THE victory of Panathinaikos in Toumba (1-2) not only is it a decisive step towards winning the title, but at the same time he repeated a performance he had last achieved eight years ago.
The “greens” beat PAOK away from home for the second time in the same season, something they had to achieve since 2014/15. Then, on November 9, 2014, they won 2-1 in the regular season with goals from Ajagoun (51′) and Karelis (79′), while on May 27, 2015, they beat Toumba 1-0 for the playoffs with Tavlaridis as the scorer. in the 43′. Panathinaikos’ previous pair of winning streaks at the home of PAOK is the… last century: On October 20, 1985, he won 1-0, while on March 15, 1987, he won 3-2.
It is worth noting that with yesterday’s victory, Panathinaikos did the absolute victory in Thessaloniki for the first time since the 2003/04 season, when he was crowned champion. The “greens” this year defeated PAOK twice with 2-1 and Aris 1-0 and 2-1, while 19 seasons ago the “clover” had beaten PAOK away 2-1, Aris 2-0 and 2-0 to Herakles. In fact, at that time the victory in Toumba, on April 25, 2004, with 2-1 thanks to Emmanuel Olissadebe’s goal in the third minute of stoppage time, was… half a championship for the “clover”.
