If the team was fighting a virus, it would explain basically the whole performance. You try jogging for a half hour when you're trying not to throw up!

Fiorentina through to the final. For me, this puts the loss to Brugge into even more perspective. Seems like we really did underperform during those two games.

He was great for the Greek league but simply not fast enough for our European games. We need someone who is much quicker than him.

Return leg. Olympiakos in the driver's seat after a 4-2 away win, but we should know better than to think it's over.

I believe the winner of this game will take the title. A draw will basically hand the title to the paper team.

We should engineer a pitch invasion just to keep things interesting. A three point deduction with two games to go, suddenly it's tense again!

3-1 loss for the boys.

Interesting. I would think Meite would be a good candidate to sign, even for four million? I wonder if this impasse is due to the older reports of us trying to get him for a little less (like 3 million or whatever). Would not shock me if we ended up with a Kedziora situation, where we just try to take him on loan again. https://inpaok.com/820436/o-meite-epistrefei-stin-benfika/ Also makes me wonder if the team just simply has a better alternative in mind (Misic?! who needs a defensive midfielder anyway...)

Obviously I want us to win, however if we can't beat them then I would like an away win over a draw. That way at least A4 will be taken all the way for their fake championship.

It's an Easter miracle!

This is the game that was postponed and it is a big one. We win and we keep the dream of championship alive. Only three days earlier Olympiakos plays the 2nd semifinal game of Conference League, so that could play in our favor. However, to have any success we will need to perform much better than we did in the last two game against them (1:2 and 1:4 losses). As it is we have not beaten them at Toumba in the last five meetings. We are due for a win.

Panserraikos has announced the early termination of Amr Warda's contract today. His contract was good until June 30, 2024 but was terminated early without any explanations.

Refs were trying hard to give the match away to Aston Villa with that bogus penalty call. Karma came back for them. The job isn't done yet, Martinez will be back, but so will Masouras and Noti.

Fixed. Hopefully Athens after that, though!

Game over - OLY going back to Athens with a 4-2 advantage

Aston Villa 2-4 Olympiakos FT

+5

Aston Villa: Zaniolo IN Bailey OUT

Aston Villa: Iroegbunam IN Diaby OUT

McGinn, save Tzolakis and no rebound!

Yellow against Diaby

Luiz to take OFF THE POST AND WIDE!

Penalty for Villa, not sure what exactly for, but there are about three things it could be.

Aston Villa substitution: Duran IN Rogers OUT
