More fundraising soccer today, Saturday
Olympiakos will host a fundraiser against Red Star Belgrade today in support of victims of the country’s tragic wildfires that led to the loss of nearly 70 lives. Panathinaikos, Iraklis and Panionios will also stage a one-day charity event on Saturday at Panathinaikos’s Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium. Last weekend, AEK, PAOK and Larissa led the fundraising cause with a three-way tournament of their own. The Greek Super League, just one round into the new season, is currently on hold because of the national team’s Euro 2008 qualifying game tonight in Norway and the national elections this Sunday.
