Greece did not want to play against England after George Baldock’s death
Dimitrios Pelkas says there was no room to rearrange tie‘When these things happen in life, football is second part’
The midfielder Dimitrios Pelkas has said Greece did not want to play their Nations League game against England after the death of George Baldock but forced themselves to win in his honour.
Baldock, a former Sheffield United defender, died at the age of 31 after drowning in his swimming pool in Athens. He won 12 caps for Greece, after being eligible to represent them through a grandmother, and was last involved in their squad for the Euro 2024 play-off defeat by Georgia.
