PAOK, Panathinaikos and European Olympiacos counterattack

On a positive note, the Greek teams closed their obligations in Europe, as PAOK won Riga (2–0) and Helsinki (1–0) respectively in Europa and Conference League, while the significant absences took the rank of tie at the headquarters of Steawa Bucharest (0–0) showing that it has changed European prestige. Two wins and a tie, with which was the account of our teams in the games of Thursday (28/11/24) at the Europa and Conference League, with the 3 clubs staying in the bay for their qualifying for the knock-out events, while having good performances. Olympiacos T lasted in Bucharest and if he played without two of his key football players (Chikinio, Zelson Martins), what if he stayed away from his good performances, Olympiacos showed for another game that he is too tough to die, with Steawa even though he was better in most of the race, not succeeding in winning the Piraeus team. Medilibar’s team unscathed the difficult work she had, put in her luggage a point which can be proved “gold” for the sequel and remained within the 9–24 positions leading to the Europa League playoffs. At the same time the “reds” stayed at -2 from the first 8th which gives the direct ticket to knock-out. Wounded left the game Yaremchuk who in a claim of the ball collided with a Steawa player and came out bleeding out of the match. Good management of the match by Olympiacos coach, who in the time the Romanians were pushing for the goal, changed system to his team, resulting in the match in balance. PAOK did their duty in Latvia PAOK only wanted a win against Riga, with the players of the “white blacks” easily winning the Latvians 2–0, winning their first three points in this year’s Europa League. With Despodov having 1 goal and 1 assist, Zivkovic making a very good game and Chalov scoring his 2nd goal with PAOK, the Thessalonians got what they wanted and offered joy to their 1,000 fans who were at the stadium platforms. PAOK now has 4 points, he is in the 27th place of the score in the Europa League, but he is at -1 from the 24th, which leads to the playoffs, for entering the knock-out of the event. And with 3 games left, Lucescu players are sure to do everything in order to be able to secure the playoff games and continue to the next stage of the event. The Thessalonians may have competed without Tyson and Brandon Thomas, however they reminded appearances from last season, with the team from Thessaloniki being dominant in the game from the 1st to the 90th minute, not leaving room for Riga to believe that she can take something from the game. He got what Panathinaikos wanted. Panathinaikos won Helsinki 1–0 in OAKA, scored his 4th win in 5 games with Rui Vitoria on his bench and 1st in the Conference League, with the “trifl” staying alive for his participation in the playoffs of the event. The goal that judged the match was scored in the 33rd minute, when in a lasting phase the ball from Ingason’s shot fought against Tuvius and ended up in the guest nets. The “greens” now have 4 points and are in 2nd place of the Conference score, while showing that the Portuguese technician has brought air winner to the team, which did not exist in the previous period. Panathinaikos besides winning all 3 valuable points he took, he also keeps the fact that his focus remained intact, with the hosts even shouting for a phase in the 82nd minute of the race, when the ball after a shot by Cherin seems to have crossed the final line of the goal, with the referee of the match however not blaming the goal for Panathinaikos.
