He gave it his all and Olympiakos stayed with the σο ace

THE Olympic went for a lot and was left empty-handed against Eintracht. The “red and whites”, in historic night of El Arabi, did not take advantage of their opportunities and in the final were punished by the Germans, who prevailed 2-1 in Faliro.

As a result, the 1st place, which gives a direct ticket for the next phase of the Europa League, is now an elusive dream and realistic goal is the 2nd (leads to a barrage), which is now in danger. Many will be judged in the next match with the “hot” Olympiacos-Fenerbahce.

The winning goal was scored by Hauge at 90 + 2 ‘, while the 1-1 was formed by his goal El Arabi in 12 ‘, which sent the Moroccan to the first place of the list of scorers of Piraeus in Europe. The answer, however, was given in the 17th minute with him Command.

Justified voices for arbitration by the “red and whites”, as well as with the match equal, was not expelled at 29 ‘ο Barcock for unsportsmanlike marking on Reabchuk.

In the minds of coaches:

With Vatslik at the end, Olympiakos started steadily, Lala, Papastathopoulos, Ba and Reabciuk were the four in defense, Embila and Mandi Kamara the two midfielders, Masouras, and Agibu Kamara and Oniekourou the trio behind El Arabi.

The Germans lined up with a 3-4-1-2 system. Trapp was in goal, Edika, Hasebe and Tuta in defense, Barcock and Chandler took both sides, while Jakic and Shaw were in the midfield with Kamanda, while Lamers and Bore were in attack.

The match

The game in the first ten minutes was quite recognizable, in which no good phase took place, but only an attempt of the guests to threaten through a static phase. At that point the speed increased sharply. Olympiakos in its first dangerous visit, managed to score a goal, which, in fact, was historic. All the money was his move Oniekourou, who plowed the left side before serving in El Arabi (12 ‘), who executed almost from the small area.

The joy of Piraeus did not last long, as… they stayed in the goal, they did not show concentration in the 17th minute, when Bore made a ball-hole in Kamanda, who found himself face to face with Vatslik and placed him. Nothing changed until the break, although Piraeus found two great opportunities. After, first, was not expelled Barcock for the hard foul on Rehabchuk.

After a counterattack, which was started again by Oniekourou, El Arabi made a vertical for Masura, who was defeated in a four-on-four by Trapp in 36 ‘. This was a huge opportunity. Shortly afterwards, Reabchuk fed Mandy Kamaras, who shot hard through the area, but onto the German goalkeeper. The 1-1 of the break did not fairly capture the image of the first part.

The second part of the Eintracht, trying to catch the Piraeus in their sleep, but they did not succeed and the first big opportunity belonged to Olympiakos. To be precise, huge, with Oniekourou ending the phase awkwardly after a nice vertical of El Arabi, which brought him in a shooting position. The Nigerian, who made his best appearance in the red and whites overall, kicked an opportunity in 67 ‘, when he preferred to fall down instead of finishing the phase through the area.

Eidracht continued to bet on dangerous counterattacks through its quality and probably for this reason did not risk its changes. Pedro Martins, putting Ticinius in place of El Arabi and Lopez in place of Massoura. The Germans “hit” at a very critical point, with Hauge placing Vatslik at 90 + 2 ‘after Ba’s mistake. There was some time for Olympiacos not to be left empty-handed, but in fact it did not manage to claim anything.
