Chris Tsamados Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 What's this ref doing. another sending off for us.
GreekLunatic Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 from others predicting a 3-0 4-0 loss I will take a 1-1 2
HellasLEAF Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Fantastic result considering. The team showed up to play today. 1
FrappeFetish Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 This is a very promising result. We can be disappointed given the likelihood we had to win before Tachtsidis was sent off, but if you were to tell me we would be 1-1 against Belgium this morning, I would've considered that a great outcome. Our defense proved itself against one of Europe's best attacks (even without their two stars). 3
Antaeus7 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 This is a fantastic result, consider the crap Greece have to go through. We are still in second place. 1
HellasLEAF Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 The ref never should have given second yellow for that dive. But still he did very well today called a pretty even match.
J1078 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 The ref just took 1st place away from us. Piece of s%$#!. The boys played there asses of and played rock solid defense and very organized in the back.. we deserved a lot better. we frustrated the hell out of Belgium and took advantage of there mistakes. Great job great result but it should have been a win if we had 11 players on the field. 3
Polikastano Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 That was some serious parkage of the bus, they could only hold on for so long. All in all im very surprised with this result. A tie away against Belgium is very very impressive. Well done to the boys. 1
nick Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Fantastic game by almost all of the players. Our left side defensively was excellent with tzavellas and stafylidis. Tachtsidis should have been taken out at half time. He was clumsy in the first half and lazy with his passes. mitro continues his form with that fantastic finish. In a huge game like this I thought kapino did fantastic. Big losses for Bosnia game though with suspensions 1
GreekLunatic Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 some of the belguims should join there Olympic diving team 3
Rockafeller Skank Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 The ref was fine. Last call up was actually Sokratis fouling Lukaku and not the opposite which was given from him. Stop trying to imply we got screwed I found him very helpful instead.Many refs would give Samaris' handball as a penalty. 1
Dean97 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 F***en ref. I'm also pissed off that Belgium equalized. We deserved much better today. We fought hard but can play better in attack. Imagine if we won. The win would of done a world of good for us.
paokarag4 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Very very good result. If Taxi hadn't been sent off I dare say we hold on for a win. Up until the red card the belgians looked toothless in attack. In the end took a huge double save from Kapino to get the result but we take it. Keeps us in second place, and more importantly maybe, it means we can go to Bosnia and afford a draw. Huge result in every single way. 1
Polikastano Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I also dont understand the bad talk about the ref. I thought he was generous to us on many occasions. I know it hurts but that was definately a yellow card on Taxi . I cant comment on the injury time as i stopped watching after they tied it because i was certain they were gonna pop in another one.
J1078 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I have been negative about the teams play up until this point as I don't think we've played well at all but today I have nothing negative to say these boys played their asses off if we had 11 players on the field we would've won this game. We frustrated Belgium as they had no answer for our defense. A couple guys struggled on our team and gave them all away pretty easy but overall great performance great defence of effort great result.
Omonoia9 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Group H Standings Belgium-13 Greece-11 Bosnia-Herzegovina-10 Cyprus-4 Estonia-4 Gibraltar-0 1
Rockafeller Skank Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Just proves our playstyle is Park the bus and wait for the opponent. We look clueless vs Gibraltar and Estonia. Bosnia we looked fine. Belgium we looked equal to them. That's huge, even if the result was a 2-1 loss for us, at least until the red card we looked decent appearing.
Dean97 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Samaris was very average for me today. Maybe I'm expecting him to play killer passes and try and create something further up the field. But I get what his job is, his job is to stay deep and help out the defence. Tachtsidis should have not gotten a second yellow. The foul wasn't that bad. We have 4 maybe 5 key players missing in our next big match against Bosnia. I also think Stafylidis is a liability in defence. You can't trip over yourself like that and he almost cost us an own goal. Positive of the match was we were focused and determined throughout the match. We were organised and pressed them well. I just hope we see the same in the next match. We were so close to a win, a win that would've helped us.
