Panathinaikos’ Konstantinos Katsouranis (pictured right) will be in a position to topple Brazilian Teammate Gilberto Silva as the #1 in the FTBL ranking of midfielders in the Greek top league when the Greeks take on Ukraine in World Cup 2010 playoffs in the coming days.
In the two playoff games, Katsouranis, who has an overall FTBL score of 76.22 points at the moment, will face planks of 4 and 14 rating points, respectively. That means he should be in a position to at least catch up with Gilberto Silva (84.4 points) after the first game.
In addition, the # 3 in the ranking, Giorgios Karagounis (57.67 points), also of Panathinaikos, will likewise be in a position to close the gap with Katsouranis: he will go into the matches with lower planks of 1.8 and 7.9 points to beat.
