[PaokCT]

I think the easiest bet for this game is both teams score. I see a 4-2 victory

[pash]

Camara will never start hahahaha

[PaokCT]

Heard there’s trouble outside the stadium. Expect a ban for a few games

Major downpour forces most of the fans to go shirtless.

They just showed a shot of about 15 Shamrock fans in gate 8, forcing PAOK to close the whole gate for them.

[Dutch Eagle]

Brandon almost 

[PaokCT]

Good start so far. Big save by Rovers GK

[PaokCT]

Another point blank save by Shamrock. Could easily be 2-0

[PaokCT]

Zivkovic just wide. 20 min 0-0. We are dominating possession and play. But still nothing to show

[PaokCT]

Schwab not having a great game. Already a few turnovers

[Dutch Eagle]

Honohan takes a stupid yellow for wasting time and he is suspended for the return.

[Dutch Eagle]

Brandon and Baba both missing by an inch.

[PaokCT]

Looking more and more like a 0-0 final

[Dutch Eagle]

Gaaaaaaooooolllllll Baba

[Blackhawk]

Nice goal.

[PaokCT]

Can someone explain why every time we win the ball we don’t look to counter quickly but instead pass it backwards

[PaokCT]

I don’t think this will count. I see a foul pulling the goal back

[Dutch Eagle]

VAR check.

[Dutch Eagle]

Looks like Jonny trips the defender. 

And it is 0-0 again. 

[Blackhawk]

What are these refs calling?

[Dutch Eagle]

Goooaaaalllll. Will this count?

[Blackhawk]

Gooal. Own goal.
