Panathinaikos dominates the derby with AEK

The “clover” made … a match against the tragic “Union” and achieved a great and just victory with 2-1 in his derby OAKA.

It is one of the games that the winning team can hardly find someone who stands out more than the others. Sánchez, Vigiafanies, Hatzigiovanis, Kourbelis or any other player Panathinaikos choose someone who doesn’t fall …

On the other hand, and if someone wants to find a player who was saved from her … AEK It will take a lot of effort. Possibly, Paulinho and Macheiras who entered as a change and helped the “Union” to give signs of life from minute 87 onwards.

Panathinaikos made their best appearance this season and could have scored more goals against, with Laszlo Boloni taking the … wallet of Massimo Carrera, who managed to put himself in an even more difficult position.

The Romanian presented his players “read” and with a clear plan in his game, at a time when the Italian again made many mistakes and it is characteristic that for a long time Tankovic was as if he did not know in which position he was playing .

Great opportunity with … good morning!

Panathinaikos went to sleep at AEK and opened the scoring only in minute 3, when they lost a great opportunity. Hatzigiovanis crossed from the right, the ball went through everyone and ended up in Mauricio, who with his chest could not score in front of an empty net.

In general, the “greens” entered the game better and put a lot of pressure on their rival, who had a development problem in the first minutes. At the same time, Boloni’s team “hit” from the left with Zagaritis and Vigiafanies.

He brought him where he wanted but …

Little by little, the “Union” managed to control the … crazy rhythm that the game had in the first minutes and circulate the ball, looking for places towards Dioudis’ house. He threatened Livagia in the 18th minute and Mandalos, who was in the large area in the 21st minute but was delayed and Sánchez carried out a rescue operation.

The “yellow-blacks” were able to carry the game at the pace that theoretically suited them best, however, they could not create a great opportunity. On the other hand, the “clover” continued to threaten the counterattacks, especially with Sánchez, who was very good and found free spaces.

Sovereign on the opposite side, fair

In general, AEK appeared quite … smooth in the game, the “greens” returned to the fast pace they wanted and hitting the counterattack they achieved the goal they deserved based on the image. Hatzigiovanis put up tremendous energy, avoided Nenteltsiarou and tied Makeda, who despite Tsintotas’ effort made it 0-1 with a beautiful place in the 34th minute.

In fact, the “clover” could have scored a second goal, four minutes later! Once again, Hatzigiovanis made an impressive run once again, avoiding Insua wonderfully and going four-on-four with Tsintotas, who saved his team, repelled the ball.

Zagaritis magic energy and … 0-2!

AEK faced problems in all its lines and the image of the match was closer to 0-2 than 1-1. And finally that’s what happened, as Panathinaikos found a second goal in their delays at half time. Zagaritis made a fantastic play, dodging Vasilantonopoulos on the left, he turned to Kourbelis, who although he did not make the best possible play but after hitting the right crossbar he ended up in the net.

The “greens” put pressure on AEK’s right-back, who had a difficult night and normally a change was made (Paulinho passed) before the start of the second half. Tankovic also came out, the truth is that nobody understood in what position he was playing, with Livai García in his place. Carrera essentially changed his entire right side, with the Trinidad and Tobago player trying to take the lead in the second 45 minutes.

Exemplary management, first “clean” chance at 73!

AEK wanted to press but couldn’t, as Panathinaikos’ defensive function was exemplary and closed all spaces. The “greens” did not let their opponents breathe … and they handled the advantage in their favor, since they were not threatened at all. On the other hand, they themselves were threatening towards Tsintotas’ house, with Vigiafanies doing whatever they wanted with the rival defenders.

It is characteristic that AEK’s first “clean” opportunity came in the 73rd minute! Garcia crossed from the right, Ansarifard headed in from the height of the area but the ball went to the side of the “green” goal.

Oliveira gave a new interest, but it was too late

And where everything showed that the game was “off”, the “yellow-blacks” gave signs of life, giving new interest! Mandalos found Paulinho on the right, who made the center and Oliveira went down and with a powerful shot reduced to the 87th minute for AEK, which from … nowhere almost saved the game. In the 89th minute, Macheiras crossed from the left, Dioudis served and then Senkefeld conceded a corner off Livagia. A header from Hnid in the final came out and Panathinaikos celebrated a great victory.
