Block for APOEL! His team Vladan Milojevic preceded in “Neo GSP”, but… stepped on it just before the finale and it was tied 1-1 with Omonia.
Somehow, it lost the opportunity to maintain a safe distance from its pursuers and may have a roommate at the top after the end of the first matchday of the playoffs, if AEK Larnaca beats Apollon Limassol.
The match was… a classic derby. Many strong duels, tension and voices on both sides, with APOEL striking at the end of the first part. THE Crespo pierced the opposition defense as a forward and scored from close range for 1-0, with his former player PAOK to find the back of the net for the second time this year. The visitors came under pressure in the second half, but held on. However, they saw him Panagiotou to equalize at 1-1 in the 86th minute and the score to remain as it is until the final.
In the game held earlier, the Rectification prevailed 3-1 over Doxa Katokopia and left her in the relegation zone.
