Champions League
Leave the crazies to their yellow and black madness
AEK have turned around Dinamo’s cynicism and continue the Champions League with ironclad madness and the advantage of playing those big games at home. Greek football comes from the European intensive phase and offers emotions. Manos Nabrozidis writes.
With all these days of our teams giving away points and qualifications in our non-existent European football, everything would be wonderful if we weren’t at the center of it all discussing the murder of the late Michalis. At least there is this nugget that gives us the right to comment on the ball played by the Greek clubs and we somehow escape from the darkness…
She played soccer for five minutes
AEK’s qualification against the Croatians is of great value for many reasons. Those who were happy to qualify early at the game in Zagreb should take a crash course in history and football basics.
Dinamo was the pair’s favourite. This is a serious European team with experience in such competitions and an undisputed factory that produces good football players. A 100% selling club that won’t be ruled out within days due to the financial losses from the ban as AEK wreak havoc by selling three players for one: Livakovic, Sutalo, Ljubisic and if he were younger he would be maybe gone … also yesterday that excellent and quiet worker, Bruno Petkovic.
And what do we care about Dinamo after qualifying from AEK, someone will say, but here we shouldn’t give up football-wise, since with seals and signatures the cliché about the value of the loser applies. The yellow-blacks’ qualification was great in that it was also instructive, because if Almeida’s team hadn’t gotten into the AEK mood during those five minutes of madness, the sporting news would now revolve around the profile of Sparta and not Antwerp.
The game started with a good chance for the home side, but Levi Garcia missed it. Last season’s AEK ‘cannon’ hasn’t fared well in the first few official games and it seems he needs psychology to see the goal like that of rugby and not a keyhole. The aphorisms whispered around the name of Garcia should stop because this player has great qualities and when the switch is flipped, he will be idolized again. And let’s not forget that from now on comes Ponce, the Latin battleship that used to mediate in an AEK before the team was a team and was a respectable sacrifice of time to sit, watch and analyze it .
It wasn’t a good evening for the whole ensemble, but it has depth
Admittedly, AEK didn’t have a good night. Not that he didn’t try to gamble or take risks. Nothing to do with it. She wasn’t focused and it showed in the mistakes that created the goals.
Unnecessary foul on first and second Ljubisic made the pass and then runs from New Philadelphia to… Heraklion unconcerned and brilliant in Zagreb (but not in OPAP Arena) Mukudi can’t find a way to mark Dinamo’s 14 points and closes AEK on that one time off.
With nothing else to do, Almeida throws anything and everything into battle. It’s just as exciting for Union when you see the assistants handing out the shirts to the substitutes. There are a number of good options.
Gatsinovic changed the whole game, Mandalos performs an action in the lanes of battle area that is three classes above what he performed in Georgios Karaiskakis last year, and Araujo, the bionic with the… The Argentines form a trio that created a state of madness that brought the qualification.
hp The epilogue was written by Vida as if fate owed it to him. In the end he lost 3-1 with a header against Maksimir and qualified a few days later against his compatriots with a header.
PS2. Galanopoulos made us forget how good a player he is through injury and now that he’s healthy and smiling he’s reminding us of that in the best way. What beautiful movements on the ball, what confidence?

Former coach of Dynamo Kiev Alexander Showkovsky He should have been sacked in August after a poor performance in the Champions League qualifiers.
The blue-whites, who lost twice to Cypriot Paphos in the 3rd round of the European Cup (0:1 and 0:2), were relegated to the Europa League and then promoted to the Conference League.
“I know that Dinamo management believes that a change of coach could and should be made in the summer, after they lost to Paphos in the Champions League qualifiers.
Then an opportunity arose. But the necessary candidate was not available,” the source said.
Due to the lack of alternatives, the president of the Kiev club decided to leave Shovkovsky as head coach, but in November the Ukrainian specialist was nevertheless fired and left Dynamo.

We continue to examine the future of Donetsk shakhtar To buy tickets directly to the main stage Champions League 2026/27.
This will be possible if the place reserved for the team that wins the Champions League trophy is redistributed.
All important moments of the match are available in LIVE mode Telegram Sport.ua
Donetsk Miner They are in fourth place with a coefficient of 50.250 among the clubs competing for a possible position at the heart of the Champions League.
In the last European week, the Donetsk club added +2.625 points. This increase was achieved with a 0-0 draw with Croatian Rijeka in the 6th round of the Conference League and a sixth place in the main round final table.
Main rival Greek Olympiacos – 56,500 points remaining. The Miners can regain the 6,250-point lead if they perform well in the spring part of the European Cups.
It is interesting that Shakhtar lost the first place in the UPL (Cherkasy has the same number of points as LNZ – 35 points each), and Olympiacos lost the lead in Greece to the AEK team (36 points against 37). Ukrainian striker Roman Yaremchuk plays for the team of the city of Piraeus.
Positions rangers (59,250), 4th in Scotland and Copenhagen (53.375), placed 5th in Denmark, looks less competitive in the rankings due to its position in the national championships. Leader only in championships Dinamo Zagreb And RB Salzburg (44,000 each) but there is no certainty that the turn will come.
Let us remind you that if the cup holder buys a ticket to the Champions League through the national championship, there will be a vacancy in the main squad in the 2026/27 Champions League. In this case, a balance will arise again and if Shakhtar wins the UPL and is ahead of Olympiacos in the UEFA club rankings (or the Greek club does not become the champion of Greece), it can get a direct ticket to the base of the Champions League.
If the Piraeus team is higher in the rankings and takes advantage of the available space, the Donetsk club will start from the 4th quarter of the Champions League, not the 2nd quarter, in case they win in the UPL.

Pedri commented on the new format of the Champions League: An unexpected look from a football player
Barcelona midfielder pedri He answered the question about his attitude towards the new format of the Champions League with the general group stage.
“Do I like the new format of the Champions League? I can’t say with 100% certainty which format I like more: this one or the previous one?”
If I have to choose, I will do something new: There were more matches between strong teams in the first stage,” said Pedri, as quoted by Esquire.
Before the 2024/2025 season, the group stage of the Champions League consisted of eight groups of four clubs each. All participants played six matches in their respective foursomes, home and away, against each of the three opponents.
From the 2024/2025 season, a new Champions League format comes into force with a common group stage of 36 clubs; each participant plays eight matches, four away and four at home; The opponents are determined by lot.”
