Yesterday started the League Cup "Nikos Samaras". PAOK won the first two matches against Komotini 3-0 (Djuric 19/29) and Ethnikos Alexandroupolis 3-0.
Thanks. I'll try to write all the rosters in the next days. I really like the greek league.
Olympiakos once again looks stronger on the paper. Let's see if PAOK will beat them this season.
After Ethnikos Pirea another greek team will not play (Iraklis Chalkidas). Now they are 10 teams but it will not be a new draw, so only 4 matches each week.
The SFs of league cup will be:
Olympiakos-PAOK
Foinikas-AEK
What's going on with Iraklis Chalkidas?
no money...also they didnt take part in the league cup
Moreover Masiel had serious problems and will not play volley this year, Mantekas had problems with his job, left AEK for Iraklis Chalkidas and finally will play in switzerland. Filip Stoilović and Giannis Markou will replace them.
1st week
Iraklis - Kifisia 3-0
Sotiriou 11 (6/12) - Hunt 13 (12/35)
Pamvohaikos - Foinikas 3-0
Oliveira 15 (12/20), Gladstone 15 (8/12) - Evandro 12 (11/18)
Komotini - PAOK 2-3
Dalakouras 20 (17/37) - Djuric 13 (11/29),Gkortsianuk 13 (8/26)
Not sure how I can say it, but PAOK looks way weaker than last season...
Almost every season in the first matches they dont play good. Also its common for them to change players during the season.
Panathinaikos and Olympiakos are playing their hearts out in the derby. PAO surprisingly played on the same level of Olympiakos in this first set. The red-whites won it anyway...
Panathinaikos crashed Olympiakos all-star team in the second set.
Olympiakos returned the favor in the third set. The team improved brutally with Tervaportti.
Not sure how I can say it, but PAOK looks way weaker than last seaso
No its not....We have a new team...Jimenez arrived from Cuba 3 days ago and i just want our players will not get injured..esp Djuric
Fourth set goes to Panathinaikos. The greens are fighting and showing way more heart than the all-stars Olympiakos so far.
Yordanov killed the opponents' passing from the service line. The others did their part. They're all playing amazing.
The 2 OH of Panathinaikos are 17 and 18 years old...
