Olympiakos raised the tone of the controversy, expressing his opposition to the decision of the Organizing Committee of the EPO, since he would be left without a game to play the rematch with the Wolves, while “cutting” in the middle and the preparation of the new season . Of course, the fact that the game was played with last year and not with this year’s rosters, that is, without the possibility of using transfers, at the time the players have left, did not pass without great reactions either.
With that and that, we reached the night of Saturday, August 29, where the results of the coronavirus test came out and Maxi Lovera tests positive for Covid-19. He is the third rojiblanco player who has fallen ill after Tzolakis and Semedo, an opera that means that health protocols must be observed, as happened in Xanthi – Apollon where there was a case of Akrites before the first draw and the final was postponed. Olympiacos players are entering a 48-hour quarantine and further testing will follow.
Following the appearance of a Covid-19 case in a PAE Olympiakos football player, the Extraordinary Committee of the Hellenic Football Federation decided to postpone today’s final match of the 2019-20 Greek Cup season between PAE AEK and Olympiakos . The new date of the final will be designated by a new decision of the Executive Committee of the EPO “states the announcement of the Federation.
NARROW MARGINS WITH DATES
Now, the ball goes to the EPO, which is called upon to make immediate decisions about what will be born from now on. The report that was transferred to Sport24.gr, is that the final is headed for September 12, the date that was normally to start the 2020-21 season championship. The Federation, of course, is a higher authority, so if it decides to reach the final, the league crossover will necessarily go back a week.
Do not forget that tomorrow (8/31) the League meets, therefore, the Federation will have to make decisions in consultation with the organizing authority of the league to be decided by the Board. from the cooperative the … extension of the start for one week. The final cannot be reached earlier, because our national team has matches with Slovenia and Kosovo on September 3 and 6, so the time frames are very tight.
As for the rosters, given that the previous season will have been formally completed and the final will have become the current one, the two finalists will be able to play with this year’s rosters, so Pedro Martins and Massimo Carrera will also be able to use their transfers . , loosening hands a lot, since they will have more solutions in the quiver.
THE “HOT POTATO” OF THE COURT AND THE REFEREE
After all, the main problem is the stadium that will become the final. OAKA is expected to close due to maintenance work, because the field is in very bad condition, something that did not go unnoticed either, with those responsible for the stadium also taking a position and blaming AEK and Panathinaikos, with Rizoupoli to return to the vanguard again. Apollon’s second draw with Xanthi (3-1) took place yesterday (8/29) and the pitch is in good condition.
Finally, Félix Brich, who had decided to lead the final and is the referee of the “top shelf”, will probably not be available on the new date, as will his assistants, so Mark Clattenberg and his associates will have to look for new “whistles “, equal to the German referee. If the bar is raised high with your case, someone of the same level should be found.
