THE Biceps of the North presented with many changes, with Razvan Lucescu to give a chance to several footballers with little playing time, at the same time resting players who had been burdened recently. Tisundali scored a hat-trickwhile the 19-year-old central defender made his debut, Dimitris Kottas.
Victory in Toumba after about 100 days for PAOKwho had to win matches at home from August 25 and 2-0 against Panaitolikos for the Stoiximan Super League.
In the minds of the coaches:
THE Razvan Lucescu it started with Pavlenka under the posts, with Sastre, Lovren, Michaelidis and Gomez making up the back four. Thymianis was on the axis together with the rested Kamaras who was suspended in the match against Athens Kallithea, while Zivkovic was on the right, Soretire on the left and Tisundali and Samata in the attack duo.
For his team Egaleo Tsimopoulos started under the goalposts, while the trio of defense was composed by Gioulis, Bardas and Karriki. Kostopoulos in the right back-half position, while Liofagos was on the left. The duo of midfielders consisted of Babis and Karvounis, while a little ahead of them in a free role was Varkas. The duo of forwards was formed by Fofana and Dritsas.
The match:
THE PAOK he entered the match hungry and only opened the scoring in the 6th minute. THE Tailor entered the area from the right, made the parallel turn and o Soretire in an empty net he gave his team the lead.
THE PAOK continued at the same pace and in the 12th minute o Tisundali doubled his team’s tally with a header following a corner kick Zivokvic.
After the 2-0 Egaleo decided to be more pushy and put intensity on the markings. Something that helped them to steal more balls and make it difficult for PAOK to move and eventually reach the reduction of the score.
His team Charalambidi he stole the ball and ran into Kotsopoulos from the right. He did the filming and o Dritsas made it 2-1.
A goal that was celebrated wildly by all of Aegaleo. Both from the players and the team’s bench, as well as from the approximately 50 Aegaleo fans who were in Toumba.
After the score was reduced, the pace of the match dropped and the phases decreased. However, every time PAOK decided to… push the button, they created a phase whenever they wanted.
In the 36th minute, Zivkovic made it 3-1, after a nice team effort. Soretire back-heeled beautifully for the oncoming Tisundali, he turned and the Serbian winger easily made it 3-1 at half-time.
Shortly before the two teams were led to the locker room, o Samata missed a huge chance to score, but his shot found Tsimopoulos’ right crossbar.
In the second half, PAOK entered as the first ended, with their foot on the gas and with two very quick goals Tisundali raised the score marker to 5-1.
The Moroccan, with the help of luck, made it 4-1 in the 47th minute, while in an incredible phase and after several counterattacks in the 51st minute, the ball hit him and ended up in the Aegaleo net.
The Bigfoot of the North then dropped the pace, until they decided to pick it up again in the 75′. This time after his excellent creation MurgTyson made it 6-1, while again from a terrific vertical shot by the Austrian, the Brandon Thomas made the final 7-1!
