Greece played a brave game in Paris against World Cup finalist France and lost 1-0 to a penalty kick before being reduced to 10 men on Monday, for the Euro 2024 qualifiers.

The Greek players stood up to their famous rivals at the Stade de France, but three lapses of concentration by Konstantinos Mavropanos cost the team of coach Gustavo Poyet dearly.

Uruguayan Gustavo Poyet was fired by AEK on Tuesday, one day before the Athens club was due to face Atromitos in a first leg Greek Cup semi-final.

Former Sunderland coach Poyet had told Greek media earlier in the day that he would be leaving at the end of the season.

Press reports said AEK chiefs were unhappy that Poyet had told the media before informing them.
