SL1-PO-R2: AEK - PAOK (20-03-22, 19:30 EET)

[Dutch Eagle]

Lucescu yellow for throwing his skoufitsa as a sign of disagreement.

[Dutch Eagle]

Yellow Tsiggaras Just before HT. HT 0-0.

Sastre also not included in the squad, btw. He had fever. Might also be covid.

[Blackhawk]

We are staying in the game letting AEK control the pace. Hopefully 2nd half will be better.

[Blackhawk]

Colak 1:0

[pash]

Antonio about to pop off for the remainder of the season haha

[Dutch Eagle]

Colak great finish and 0-1.

[Athens4]

Tsiggaras very selfish. He should have squared the ball for 0-2.

[Dutch Eagle]

Whatever the result today may bring us, it is nice to see that O Aris and Pana drew 0-0.

We need just 17 points in the remaining 9 matches (including this one). And the others for sure will drop points against eachother.

[Dutch Eagle]

Mitrita subbed out and Biseswar subbed in 

[Athens4]

Biseswar playing volleyball. I really think this should be his last season with us.

[Dutch Eagle]

Taylor replacing Jaba.

[Dutch Eagle]

Yellow Ingason

[Dutch Eagle]

Last sub: Akpom for Colak. Th others two subs can not be used anymore.

[pash]

lmao imagine being afraid of AEK

[Dutch Eagle]

FT 0-1. Great result once again against AEK. Colak MOTM, But congratz to Varela. He did well. And like a pro.

14 points needed to secure ECL.

[Dutch Eagle]

Sorry, miscalculated. We need just 12 points to reach ECL. 

[Blackhawk]

I think Ingason was very good as well. I think 2nd place pretty much secured. Let the rest fight for 3rd place.

[pash]

Agreed. Focus really has to be on the other two competitions.

It looks like the SL2 season goes until May? I really think at some point, the team needs to take a look at players in the B team who play in positions of need (LB, AM, CB). If our last three games this season are meaningless, then it's as good a time as any.

[PAOKSYD]

Amazing result! I did not expect this after our big euro win.

Well done to Luci and his team. 

[paokarag4]

Agree fantastic result especially coming off a big European night. Our record over AEK since that night in 2018 is really something to behold, one loss in around 15ish games? Including the cup of course. 

The team is really starting to have that trademark Lucescu toughness about them, hard to beat. Even when we aren't playing well we are disciplined and hard to break down. Able to find a goal even during tricky games, it's a fantastic trait and necessary for a title challenge.

Next season we are going to be up to our ears in the title race.

Colak was in front of him and the ball, would have been offside

I was going to ask i.e. when was the last time AEK beat us, but you've answered the question.  Man, talk a beat down!
