Ellada2004 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Koulouris with some silly fouls and picks up the yellow card. 1
Ellada2004 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Just now, Alphonse said: 30 mins in, Bakasetas yet to touch the ball LOL.. He's a waste..
Omonoia9 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Italy substitution: Bernardeschi IN Chiesa OUT
J1078 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) They actually looked pretty solid. Liminos has good pace and they closed on the Italians well. Overall a very good half against a much stronger opponent then us. Edited October 12, 2019 by J1078
kbxk508 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Going to plan. I have to say the tactics are spot on. As players get tired, JVS can bring on Donis and Pavlidis and see what they can do. Zeca is a workhorse. 1
nick Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Most well organized half of soccer from Greece in a couple yrs, and that’s with playing 1 man down with bakasetas out there. Luminous looks to be a solid addition and offers some serious pace 2
Alphonse Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Moving well as a unit, some good pressing and defense is going good. Nothing in attack unless Limnios is involved which lead to the games best chance so far. Italy have done their home work and know how to get possession back which we keep giving them. Very big opportunities for Donis, & Fetfa do weave some magic if they get a chance. Mantalos can help the midfield hold the ball but go forward too 1
Jimmyp Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 That wasn’t such a bad half. I’m impressed. The only complaint I have is that spinach guy is having his way down that wing. 1

Siovas needs to START every match going forward.

kbxk508 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Italy had 79% possession but didn't really create anything. Greece not afraid to press up and on occasion box them in their last third. Limnios doing well on the RHS. The longer it stays 0-0 the more interesting it will get as I'm sure Italy will press and we may be able to get them on the counter. 1

Omonoia9 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 By the way, it's weird seeing Italy in green. Logically it makes sense, but we know Italy usually wears blue.
Omonoia9 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Insigne skies one over the net, good pressure by Chatzidiakos
Alphonse Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Some one in midfield needs to step up and hold the ball a little. We can’t keep giving Italy the ball like this
Omonoia9 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Limnios, great feed to Koulouris, he shoots! Off the side of the net! That was the chance!
J1078 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 How did He miss that?? Wow what a chance for Greece 1
Antaeus7 Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 It would be a miracle if Greece somehow scores 1 goal past Italy.
Alphonse Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 Penalty Italy... when we should have made it 0-1 krima
