Olympiakos pressed, but brought Volos to its knees starring Valbouena, prevailing 1-0 at Panthessalikos and “locked” the first place in view of the playoffs. In a game with a similar scenario to the game of the two teams in “G. Karaiskakis “.
* Valbouena punished Volos again in the end: Second victory over Volos, almost carbon for Olympiakos. Piraeus found them dark, as in the first round, but they broke the heavy bond with the 37-year-old ace. In “G. Karaiskakis “brought the opponent to his knees with an excellent foul in the 90 ‘, now he executed him with a nice place a little earlier (81’). Taking the… cart out of the mud, at a point where the Piraeus were putting a lot of pressure, they had filled the opponent’s area playing with two forks, but also at which time had begun to work against them. Maybe now Valbouena need special management, but in such circumstances it is still a blessing for Pedro Martins. Reminds at every opportunity his classdid the same at Panthessaliko.
* He locked first and overcame the whining before the “final” on Thursday and took a breath: The victory over Volos kept Olympiakos at a safe distance from PAOK, while Piraeus took the lead in view of the playoffs. In addition, they go with good psychology in Thursday’s rematch with Atalanta for the qualifying phase of the “16” of the Europa League. Any loss, of course, would not be catastrophic, but it would send Martins’s team into a “battle” with a different mood. The Portuguese coach also had the opportunity to rest some of his basic tools. He was left out of the mission Manolas and Papastathopoulos was on the bench, played as a change o Emvilawhile o did not play throughout the game Bouchalakis and entered the 77th minute Τικίνιο, which is key at the moment. These are players who are expected to play more or less against the Italians and today they were not burdened for 90 minutes. Even the Agibuwho was substituted in the 77th minute for Olympiacos to play with two forwards, was not used throughout the game.
* They did not see the overthrow: There were “voices” for the arbitration from both sides. Virtually only one phase can be talked about. That of the 31st minute. When the Cisse loses the ball just outside the area and in his attempt to “erase” the mistake, goes awkwardly on the ball and overturns Nini. In the regular screening there was doubt, but it was needed replay to clarify the situation. Manouchos did not see it in normal flow, but Stoyanov did not call him for on field review. Ba’s hand did not exist later, while there were some voices to overthrow Oniekouros, but such a thing did not appear from the replay.
* Bad night, Van Weert: Bad day at work for the 31-year-old striker. Volos was worse overall, but it had a few, but some very good moments to do damage to Olympiakos. Protagonist in most it was the killer of the team, who did not play well this time. The Dutch striker is the top player of his team this season, having 13 goals in 23 games before tonight. However, towards the “red and whites” he was below expectations. Kicks a good chance at 21 ‘, making a “chaff” in front of the game. In the 87 ‘, shortly after 0-1, he makes a bad header from a great position, missing another opportunity from which he usually ends with a goal.
