Nektarios Triantis Debuts for Greece National Team

Nektarios Triantis made his debut for the Greece National Team.

The young defensive midfielder came on as a substitute in the 64th minute of the match against Belarus, replacing Manolis Siopis. The 23-year-old Minnesota United player, who has also played for Sunderland and Hibernian, had 46 appearances, five goals, and eight assists last season.
