IO OF PIRAEUS


Weekend 27-28 of September the first Greek International Open of the season was played in Pireus.
Athens kickers dominated in two of the four categories veterans and under 15.
In the veterans (12 players played) Aggelos Tsakiris won the event as he beat in the final 3-1 another Kicker’s player Marcos Kapsabelis. Giorgos Aggelinas reached the semis (lost against Aggelos 0-2).
In the under 15 category (16 participants), our latest transfer singing Giannis Vlassopoulos was simply unstoppable. With a numerous winning streak he once again lift the trophy. Other kickers players Manos Kapsabelis and Dimitris Maroulas also played but they stuck in the groups.
In the open category (61 players) the best result for a Kicker player was achieved by Giorgos Aggelinas as he reached the last 8. Marcos Kapsabelis and Giannis Karvounis were second best as they stopped in the last 16. Aggelos Tsakiris, Argyris Poulidis and Diamantis Labi reached the last 32. Fotis Labi also played in the tournament.

In the team event Kickers won their group against Atlas and Lions “C” team. Then we qualified to the last eight and we had to play against Olympia SC. A comfortable win sealed for Kickers a place in the semi finals of the international open. In the semis we had to face Roligans but our boys (Aggelos Tsakiris, Fotis Labi, Giannis Karvounis and Giorgos Aggelinas) didn’t make it.

Go Kickers go
