Matos ended the game yesterday somehowe injured and won't play. Giannoulis and Augusto will be examined and therefore are a questionmark for this game.

[pash]

Soares should be more than enough for this game...

[Dutch Eagle]

No Zivkovic for this game, what I expected. No reason mentioned though. Could be because of that stupid rule of having some youngsters in the squad. Could be because of his play lately. 

No Matos and Douglas Augusto either because of minor injuries.

Squad: Πασχαλάκης, Παπαδόπουλος, Ροντρίγκο, Βαρέλα, Ίνγκασον, Μιχάι, Γιαννούλης, Μιχαηλίδης, Βιεϊρίνια, Τσιγγάρας, Μαουρίσιο, Μίσιτς, Εσίτι, Πέλκας, Μπίσεσβαρ, Λάμπρου, Λημνιός, Σφιντέρσκι, Άκπομ.

[Blackhawk]

My lineup:

-------------------- Paschalakis -------------------
Rodrigo - Ingason - Varela - Giannoulis
------------ Misic ----------- Esiti ------------------
Limnios --------------------------- Biseswar
---------------------- Pelkas -------------------------
---------------------- Akpom ------------------------

My prediction:  1:1

[pash]

Does a Giannoulis yellow in this game result in a direct suspension in the league (since he hasn't yet served that chosen game suspension yet)? Or are the two unlinked?

[Blackhawk]

Only red cards are linked. Giannoulis will serve his 1 game ban against Tripoli.

[Yiankos]

Πολύ καλή ενδεκάδα Χρήστο. Εγώ θα ξεκινούσα τον Βιεϊρίνια στη θέση του Μπίσεσβαρ. Πιστεύω σε αυτό το ματς θα κάνει δύο καλές ενέργειες για να βγάλει ασίστ ή να σκοράρει.

[Blackhawk]

The actual lineup:

Apparently the weather is very bad in Crete (rain and windy).

[pash]

Misic as an attacking midfielder. Ferreira really is just Lucescu in disguise (Shakhov)...

[Blackhawk]

Looks like Laola1.tv no longer carries Greek Cup games, so hopefully someone can find streams.

Doesn't work for me. Blocked by the IP department at my work.

[Dutch Eagle]

Our first, second and third captain aren't playing. Who is our captain now a.k.a. who is longest serving of the starting 11?

[Blackhawk]

Lucky not to be down 1:0 thanks to a big save by Paschalakis.

[Blackhawk]

Actually it was Ingason that saved the goal.

Varela is the captain.

[Blackhawk]

Goal Limnios.

[Dutch Eagle]

0-1 Limnios

[pash]

Caught the last second of that goal - looked pretty good

[Blackhawk]

Biseswar 2:0

[pash]

Goal Biseswar, easy as pie

[Blackhawk]

Another great pass by Misic.

[Yiankos]

Παιχνίδι παρόμοιο με τον Α.Ρ.Η., η διαφορά είναι ότι σκοράραμε και στις δύο ευκαιρίες μας και ο ΟΦΗ κάνει τραγικές επιλογές στο τέλος.
