The men's national soccer team ended the season with a 2-0 friendly win over Malta on Tuesday after a rather mediocre performance in Austria.

Caretaking coach Nikos Papadopoulos made several changes in an effort to hand some playing time to all players in his squad ahead of September's first Nations League game.

Greece surrendered its first-half lead in Germany to suffer a 2-1 friendly loss at Moenchengladbach on Friday, exposing the frailty of the hosts and offering plenty of promise ahead of this fall's Nations League.

AEK announced on Tuesday it has replaced manager Temuri Ketsbaia with Portuguese coach Jose Morais.

One day after rising to joint second on the table beating Larissa 2-1 away - both goals coming from Vangelis Platellas - AEK announced it was parting ways with its Georgian manager, who paid the price for the poor performance at the 3-0 loss to Olympiakos over two weeks earlier.

A pressure cooker environment is escalating as the Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA) is pushing for more measures demanded by Greece’s creditors (EC, ECB, ESM, IMF) while farmers are battling to protect their rights.

Blogger Nikos Papadopoulos has taken a German toy and created a dark, witty commentary on life in Greece, but not everyone is happy with the genius result, especially not the German Playmobil toymaker itself that sought to remove his images from the internet.
