The men’s national polo team wants to restart against Georgia tonight (Monday 8/1). After the defeat by Italy, the “blue and white” wants to return to victories, in order to seal direct qualification to the “8” of the European championship.
The first sprint is scheduled for 18:00 with live broadcast by ERT3. The team of Thodoris Vlachos wants to show a completely different face from the one they showed against the Italians and to… remind the team that defeated Hungary in the premiere.
Their current opponent suffered a heavy defeat by the Italians in the premiere with a score of 22-5, while they showed a more competitive face in the second matchday, but did not avoid defeat by Hungary, with 15-11.
If Greece come out of today’s game unscathed they will qualify directly for the quarter finals as second in group two and will wait to learn an opponent from the game of the 3rd from the first group and the 2nd of the third group.
In case it finishes in the third place of the group, it will play an extra game for the qualification, facing the second of the fourth group in the crossover.

1. Italy 6
2. Greece 3
3. Hungary 3
4. Georgia 0
Equivalence criteria:
*Scores in each other’s games
