PAO in Europe 2017-18

[Lamiara ole]

We will face Gabala from Azerbaijan  in our first tie in European competition. This is a repeat tie (2015)which ended up in a humiliation that defies description for our team.  I want revenge!

[Antaeus7]

Halftime 1-0 Panathinaikos 

[Ellada2004]

Come on PAO get a 2nd

[Antaeus7]

PAO outshot them 18-3 and only have 1 goal to show for?

Panathinaikos must finish better if they want to advance further into the Europa League.

Odd result sometimes a 1-0 victory. Can go either way overthere. If you manage to score in the first quarter you have a good chance to take down the spell against Azeri teams. 

[Ellada2004]

PAO win 1-0, but it should have been at least 3-0

[Ellada2004]

PAO really should have finished off the tie today.

[Lamiara ole]

Very unlucky! Should have been at least 3-0!

The team is getting better with Ouzounidis who seems to be a guiding light !

[Ellada2004]

0-0 HT. PAO have had a few chances to get a goal and finish off Gabala!

[Ellada2004]

Goal again PAO 2-1!

Nice win! Gabala is garbage! lol 

[Lamiara ole]

Great win today. Off to the next one. We need to get into the group stage.

[Jimmy Prasinos]

Atletico Bilbao

[Antaeus7]

Both AEK and Panathinaikos got tough draws
Just got to give your everything

[Lamiara ole]

If we advance against Athletic Bilbao we are looking at a comeback in Europe.

These are the teams that I want to eliminate.

Good Luck to our boys!

[Ellada2004]

Tough draw but we can progress.

[Ellada2004]

Go PAO!!!

[Ellada2004]

Let's hope they get the job done. PAO need to be playing in Europe!

Great victory by PAO over Qabala.  Very well deserved as PAO were the superior team over both legs and it was nice to see a Greek team get one over Qabala.

Unfortunately I don't think PAO can do it over Bilbao who are a class (or maybe two) above.  Nevertheless, miracles happen and if anyone can do it Ouzonidis can.  He really is a great manager.  Good luck to PAO.

APOEL had no problem beating Athletic Bilbao over 2 legs a few months ago. 

Is this PAO team as good as APOEL though?

Tough draw but not impossible.

Its a tough draw but we could compete. Last year in europa we didn't play too bad in the stages, but we couldn't finish the chances and strama's team would be gassed by the 70th minute. Plus, we never got any calls from the refs. Now with ouzonidis in charge we have a great team atmosphere. Players that care and following the coaches philosophy. We need a good away result in the first game and we could do some damage in athens.
