Apollon Limassol is on track for the playoffs with Valbuena as leader

The… he took it upon himself Mathieu Valbuena! The experienced French midfielder led his side to an emphatic away win with 3-0 on her Doxa Katokopiaby Apollo Limassol to rise to 32 points and now to be -4 from the top six leading to the playoffs.

The game started perfectly for Apollon after Malekkidis opened the scoring in the 17th minute, with Valbuena in the 1st minute of stoppage time to score with an improbable placement to… tip the scales in favor of his team. Bakenga shaped the final result in the 48th minute, with Apollon Limassol comfortably returning to three points.
