.

Greece 1-0 Faroe Island

This game ment nothing but experience. Imo 1-0 vs faroe island is pretty bad

Greece-FYROM 3-1

[AEK-MTL]

Nice job by the Elpides. These games against FYROM and Lithuania are must-wins if we want to maintain any hope of qualifying for the final tournament. Good on ERT-SAT for showing it too.

Pliatsikas (Schalke) and Lambrou (Feyenoord) were called to the U21 team. Lambrou is a 17 year old GK, born in Athens, who was discovered by Feyenoord while playing for his 5X5 team in Chalkida

Greece beats Lithuania 1-0 (the game was played 2 months ago) and have won their first 2 matches. Next opponents are England and Portugal, respectively. Edited August 1, 2009 by plato-ny

England looked interesting against Holland.

It's a difficult group for Greece.
