Rivaldo scored tonight for AEK.

In Greece Larissa is a place and is called Lάrissa and not Larίssa as you might think..

Well I think that Gamst Pedersen of Blackburn said before the game that his team is able to win the UEFA cup!!
Also Blackburn was in an 15 games-in-row ubeatten..

God, I really need to look closely as I read that as Robins PLAYS for Panionios.

Some good teams beaten there. Quite shocking really. Why has Greek club football become quite decent all of a sudden. </BLOCKQUOTE>

As you might know the only Greek team that is known widely in Europe the latest 35 years is Panathinaikos with a European Cup final in 1971 against Ajax and with great results against the top teams of Europe like Juventus(3-1) with Zidane, Del Piero, Davids etc., Arsenal(1-0) with Henry, Bergkamp etc, Barcelona(1-0) etc etc.
So if you check the UEFA site you will be able to see that Panathinaikos has the most points in Europe than any other greek team all those years that's why we have so many teams in European competitions.. :cool:

Lately, Greek teams have insvested in good and youth players and also brought great managers from abroad..
Finally, to tell you the truth I didn't expect that all the Greek teams will win today, but as I saw all the games they could have won with higher scores even if this seems a bit weird for you out there..

Marcelo Mattos(Ex-Corinthians player) made the assist to N'Doye for the 2nd goal of Panathinaikos!!

How is he doing in Greece?

He outshone Mascherano in the Brazilian League and in general he is a pretty underrated player IMO.

Look, because I am watching Panathinaikos very closley Mattos was one of the players that impressed me with the first view..In Greece we have played only 1 official game and this with Artmentia was the 2nd..Mattos seems a player that he absolutley knows what he has to do in the field..When he came here they said he is a good DM with good passing and marking..I saw him in those 2 games but in friendlies also and he was great in his role as DM..I got amazed today as I saw his attacking abilities!!He got forward made some great passes up front and got in to the opossing area and made a great pass no matter if our attacker missed..The goal assist was great after a free kick straight to the header of the attacker that scored..
As I mentioned before, this was his 2nd official game with Panathinaikos but he showed that he is a great player with lot of potential and seems he will be able to help the team to reach their targets..

Thanks!

This is the Marcelo Mattos I know. :cool:

Had to laugh at the idiot of a commentator on Setanta, 'Blackburn are the better team here'

Aye that's why they lost two nil.
