The match

After being read, he was introduced to the game PAOKshowing a clear willingness to control the pace and limit to a minimum the spaces he will give to Mars since he knew that the home team as a team is faster. His team Lucescu threatened him Naray in the 3rd minute, with the “yellows” looking for the opposition but not having a clear mind in the last third of the field. Although the start of the match showed promise and the pace was good, there were several stoppages and marking afterwards, with the game breaking down.

THE Augusto threatened with a curling header that went wide in the 27th minute, with the cooling break then giving the hosts a chance to “clear” their minds and return to the pitch better. In fact, they made two good phases in the space of a minute, with him Kotarsky to initially take his long shot Mancini and then its finish Ducouret through the area he found on Ingason and it went past the right post, with 0-0 remaining until the break.

THE Terzis saw that o Diop he had not coped with the match and dropped him in his place Dumbomaking quite its axis Mars. The game got a good rhythm again, o Manu he threatened a heel in one of his few good moments on the grass and then it was… disaster. First, in the 49th minute Thomas saw him Quest to make a big intervention in his projection from contact and to keep the zero, while two minutes later the Mars won a penalty after a sloppy tackle on him Koulierakis to Stick in. THE Grey undertook the execution, but the Kotarsky “fished” him, fell to his left corner and blocked.

In the… caps, the Croatian keeper also overpowered his faltered shot Mancini from the boundaries of the area. The 0-0 had remained in the match due to the two goalkeepers, with the coaches entering the equation and trying with their movements from the bench to change the… destiny of their teams.

O Lucescu bet on throwing experience Vieirania, Bisesvar, Oliveira, Canturiby Tuesday to strengthen his team in midfield and add speed with Palma, Gervinho and Camacho. Despite this, the match did not open and even looked like it was going to end… off. Indeed, the result did not change, but out of nowhere, a huge tension arose in the finale, after there were intense cockfights at first, then skirmishes and… duu of the two benches on the grass. THE Dumbo was sent off with a second yellow, o El Kaduri also but with a direct red card and the match ended at… 100′ with 0-0.

MVP: THE Kotarsky made a big appearance, keeping a clean sheet. In fact, from the moment he takes Gray’s penalty, he rightfully takes the title of his top match against Aris.

The whistle: THE Luis Godinho he had to face a match with great intensity, but in the final it seems that he made the right decision in most of his moments. He delays the start of the match by almost a quarter of an hour, wanting (correctly) to let the atmosphere clear completely of the fumes, and correctly gives the penalty in his favor Mars. In the finale, he correctly dismisses Dabo with a second yellow, while being checked for that of El Kadouri as it was direct. Overall it gets a very high score!
