Will be on Sportsnet. I like to watch it at home because I pace around like crazy during these matches :)

yeah thinking of ordering it and just watching with my dad and maybe inviting friends over.

I actually want to watch the game though, it often ends up becoming social hour and hard to actually hear commentary and s%$#!. If anything might do frappes though as that's where I usually go.

True, for me too I like to focus on match and listen to the commentary.

[georgelaz]

always good to wheel the mounares on danforth though at half time lol

anyone got streams (ideally with greek commentary)?

anyone in toronto going out to watch the game? (If so where at?)

Wegz stadium Bar in Vaughn is showing the game also. A few of the guys are watching there.

It's on ESPN3(ESPN's internet channel) in the US. ESPN2 is showing Northern Ireland-Switzerland. The good news is, the return leg on Sunday in Piraeus is on ESPNNEWS.

[OFIMTL]

Καρνέζης, Μανιάτης, Τζαβέλλας, Παπασταθόπουλος, Παπαδόπουλος, Τζιόλης, Σάμαρης, Ζέκα, Σταφυλίδης, Φορτούνης και Μήτρογλου η ενδεκάδα σε διάταξη 4-2-3-1. #Ethniki

[Brklyngrk]

In UEFA's official lineup, it's Samaris instead of Zeca. In fact, Zeca is not on the bench either....something seems odd...

 

 

 

[bbaw]

we will be fine.....

so long as we play our A game, cant ask for much more than that. 

if they beat us straight up, then thats that...tip your hat. 

just hope they dont sit back and let croats get into a rhythm. (which is what they almost always do) tactically i think that is a mistake.

Just realized, UEFA only listed 10 names for us in the lineup....was that an accident???

[bbaw]

maybe FIFA determined ZECA spells his name wrong given he is on a greek team so they banned for the next two games.....

I see a lack of a #8. Is #8 Zeca? Could that be it?

 

EDIT: Yes, I'll edit that in.

@tantra129
That's what I said, we are just a group of individuals. Our individuals are better than Greek ones, but you function better as a team.

Mandzukic is out, Kalinic in.

[MelbourneGreek]

If most of the croatian team team is on a yellow, can some of the players miss the second leg?

Yes if they receive another yellow they miss Sunday's game..

[J1078]

Don't like this start at all.

Parking the bus. What else?

[J1078]

2 corners 2 free kicks and a scramble in front I'm 6 min. We are going to concede if we keep doing this

[Blackhawk]

Stupid penalty.

[Omonoia9]

Yellow against Karnezis, penalty for Croatia

[Omonoia9]

Modric takes it and hits, 1-0

[J1078]

Karnezis is an idiot.. what the f... is he thinking.. this game looks to get out of hand quickly..

Edited November 9, 2017 by J1078

[trotsk13]

So freaking bad

[Antaeus7]

Modric scores from the spot

Croatia 1:0 Greece
