An injury to captain Theodoros Zagorakis has created a starting chance for Bundesliga striker Ioannis Amanatidis. The 1. FC Kaiserslautern player, who performed well during the Bundesliga season, will likely replace the Greek midfielder, when German coach Otto Rehhagel's Greeks take on Japan in their Confederations Cup match-up on Sunday. Amanatidis, who played ann unespectacular final few minutes in Greece's 0-3 loss to Brazil has been hoping for a shot at cracking the starting eleven.
