The death of George Baldock has shocked and greatly affected everyone in the National team.
No one can think of tonight’s game with her England in “Wembley”, no matter how great the occasion.
The Greek internationals cannot concentrate on the match, having lost a teammate so unexpectedly and in a shocking way…
Nevertheless, they are invited to compete normally against the “three lions” in the “jewel” of London.
As reported from London by Sotiris Tabakos to News Bulletin 247 and as commented by EPO a little later, yes, there was a question about the possibility of postponing the match, but this was in no way possible.
“Following repeated contact with the highest levels of UEFA since last night regarding the staging of tonight’s match, there was no room for it to be postponed.” reported by the Hellenic Football Federation.
The fact that there are no dates to move the match to another point in the season is why the UEFA people made it clear that there can be no postponement.
They asked the relevant question from the EPO and only in case they heard from the European Federation that a solution could be found, they would also talk to the Greek internationals to decide the fate of the encounter with the English.
