We got the three points here. It wasn't a pretty three points but, at this point in time, I'll take them.

First, the video of our goal, set up beautifully by Nemeth.

Some good aspects to mention about our play today, but overall, it was not an impressive victory.

Our defence today was not the greatest, and Majstorovic and Juanfran in particular were quite poor.

An extremely disappointing result today for AEK in Giannena.

Our starting lineup consisted of Saja, Araujo, Majstorovic, Arce, Juanfran, Hersi, Guerreiro, Jahic, Manduca, Nemeth, Pavlis.

I can't comment much on the first half since I could only watch the second half, but from what I heard we saw some decent passing from the team.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored his first goal for Real Madrid during a 4-2 victory over Copa Libertadores 2008 and Copa Sudamericana 2009 winners Liga de Quito in the Peace Cup yesterday. Ronaldo notched the goal via 48th-minute penalty after being fouled in the box by defender Norberto Araujo. Madrid will now face Italian powerhouse Juventus in Sevilla on Friday [.

So, our first home game of the season (after the match against Olympiakos was cancelled), and it could prove to be a fairly difficult one. Iraklis have a strong squad and I believe they have the potential to cause trouble to any team in the league.

Nonetheless, our squad is also strong as well now so I believe we can take the win.

Some important comments to mention about yesterday's match.

Firstly, our to team put on a good performance. Even now more can be improved on. but it was a solid game for the most part with some enjoyable football.

This is definately a good result. On paper, Iraklis are certainly not a pushover this year with some pretty impressive signings being made for them over the summer.

AEK returned to the winners circle with a much needed but largely unimpressive victory over the team from Komotini at OAKA.The visitors actually took the lead in the 26th minute when Majstorovic got turned "inside out" by their striker Buval in the box and he left Saja clutching at air with a nice finish.

Well, our night went from good to about as bad as it could get. As you can see from the post below we were up 1-0 at half time.

The second half started and early on Majstorovic gets his second yellow and is sent off and Bate tie the game. So, one of our key players is sent off, the pitch condition is deteriorating (and it was disgusting to begin with) and we were loosing the control over the game we had before.

We got the loss here I was fearing. Perhaps not a pleasing result but immediately we notice the away goal we scored. This will help us alot since really all we need in OAKA now is 1-0.

Before anything else two points must be pointed out. Firstly, Scocco was out for this match due to cards and will play with us for the next match.

The time has finally arrived for the real AEK to stand up and make a statement about our intentions for the year.Quite simply,we must beat a team like Vaslui,we are a bigger clup with a prouder history and we can't afford to miss out on European competition 2 years in a row.I beleive Bajevic will employ a 4-2-3-1 formation,with Blanco as the spearhead.

We got a good win tonight at OAKA against a team that could have put up some difficulties. Unfortunately though, its quite late here, so I dont have time to post a review right now. Either I'll write it tomorrow or perhaps if either AEKMAN74 or AEKBaltimore watched the match they'll get something.

Well, our match in Giannena starts in a little under an hour. Our most likely starting lineup is said to be Saja, Araujo, Majstorovic, Arce, Juanfran, Jahic, Guerreiro, Hersi, Manduca, Nemeth, and Blanco. We will be going 4-4-2 with Blanco and Nemeth up front. A good line-up in my opinion, very strong, with some experienced players.

Well, there has been quite a bit of discussion in the post AEKBaltimore put up. Since the match alot has happened, most regarding the horrendous officiating at the match. But first, a review.

For everyone who has been following AEK you know how incredibly unlucky we tend to be, especially when it matters most.

Though the 2009 regular season is finished for them, the Aztex are still going strong. A number of players and other individuals were honored at a recent post-season awards banquet, and the team is still looking forward to a few bigger-than-usual exhibition games.
First, the awards:

• Yordany Alvarez - Fans' Player of Year
• Miguel Gallardo - Chantico's Army's Player of Year (more info)
• Eddie Johnson - Players' Player of Year
• Michael Callahan - Clubman of Year
• Ignacio "Nacho" Araujo (Univision Radio) - President's Award

Additionally, Eddie Johnson was just named to the All-League Second Team.

First off, the highlights:

AEKMAN74 posted a review earlier on this match which covered most of the main points so be sure to check that out as well. I'd just like to add a few things.

We lined up with Saja as keeper, Araujo, Arce, Majstorovic, and Georgeas (who played left back) playing defence, Hersi, Geurreiro, Jahic, and Manduca playing Midfield, with Scocco and Blanco playing attack.

Kanellopoulos has given his 13.5 % of shares to the amateur club so that they now have a 23.5 % share of the club. A pretty big share of the club indeed. Dimitris Hatzichristos as many of you will know is the head of the amateurs and Original21.

What will happen from this move nobody can say yet.

Uefa have dismissed Aek's appeal over the 3 match ban given to our Argentinian right full back Carlos Araujo,for his send off against Everton at Goodison Park in the first match of the Europa League.He therefore will miss the 2 matches against Bate and the away game to Benfica,returning for the last group game against Everton at the OAKA.

Ok, to be honest, I was expecting a loss for AEK here. Aris were considered favorites for this game and I think that's somewhat justified. Bearing that in mind, I'll take a draw here. Its never easy to win away against Aris, even on a good day.

I wasn't able to watch the match since it was satellite.

On Saturday one group of Argentines abroad got off to a very good start in a new campaign José Luis Brown's national Under 17 team beat Honduras 1-0 in the first match of their age group World Cup in Nigeria. Sergio Araujo scored the only goal of the game. Around the world in the [...]

So, a nice, relatively comfortable win on Monday brought us up from ninth to joint fifth.

We got the three points we so desperately needed, as well as a little bit of reassurance for the players and fans. Beating a team like Larissa with a score of 3-1 is always a nice thing. Sure, Larissa might not be at their best, but they are rarely an easy team to win against (I feel like I've said that many times already this season).

Diego, (who signed for Juventus in May), was back on the singles market for about an hour this month.

FYI, in this current economy, the window of opportunity to hook up with a footballer is mighty small - and getting smaller still, Kickettes.

Best to have some sort of GPS installed on your favourite player if you're serious about getting in there.

First off, enjoy the video.

Well I posted my review in the comments section of the previous post by AEKBaltimore, but here it is again.

I was nervous about this one before it started but still I had the feeling we would get the win. And we did.

Firstly, as for the game, the team played wonderful football, especially compared to what we were seeing just last week.

O 13º jogo do Mundial Sub-17, válido pelo grupo A, foi disputado hoje, na cidade de Abuja, no National Stadium, para uma temperatura de 25º C., jogaram as seleções da Argentina (6º no ranking da FIFA) e a seleção da Alemanha (5ª no ranking da FIFA).

O quarteto de arbitragem desse jogo, foi assim definido:

Primeiro Assistente: Redouane ACHIK-MAR
Segundo Assistente: Inacio MANUEL CANDIDO-ANG
Quarto Árbitro: Massimo BUSSACA-SUI
Aos 8 minutos do primeiro tempo, o camisa 11, Sergio ARAUJO, jogador do Boca Juniors-ARG recebeu o primeiro cartão amarelo do jogo.

This match proved one thing: This is the worst AEK we have ever seen.

The match started terribly, with plenty of chances for Panionios to score until the 21st, when they did manage to get their first goal. Riera and Estoyianoff absolute tore AEK up this evening. Estoyianoff was able to get past our defence with ease while Riera missed some dangerously close chances.

In the past, European clubs saw in Brazilians the road for success. So many players were hired that things may be changing. Below a list of Brazilians sent to second division in the main European leagues. Spotted here.

GERMANY
Energie Cottbus - Gilberto
Karlsruhe - Antonio da Silva

SPAIN
Real Bétis - Edú, Lima e Ricardo Oliveira

Couceiro ekibini kurdu



Gaziantepspor Teknik Direktörü Joce Coucerio´nun yeni sezonda beraber çalışacağı yardımcıları belli oldu. Portekizli teknik adam 6 Temmuz'dan itibaren kendi ekibiyle birlikte Kırmızı-Siyahlı takımda görev alacak.

Como ya lo hicimos con el campeón Vélez Sarsfield, ahora intentaremos analizar la gran campaña del Campeón sin Corona que perdió el título por un gol mal sancionado por el árbitro Gabriel Brazenas a ocho minutos del final.

Este equipo enamoró a hinchas propios y extraños, mostrando un fútbol exquisito, apostando por un juego rasante, al pie.

The last round of matches of the 2009 Argentine Clausura featured a "championship" game as 1st place Huracán traveled to 2nd place Vélez Sarsfield for a match the entire Argentine footballing nation would be mesmerized by. The match began as normal but after 20+ minutes the game was delayed due to visible hail slightly smaller than golf balls.

Diego, (who signed for Juventus in May), was back on the singles market for about an hour this month.

Everton rolled over AEK Athens on Thursday, winning 4-0 with goals from Joseph Yobo (10th), Sylvain Distin (17th), Steven Pienaar (37th), and Jo (82nd). Tim Howard needed one save for the shutout, but the end of the game didn't go as smoothly. With Athens playing a man down from the 55th when Carlos Araujo was sent off, Everton was also shown red in stoppage time.

Everton have started off quite slow in the Premier League, but apparently the Europa League is a whole different ballgame. Steven Pienaar and the rest of the squad kicked off their Europa League campaign with an opening match against AEK. One would think that Everton might get off to a slow start given the immense pressure of being in such a prestigious tournament, but I guess they missed that memo.

Argentina is off to a good start in the U-17 World Cup.

Another win today.

2-1 over Germany.

The goals were scored by River Plate defender Esteban Espíndola and Boca Juniors forward Sergio Araujo.

With the win today Argentina advanced to the second round.
