Top 15 with only 3 euros is quite an achievement (1980 never happened)
Arguably the toughest matchday we had to date but we’re still going strong. Unreal how all 4 clubs marching onto the knockouts is a very real possibility, absolutely insane year for us!
Way I saw it the contact was extremely light by Pavlidis, Dumfries almost fell by himself. I understand why he gave it, putting your arms out like that is practically asking for it, but plays like this were not called penalties countless of times before.
And to not give the other sour guy an interaction, the last VAR check absolutely was a pen, but he probably wouldn’t make it out the field if he did give it lmao
Shame. Boys played well, and that second pen really shouldn’t have been given IMO after he looked at it on the monitor. Ody deserves to play at the highest level. Ioannidis should’ve squared it to Masouras.
Oh well. There’s still the playoffs to look forward. Dangerous teams over there as well; Kazakhstan, Luxembourg and Georgia are nothing to scoff at and have shown how dangerous they can be in the qualifiers, but I still like our chances. The team has improved lots from the failures of the past few campaigns, and we can only be proud of it. We shall go for it in March 😤
