2nd Group game between Salamina and Alki. Unfortunately 2nd group games down provide any motivation to the teams at all. This showed in the game a lot today as in the entire first half the two teams only had one chance on goal each and believe me it wasn’t because of good defending. Salamina came close 5 minutes in the game and then it took Alki half an hour to Read More ...
