After a spectacular and phase-rich game at “Athanassios Diakos”, the Super League champion beat the home team 3-1 and “opened” the gap from Panathinaikos, PAOK to 4 points and from Olympiakos to 8, with one more game from the rest of the “big ones”.
The dominance of the guests was absolute from the start of the match. Almeida’s players started strongly restricting the hosts to half the pitch and saw their dominance come to fruition in the 17th minute, with a fine ‘combine’ on a set piece.
After a period of time in the area of Koselef, Kyriakos Papadopoulos kicked a corner and in Amrabad’s execution Vida came from behind and with a nailed header opened the score, taking advantage of a phase that seemed from the beginning to have been worked on a lot in training by the Argentinian coach of the Union .
In the 27th minute a good shot by Zuber went over the post, in the 32nd minute Tosic sent the ball into the arms of Stankovic with a shot from outside the area and in the 35th minute Sidibe’s direct foul sent the ball touching the right post of Lamia and end up on the outside of the nets.
Without their top scorer Karlitos (suspended) and Tsiloulis, who was sidelined with a last-minute problem, the Vokolos side might not threaten and AEK made the most of it, increasing the pressure and getting a second goal in 41′.
Pineda stole the ball from Tosic around midfield, raced on as the Serb mightn’t keep pace and found Eliasson on the move at the right moment, who entered the area and slotted home to make it 0-2.
Even more entertaining for the fans was the second half, as Lamia decided to take the lead and the game took a fast pace. However, the measures taken by the home team came at a price, as Zuber headed 0-3 in the 63′, once more from a set ball (foul) and Amrabad’s execution.
In the very next minute, the hosts reduced, when Sidclay left a marginal position on Sidibe’s back following Slivka’s pass, entered the area and with a shot in the closed corner “beat” Stankovic for 3-1.
In the 63′, Eliasson missed a great double chance, as he initially failed to score from close range and later in the phase and on Amrabad’s cross from the left, he sent the ball over the crossbar.
The hosts also had a double chance in the 76th minute, with Stankovic initially blocking Sidkley’s shot and in the second phase, Simon’s header from a very good position went wide, so that AEK had a second goal in the 90th +4 , in clay shots.
