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.

It’s also next to the famous open-air theatre, “Theatro Vrachon”, where concerts and plays take place in the summer and the Hymettus Municipal Stadium, where many locals go to exercise.
