U-21 NT (Elpidon)

[Alphonse]

What a horrible run of form the last few games now 

[Antaeus7]

Losing to Lithuania 2-0 was very embarrassing 
But, Greece can win out the final 2 matches at home to Czech Republic and Scotland to grab second place, which I believe will get them a playoff spot?

all there players are gone...only retsos left

[Antaeus7]

A straight red card to Lymperakis 
Greece down to 10 men

[Blackhawk]

What a pathetic display of football by the Greek U21 team. have not created a single scoring chance in a game that we play on home turf.

0:2 the final score.

[Antaeus7]

Czechs win 2-0 over Greece, they dominated since the red card. 

[Blackhawk]

They dominated the whole game. Greece was very bad. 

[Ellada2004]

WTF is going on? we started the campaign off very well. 

[Dutch Eagle]

Today the U21 won 1-0 against their peers of Scotland. Goal scored by Efthymios Christopoulos.

[Antaeus7]

The losses at home to Croatia and Czech Republic along with Lithuania away really killed off any hope of Greece qualification for the Under-21 European Championships.

To think they started off so well...

 

[Ellada2004]

They finally picked up a win vs Scotland and ended that bad run of results. Ethniki could have qualified.

Not a bad group. Should get 2nd.

You can watch the U21 Euro qualifier against Cyprus on the EPO Youtube channel:

Game just started.

[Blackhawk]

No improvement for the U21 national team as the game ended in a 0:0 tie. 

[Alphonse]

Goumas has to go, this teams development and results have been shocking with him!

[Blackhawk]

Agree. We need a better coach.

[Dutch Eagle]

Your wishes were granted. Goumas resigned. 

[Blackhawk]

Doesn't mean a better coach will take over.

[Dutch Eagle]

They won today 0-5 away against Liechtenstein. HT was just 0-1

[Dean97]

They had a slow first half and wasn’t so inspiring. Zagaritis looked good. Was taking most of the set pieces. 2nd half we lifted the tempo and were more clinical. Alexandropoulos is too good to be playing u21s. He’s more useful for the men’s team. Good to see the team score 5 goals against that kind of team. 

[Blackhawk]

2:0 away win against Belarus with Diamantis and Sardelis scoring the goals. With this win we go to the top of the table but other teams played less games. Next game is against Cyprus away on 12.10.2021

Standings after todays game:

1. Greece     8  (4 games)
2. Cyprus    7  (3)
3. Portugal  6 (2)
4. Iceland    4  (3)
5. Belarus    0  (3)
6. Liechtenstein  0  (4)

The 2 ties against Cyprus (home) and Iceland (away) will probably cost us the qualification from this group.

Ten (10) U21 player are infected with COVID-19 and the game against Cyprus  scheduled for tomorrow will not take place.
