Following Tuesday (10/6) the friendly with the Bulgaria in the Pancreas, where the record of our representative band improved in 5-1-0.

In the coach’s mind:

With 4-2-3-1 Jovanovic lined up the national team. Mandas debuted under the beams, with Koulierakis and Retsos being the twin on the stopper, with Vagiannidis and Giannoulis being the back. Kourbelis and Zafiris in Huffs, Karetsas, Konstantelia and Tzolis the Trinity behind Pavlidis.

With 4-3-3 Slovakia. At the end of Dubraffa, Skrianar with Vavros on the stopper, while a Hudsko mid -back. Khosovsky in a defensive tackle, while Bero and Dundas had a more creative role. Strands and tuftas were on the “wings”, with Strels at the top.

The match

The match had a good pace from the beginning, with both teams playing open. Tuftas (2 ‘) and Zafiris (3’) warmed with starvation in the start. The first big moment belonged to the National, with Pavlidis shooting in the 7 ‘and Dubrafas chasing, while Newcastle’s goalkeeper said “no” to the frame that fired a shot.

Slovakia touched 1-0 at 11 ‘as lost a penalty. Strelets fell nicely and the Mandas He overthrew him. However, the Greek goalkeeper took his blood back, pushing the Dunda execution in his right corner, and then stopped Strance.

Greece opened the scoring at 16 ‘. Kourbelis started the attack, Jolis carried the ball many meters and distributed to Pavlidis who was unable to beat Dubfrakas, but the ball was raised and the Constandelia He sent her to the net with his back after aerial duel.

Greece had a great opportunity for 2-0 in 20 ‘. Zafiris stole, Constantiles distributed and Pavlidis He shot on the bodies and then missed a header. In the 25th, Karetsas fired a foolishly shot, probably influenced by his enthusiasm after Pavlidis’ pass. The latter fired at 29 ‘sweets from the boundaries of the area, but a little outside.

From the lost penalty of Slovakia to 34 ‘Greece dominated, had several opportunities and was not threatened at all. However, in their first good time, the guests after the dual life-saving of Mandas, succeeded in making it 1-1. Strelets gave vertically to Hudsko (who seemed to be offside), with the latter sending the ball into the net with elaborate finish.

The Kaltsona team took up after the equalizer and worked well off, creating problems in our defense. Hudsko threatened with a header two minutes later, while at 42 ‘ Fresco If he had not done a bad control he would be a face with the Mandas. In the 43 ‘, Slovakia had a great opportunity for 1-2, when after Retsos’ mistake just outside the area, Tupta took and executed, with Manda pushing with his right foot. Even in the delays he had a phase, with the Bero to view the penalty shoot -out and Lazio’s goalkeeper to remove.

In the second part, the first good moment of Greece and the match came in the 61 ‘. THE Pavlidis He was in a shooting position after Constantelia’s attempt, but failed. Ethniki made it 2-1 in the 66 ‘, with Giannoulis crossing, Massura shot on Skrianar and Pavlidis running in the net. Then they followed gathered changes of the two coaches and the image of the race was very broken until chemistry was found again.

However, he had another … bread the game. In the 88th, Pelkas took vertically for Massura, who in his attempt to dribble fueled Duvikas he executed closely. In delays from Massura’s new move, Duvikas went back to the re -take, with Harsar jumping and sending the ball into his team’s nets.

MVP: Difficult to get more valuable player than such a friendly. They stood out Tzolis and Constantelia, while in the end, Massauras “unlocked” the opposing defense, who came off the bench.
