Every year… the same for Panetolico and Astera Tripoli! The two teams stayed at 0-0 for matchday 21 of the Stoiximan Super League, in their seventh consecutive draw when they face Agrinio. In fact, this is the third consecutive “white” tie between the two teams regardless of home!
The Arcades are more classic stages, but one very large one for each team. First with him Chestnut not finding a finish from the small area on behalf of Asteras and then with his finish João Pedro to have the same ending from the same point in the opposing area for Panaitolikos.
The two teams were “spoiled” with the draw, since Panaitolikos is now 24 and the Star at 22both missing the chance to get close to the top six (Agriniotes at -5, Arkades at -7).
In the coach’s mind
With 4-3-3 take him down Panetolico The Yannis Anastasiou. Kontogiannis in goal and Malis, Larson, Mladen, Houhoumis in defense. Liavas, Kolovos, Duarte in the axis, with Morsey, Sengelia on the wings and Joao Pedro at the top of the attack.
Same arrangement for him Astera Tripoli by Aki Manzio. Papadopoulos in goal, with Carmona, Picsou, Kastanio, Alvares in the defensive four. Alagbe, Santafe in midfield, with Bartolo given a little freedom of movement to help create, with Crespi, Sito on the flanks and Barales in a forward role.
The match
The first half went by at a very good pace, with Star to have come in strong and looking for spaces to threaten, but without creating the big phase in the first quarter. Somehow, Mr A pan-eater he took steps on the field and was trying to create phases towards the goal of the Arkads.
THE João Pedro in the 23rd minute he went to make the shot from inside the area, but o Chestnut he made a life-saving display and saved his team in the only notable phase of the first half for the home side. The minutes went by, the pace was good but the mistakes in the last third of the field were many, with Asteras in the 44th minute having a very good chance to open the scoring.
After a nice combination of Barrels by Bartolo and breaking the latter, o Crespi made the shot from inside the area, with Kontogiannis to expel. Let’s say that the young keeper made his debut in the first division.
In the first minute of stoppage time, Panaitolikos answered the phases, with the João Pedro to do the filming from close up, o Sengelia made the shot on the move from the small area but o Carmona put the “stop” on it. Nothing changed until the final whistle and the two teams went to the locker room tied (0-0).
The second part of the game went by the same pace, with his team Akis Manziou to have a great chance to open the scoring in the 55th minute. After the execution of the corner and the counterattacks, the ball reached the unmarked Chestnut who from the small area did not find a home with the turn he attempted.
Afterwards, changes were made and the pace was low, with both teams trying to find spaces, while there was no shortage of nerves. In the 72nd Alvares he made the shot, but his shot Crespi blocked by Kontogiannis.
Two minutes later it was Panaitolikos’ turn to threaten, when after a mistake by the Asteras defense, the ball was placed in the João Pedro inside the box but his shot went high and wide in the home side’s biggest phase of the match!
Until the last whistle of the game, nothing changed, with the two teams taking the point of the tie (0-0), a result which is particularly… dear in the matches between them.
This is how you watched the match live from sportfm.gr
MVP: We can put him Kontogiannis. The young keeper neutralized all Astera’s phases and in his debut made a very good appearance. Due to his debut, he beats him on points Nikos Papadopouloswho for another match made a good appearance and was stable under the posts.
The whistle: THE Basil of Fire he generally let the game play out in the first half, however in the second half he drew several cards and it made sense as there were quite a few nerves on both sides. Overall he did a good refereeing.
