Fearless said goodbye in the best way to 2023. Its impact Sasha Ilyich it is obvious and has not been limited to a… short period of time (where usually the arrival of a new technician in a team also brings a psychological upliftment in its ranks). After all, with the Serbian coach on their bench, the Peristerians are running nine game unbeaten streak in league and Cup (4W-5I). The “blue and white” therefore said “goodbye” to the previous year by winning (3-2) over Panathinaikou and “X” (0-0) with Olympic.
