The coach of the podium: The airy PAOK and the blurred AEK

Tonight’s derby between AEK and PAOK in OAKA, as the Union came from the “divorce” with Argyris Giannikis and Dikefalos of the North from the unexpected loss against Ionikos in Toumba.

The main thing, however, is that there was the surrounding atmosphere and consequently the reality said that Thessaloniki has clearly taken the air of AEK and one was waiting for the reaction of the hosts.

THE podium coach took notes from OAKA and records its conclusions.

PAOK is a better team even with 10: Tsingaras was sent off very early in the match, but even in this short period of time it seemed that PAOK was better and maybe not only in points. The red card was a shock, which the Thessalonians paid for with Garcia’s goal, however the continuation was theirs in terms of tactics and impressions. After he found the goal from Kurti ((who also saved the Italian referee, since there was clear penalty, which strangely did not even indicate it by the VAR), PAOK found its composure and with relative comfort, a fact which should concern AEK, it kept the 1-1 and in cases it could with claims reach even 1-2 with player less. In general, the image proved that PAOK is more… a team than AEK, which is not a big… Revelation.

Now it is also a psychological issue: When two teams have met so many times in so many years and most of the players are known from the outside and mixed up, then psychology also plays a role. It is clear in this part that the players of PAOK see these games with AEK as something different from the other games. Before this match, PAOK’s series reached 10 consecutive matches without defeat by AEK and with… 11 points it proves that psychologically its players Lutsescu and the Romanian himself knows the buttons of their opponents.

Blurred mind, no plan, no patience, protagonists are wanted: One would expect from AEK a reaction or a change in psychology after the developments in the technical leadership. However, the problems that exist have prevailed over all of them. The players of the Union seemed to have no concentration due to the conditions that have been formed, no plan mainly in the second half, as they tried impatiently to break a closed defense, while the protagonists are ignored. Araujo absent, Chuber absent, Livai was lost along the way and only Mandalos did not hide and took efforts.

In how many corners for one phase: Overall, AEK won 12 corners! Too many! However, none of this developed into a substantial phase and much more in the second half, that is, where he had the greatest need. The executions were not good, no substantial movement within the area, so PAOK easily cleared these phases.
