The first Athens derby of the new year ended in a 0-0 draw which gave Olympiakos the chance to move even further ahead in the standings after their 1-0 win against Asteras Tripolis. AEK started strong and managed to keep hold of the ball for long periods of time, especially during the first period. The most [. Click to continue reading...

Former Brazilian international Souza has been snapped up by Corinthians upon leaving Panathanaikos, despite only arriving from Flamengo last summer. The frontman failed to thrust his name into Henk ten Cate's starting-eleven plans and will charge Corinthian's strikeforce alongside three-times FIFA World Player of the Year Ronaldo as the "Timão" aim for championship glory on their return to the Brazilian Serie A.

Se preveían cruces difíciles para los equipos españoles en los octavos de la Champions. Al final, el sorteo ha deparado todo lo contrario: a excepción del Real Madrid, que se medirá ante el 'Spanish' Liverpool, la fortuna ha estado de parte de los nuestros. El Villarreal se enfrentará ante el Panathinaikos, que a priori es [. Click to continue reading...

Grêmio's promising central defender, Léo, could be heading to Greece and Panathinaikos in the next few days ... Click to continue reading...

We've been a bit lax about posting lately. Mea culpa and all that. I went on a bit of a medical safari, travelling to Munich, Germany to have football-hero Dr. Muschaweck fix my chronic groin/pelvic pain, caused by a double sports hernia, just like DC United Captain Jaime Moreno. And former Newcastle captain Alan Shearer. Click to continue reading...

El diario The Sun se hace eco en su página web de unas declaraciones del defensa central del Chelsea Alex, en las que el brasileño asegura que le ha transmitido a la directiva de su equipo que se marchará en el mercado invernal.

It's Barcelona's to lose. Even the four one seeds teams who find themselves as potential opponents (Chelsea, Arsenal, Lyon & Inter - and they're Barca's only potential opponents) are desperately hoping to avoid the Barcelona lottery. The Catalans are simply, undeniably playing the best football on the planet right now. Click to continue reading...

Busy game for Asteras Tripolis player Adrian Bastia. Not only did he score a 70th minute equalizer against Panathinaikos (no vid, just story) in the Greek Super League - giving Asteras what we can assume to be a damn fine 1-1 draw away from home - but with full time approaching he ended a pitch [...] Click to continue reading...

"Panathinaikos' win is absolutely deserved. People may say they were lucky but I don't agree. After that performance we don't deserve to go through. We must be angry with ourselves."
Jose Mourinho surprisingly philosophical over Inter Milan's defeat to Panathinaikos, the first in their European campaign this season. Click to continue reading...

One certainly can't say Jose Mourinho had not warned his players earlier this week. On paper, a home match to Panathinaikos seemed like an easy routine job for Inter, just the Portuguese manager's concerns had a strong smell of pre-tactical (José-patented) "mindgames". Instead, those concerns were well-founded. Click to continue reading...

The Cinderellas are in group B, not A. Cluj was the underdog-come-good story to start out the campaign, and deservedly so. They beat Roma - though who didn't earlier in the season - and nil-niled (yes, that's a verb) with a then high-flying Chelsea team. Now, however, they've come back down to earth, and will be [.

AEK have yet to win away from home this season as they finished with a 1-1 draw Saturday evening against Xanthi. Overall, 1 point is allright from a game against a team that has the potential to win these kinds of matches. Basinas played in this match for AEK after coming back from injury. Greeksoccer.

The unconvincing performances under the leadership of Giorgos Donis, which started from this summer when AEK played Omonia, have continued to be displayed by the team. AEK drew 3-3 away against recently promoted Thrasivoulos after playing a game of football which if played against any other team would have led to a much worse result [. Click to continue reading...

4 seeds are the new 3 seeds; or, Transylvanians, Cypriots & Belarusians are legit. BATE were very fortunate to be eying a blonde Austrian rather than a turban-sporting Italian in net, but they were never predicted to sneak a deserved point. Cluj proved their Roma win was no fluke, even if they used a vastly different [. Click to continue reading...

One of Greece's most talked about prospects secured an extension with Panathinaikos, as Sotiris Ninis signed a two-year extension to extend his contract through 2012. With two years still remaining on his contract, the Athenian club locked up the 18-year-old for a further two years. Having made his breakthrough with Panathinaikos Click to continue reading...

As we approach the one year anniversary of the Top 25, the Soccer Source ranking committee was faced with arguably our toughest task yet: deciding this week's #1. The identity of the top club was of course cast into doubt after last week's #1 was outplayed and outcoached for large portions of yesterday's game, which came against a team that did not even field its best player.

European heavyweights Liverpool, FC Barcelona, Chelsea and Inter Milan opened their Champions League campaigns with victories Tuesday. But the most striking results on the first night of the group stage came from the competition's newcomers on the road, with Romanian team CFR Cluj upsetting AS Roma 2-1 and Anorthosis Famagusta of Cyprus holding Werder Bremen 0-0.

Olé José. Julio Cruz's likely destined to leave a big "ass mark" on the subs bench this season, but Inter Milan is "cruising" nonetheless. Carried forth by the genius of Ibrahimovic, the timely finish of Amantino Mancini, and a new-found Adriano (ok, he only played for 10 minutes... but that's stil good right?

Italian Champions Inter Milan dented the hopes of a positive start to the group stages for Panathinaikos, with a 2-0 win at the Olympic Stadium in Athens tonight.
