THE PAOK prevailed 3-2 of AEK in Toumba and with three victories in the remaining matches in its finale championship (and if the Union does not win in Karaiskakis), it can win this year’s title.
Yesterday’s twist, however, it was impressive and it took 20 years for the “Two-Headed North” to achieve something similar against Matias Almeida’s team.
Specifically, in March 2004 the Thessalonikis had also defeated the “yellow and black” 3-2 then, but then they had found themselves behind in the score with 2-0 thanks to the goals of Nikos Lymberopoulos.
Before the first half was over of the match, PAOK managed to draw 2-2 with the goals of Yasemakis Yasoumi. The final score was made by Dimitris Salpingidis and with that “three points”, the team had managed to finish in third place and play in the Champions League qualifiers.
The “Two Head of the North” had won again with 3-2 against AEKwith a similar development to yesterday’s match, after Giorgos Georgiadis had opened the scoring, AEK took the lead with goals from Nikolaidis and Lakis and the hosts with goals from Katsambis and Okka got a great victory in Toumba.
From now on, the Thessaloniki team reached 127 goals in all competitions, equaling their all-time best run since the 2000/01 season. So far PAOK has 79 goals in the league, 14 in the Cup and 34 in Europe, then the team had 66 in the league, 52 in the Cup and 9 in Europe.
Now Lucescu’s team, in the remaining three matcheshas a chance to set a new scoring record.
