Got a bit over half an hour off the bench and collected his first yellow card for the season in a 2-0 win

Olympiakos host Athens Kallithea

On from the 48th minute this morning in a 2-1 win over Athens Kallithea. 

Stamenic was immense for Olympiacos when he came on. Got on the ball playing some of his trademark diagonals and nice short passes. Broke up play on some occasions albeit committing his usual few fouls and picking up another yellow card on the way. 

Had the initial shot that troubled the opposing keeper which parried to an onrushing attacker that led to the go ahead goal for Olympiacos. 

Should be starting from here on out because he definitely looks like there most assured midfielder alongside Dani Garcia from what I’ve seen so far. 

Next up the Europa League draw on Friday. 

Expecting to see some big names pulled for Stamenic with the new format this year. United, Spurs, Roma, Porto etc. 

Some nice fixtures for Marko and Olympiacos indeed.

Rangers, Lyon & Porto being the pick of the bunch there.

Phenomenal experience

Would expect Marko to get good minutes based on his Euro Cup performances already.  

Olympiakos travel to Lamia

His first Greek Super League start and 85 mins (3-0) in a 3-0 win.
Looks like he's building nicely into his new club, and will get plenty of mins in their Europa League campaign.

 Braga away would've been cooler, one of the most bizarre stadiums in Europe

Niche Cache, after the Olympiakos win on the weekend

Marko Stamenic: “I think we can be happy with ourselves. It took a while to break them down but we were patient, we were hungry, we showed passion, and I think that showed in the result... We have huge ambitions to celebrate the 100 years, not only for us but for the fans and the community in Athens. We have big ambitions and we want to win everything that’s available. Good start to the season, we need to continue.”
