A true thriller (although the term black comedy would be more appropriate) has made the conduction of the Greek Cup final between AEK and his Olympic.
After first postponement at the end of July (When the EPO chose the Rizoupoli stadium and the objections of the Police and the Attica Region arose), last night it was known that the match was taken to a second postponement, as a positive sample emerged in the coronavirus tests carried out by the players from Olympiacos.
Specifically, the Argentine Maxi Lovera was positive (the third Olympiacos player since the preparation as Semedo began, he had been preceded by Tzolakis) so the match that was scheduled for Sunday will not be played (OAKA, 9:00 p.m.) .
In addition, in the next two days, all members of the Olympiacos football team (players, coaches, squad) and in general all those who came into contact with Lover will undergo two consecutive tests and if they test negative they will be able to return to training ( here It is of interest to foreign Greeks and internationals who will have to integrate into their national teams), while the Rentis training center will be disinfected.
As it is understood, the ball falls back to the EPO, which is called upon to solve the puzzle of both the date of the event and the stadium that will host a final, that a celebration has become a farce due to the inability of the Federation to organize a party without the presence of people.
The first leak from the Federation regarding the new date simply expressed its desire to have the match before the start of Super League 1, however for this to happen the League must agree to transfer its crossbar for a week. new season.
Since the national team has matches on September 3 and 6 (with Slovenia and Kosovo out) for the UEFA Nations League, the final can be set on 12/9 when the new championship will theoretically begin and this will be decided tomorrow when the Federation’s Extraordinary Affairs Committee meets (while on Monday the Super League meets in turn for the announcement, the draw and the dates of the new league).
And if the date is an issue, the second is the stadium, since OAKA will be closed from Monday to improve the playing field, which is in poor condition. So if a relatively close date is chosen, then it is very likely that the final will be set at the Rizoupoli stadium !!!
With questions regarding when and where this year’s final will finally take place, at least since yesterday we know that the obligation for teams to compete against last year’s rosters has ceased to exist! Last season formally ended tomorrow, Monday 8/31, so when they are finally at Olympiakos and AEK, Pedro Martins and Massimo Carrera will be able to use the players they acquired (or will acquire) in the current transfer window.
