LIVERPOOL SHOCK EURO NEWS
Liverpool could be set to replace Olympicos in the Champions League after Greek football was suspended from international competition. Fifa has suspended European champions Greece and its member clubs from international competition because of government interference in the sport. World governing body Fifa said the Hellenic Football Federation had broken rules on "the independence of members and decision-making in each country". It means Greek clubs and officials are banned from European competitions. The suspension will be in place with "immediate effect and until further notice", according to a Fifa statement. Although Greek officials are believed to be working furiously behind the scenes, Liverpool currently sit as the second top ranking team in the 3rd qualifying stage, behind Inter Milan. If the FIFA ban remains in place, and Italian teams are punished as expected by the match-fixing scandal, then Liverpool will be set to be upgraded to automatic group stage qualification.
