EL-LP-MD1: Galatasaray - PAOK(25.09.24, 22:00 EEST)

[Blackhawk]

That was a big chance by Konstantelias. He needed to score there.

We had our moments in first half, but Galatasaray was pressuring us. Mainly at the end of first half. I am sure we will see the same scenario in second half. I think we can escape at least with a tie from Konstantinople.

[PAOKSYD]

Good half for us. 

Delias missing a one on one in 45th minute hurts, but other than that we were tactically perfect. 

Best performers of first half was our 5 at the back all super

[pash]

I really feared this would be much more of a blowout. A draw is very possible. Hope for better than that, though!

[Blackhawk]

I was really impressed with Colley. He was perfect so far.

[Dutch Eagle]

Yellow Ozdoyev is shown at the start of the second half. Probably for that foul where the ref indicated advantage for Gala.

[Dutch Eagle]

Damn.  Own goal Baba

[Blackhawk]

Cheap goal

[PAOKARA]

That was really tragic 

[Blackhawk]

Kotarski keeping us in the game.

[PAOKARA]

Goooaaaaalllll

[Blackhawk]

Konstanteliiiiiiiiaaaaaas

[Dutch Eagle]

Gggggooooooaaaallllll konstantelias

[Dutch Eagle]

First sub. Tissoudali for Chalov.

[PAOKARA]

F*** 2-1

[Dutch Eagle]

Pfffff. 2-1 

[Blackhawk]

Just could not contain their pressure.

[Dutch Eagle]

Ozdoyev and Konstantelias subbed out. Despodov and Schwab subbed in.

[Dutch Eagle]

Last sub: Bakayoko for Camara.

[Dutch Eagle]

And 3-1 .....

Deserved loss

[Blackhawk]

3:1 final. In the end we did not have the energy to do anything, but with little bit of luck could have escaped with a tie.

[PAOKARA]

We had moments, a little more polish and you never know. They were vulnerable in defence.

[Blackhawk]

O top of that it looks like Zivkovic was injured in the end.

[PAOKARA]

Hopefully it was just cramping. If not, Despodov gets the opportunity, honestly, I can’t understand the hate he gets around here.

[PAOKSYD]

I think a draw was a more fair result. 

Oshimen was clearly the difference to win the game. 

Kotarski, colley were out best. 

Chalov is no good imo. 

Taison and zivko both not at 100%

[Athens4]

This game proved why we are better off in Europa League. In the Champions League we would have been chasing shadows.

A decent display from Kotarski, Colley and Baba. The rest were quite average. Taison was somewhere else.
