The match may have been overshadowed by strong protests from Dikefalos over the refereeing by Dutchman Bass Naihaus, but there was also a competitive part, in which Akis Mantzios’ team triumphed with the well-known recipe.

The “yellows” scored the goal they needed just before the end of the first half and then went into safe mode, as is usual in most matches. Guided by good defensive performance and consistency, the locals managed the result and achieved a great victory.

Further, the only 0.47 xGoals of PAOK prove that Dikefalos was not particularly threatening to Zakari Bushe’s frames.

THE INCONCEPTABLE 100% IN TAKLIN

However, for this to happen and for the long-awaited positive result to arrive in the local derby, some impressive performances from Aris’ midfielders were necessary. In fact, Maggio’s players raised a “yellow wall” in front of their defense, have the inconceivable 100% on successful tackles with 10/10.

At the forefront is Sasha, who has returned to the starting lineup in recent games, “disarming” the excellent James Jego and assuming the role of exterminator. The brazilian had 5/5 successful tackles, followed by Facudo Bertoglio with 2/2, as well as Mateo García, Bruno Gama and James Jego with 1/1. At the same time, PAOK won only 9/14 tackles total.

Opta’s graph shows tackles and robberies from Mars media:

The green triangles are the tickets won, the blue ones are the three steals added by the home team.

And as the graph shows, the majority of tackles and steals were from the right for Aris, because from there PAOK played Dimitris Giannoulis.

Behold.

A HARMONIC TRINITY

But beyond the inconceivable percentage of correct tackles, Sasha along with Javier Matija and Facudo Bertoglio, who made up the trio in midfield, were omnipresent, as can be seen in the defensive zones below. graphic of choose. The three players complemented each other and came together harmoniously.

The polygons show the space that the actions of each soccer player took. The actions are fouls, steals, blocked shots, tackles, and ejections. Red is the more than 10 actions of a player, blue is 5 to 10 actions and yellow is 1 to 5.

In essence, Sasha had taken over the larger field of action, “covering” the PAOK forwards and providing important help to Matija. (1st in occupancy recoveries with 10), which had a more organizational role, while on the other hand Bertoglio was the … destroyer in the first line of defense, high in the opponent’s half. A trio, then, perfectly worked by Maggio that brought the ideal result.

Aris continues to win in his own way, investing in defensive cohesion, but he will also have to slowly improve in attack. As long as he finds the goal, he doesn’t seem to have a problem. However, if the goal does not reach, it has not found alternative forms of action. And that is the problem. Until then, however, you can rejoice in your victory.
