Michalis Kritikopoulos Stadium

Attendance 100

Entry Free

Kick-Off 19:00

I’d been to this stadium twice before, but both visits were before I started this blog, so I thought this was a good enough excuse to pay this beautiful ground another visit. The first time was to see Kifissia (who at the time were using the stadium for their home games) take on Panserraikos, in a 4-4 thriller that remains one of the most dramatic Super League matches I’ve seen live. Later that season, I...

Kick-Off 18:00

It’s been so long since I last wrote one of these that I’ve almost forgotten how to do it. Summers in Greece can be cruel, and it’s not so much the unbearable heatwaves but rather the lack of football action. So when Holargos’ pre-season friendlies were announced, they quickly became the main thing on my mind (perhaps alongside the Greek clubs’ European qualifiers). Most groundhoppers tend to be a bit snobbish about friendly games —...

Renti Stadium

Attendance 60

Entry €2

Kick-Off 17:30

It had been some time since I last dropped back into the Piraeus League. By now, it’s one of the few things in terms of football action still ongoing – the play-outs, to be more specific. When the regular season ends, the bottom four teams continue playing against each other, home and away, and ultimately the last one goes down. Today was the final matchday of the season for Group B of the second division,...

Kick-Off 17:00

After last week’s successful outing , I recruited three friends and headed once again to the far northern suburbs of Athens for another game in the EPSANA league — this time by car, thankfully. We were going to see a match from the third (and lowest) division. It’s the only division still ongoing, and today was the final matchday of the season. We chose to visit Panvoreiakos, who sit second in the table, tied on...

Entry €5

Kick-Off 17:00

Unfortunately, the time of the year when football leagues end is somewhat here. That, paired with not driving, can make options even more limited when it comes to groundhopping. There were still a few games to choose from today, as the B and C levels of some regional leagues are still on — though not for long. Usually, it’s the Athens league that I look at first, but today nothing felt either particularly exciting or...
