The match

Two minutes later, the hosts cashed out their superiority, with a rather lucky and unorthodox way. Specifically, the central defender of Arkady, Carmona, she did the “chaff” in the “heart” of the small area, sending the ball into his team’s net after a dangerous turn by Myga from the left.

The goal looks like “wake up” the lazy in the first minutes, Asteras, with Akis Manziou’s team immediately raising their lines. In the 13th minute, the visitors’ first goal was recorded with Alagbe’s missed shot, who, however, they were struggling to come out with claims in front of the frames of Houtesiotis.

At 22′, o Sheba he almost made it 2-0 when, after a fine dribble, he cut into the area, with Tassoulis clearing before the Brazilian could finish. Seven minutes later, Mr Mantzis caught one drag shot outside the area, forcing Tsiftsis into a difficult intervention in his left corner. This was also the last notable phase of the first half, with Ionikos managing the match properly.

The scene is similar in second half, with the Nicaeans completely controlling the pace of the match, imposing their own tempo and bringing the game to their “want”. After a lazy first quarter in the replay, the first phase belonged to the home team with its own goal Manji from the large area to find Karmonas in the 55′. Two minutes later, the 31-year-old forward threatened again with weak headwithout worrying Tsiftsis.

In the 64th minute, Asteras Tripoli he shouts for a penalty on Barrels from Myga’s marking, with the Ionikos defender falling clumsily on the back of the visitors’ striker. Yes, the referee gave offensive foul in that particular phase, with the VAR not calling the referee to check the phase.

The many changes made by the two teams, as well as the rather hard markings, did not allow the game to gain a good pace. In the 76th minute, Ionikos “wasted” good chance with the cross going through everyone, while two minutes later, Barales responded with a header.

In the final minutes, the visitors pressed for an equaliser, “touching” the equalizer in the 90th minute, when Iglesias’ header from an advantageous position went just over the home team’s goal. In the end, there was enough tension between the players and the benches for some whistling, resulting in one of Astera’s caretakers being sent off.

MVP: The award for the best player of the match can go to Mandzis, who helped the development of Ionikos a lot, while he was in several phases, being a constant source of danger for the home of Tsiftsis.

The… whistle: The refereeing of Andreas Gamaris was very bad, as he completely missed the 64′ phase and the marking of Myga on Barales inside the area, charging with an aggressive foul from the visitors’ forwards. At the same time, he allowed rough play without punishing it with cards.
