Dominant Greece defeats North Macedonia to secure All Nations Cup quarter-final spot

·

Team Greece has qualified for the quarter-finals of the 2025 All Nations Cup following a convincing 3 nil victory over North Macedonia in the final game of the group stages. 

Greece finished on top of its group and will now face Chile in the quarter finals in two weeks.

Coach George Katsakis was thrilled following the game.

“The boys came to play today and completely dominated from the start. Our team has come together nicely and is peaking at the right stage of the tournament. We now look forward to our next challenge in the quarter-finals and beyond,” Katsakis said.

Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) President Bill Papastergiadis was also full of praise following the win.

“Today was special as we united as one and defeated a difficult opponent, who were on top of the group. We were facing elimination and only a win would see us progress, which the boys achieved comfortably in difficult wet conditions,” Papastergiadis said.

“I would like to congratulate both George Katsakis and Kon Tangalakis, our amazing coaches, who have once again managed to reach the quarter-finals and hopefully repeat our feats of three years ago when we won the cup in our first attempt. I wish them all the best in the finals.”

Fixtures and kick-off times for the finals will be presented early next week.
