His Beatitude received a representation from the football team of P.A.O.K. and spoke to them about the role and name of the Patriarchate as “Roman Orthodox Patriarchate” and appealed to them to continue the championship and to remain in the roots, principles and values of Romiosyni.
The representatives of P.A.O.K. offered to His Beatitude a double-headed eagle, a symbol of their group, and holy myrrh from the pilgrimage of Saint Demetrius in Thessaloniki.
His Beatitude offered them a silver painting of the city of Jerusalem and wished them good success in their team’s football match this evening after the Israeli Beitar football team.
