PAOK hosted Asteras in Toumba for the 11th Interwetten Super League match and starred Christos Tzolis, who took Dikefalos on his shoulder and led him to a 2-0 victory, opening the scoring with a goal and winning the penalty that Zivkovic executed correctly.

Things didn’t turn rosy for Dikefalos, who was lazy for the half and even lost ten players in the 38th minute after Kantouri’s dismissal.
However, Tzolis rose to his feet and led PAOK to their fifth straight league win. All five with Pablo García on the bench.
Thus he climbed to second place in the standings and left – halfway through the match with Granada in Toumba, practically indifferent since Dikefalos has no hope of qualifying – for the city derby with Aris.
PAOK STAYED IN NICOSIA FOR HALF
Both Pablo García and his colleague, Miroslav Schnauzner, had stressed that PAOK had to leave behind the defeat in GSP and the exclusion of the continuation in the Europa League. But the truth is that in the first part Dikefalos stayed in Nicosia and the match with Omonia.
The same slow and lazy behavior you can see in the Opta chart below. A remarkable header from Ingason in the 10th minute, while Swab’s shot is not worth mentioning.
Opta’s expected goals show you the overall threat of each team, the goals they “should” score based on their finals. The bigger the circle, the greater the possibility. You can choose the attack mode and see the finals of each team separately in the normal flow, from established phases, etc.
KANTOURI’S NERVES LEAD TO ABORTION
For the second consecutive championship after Lamia, Alexandros Paschalakis defends the home of PAOK. Changes in defense in relation to Omonia, since Ingason and Michailidis form the central duo (Varela and Crespo were in GSP), Rodrigo on the right and Giannoulis on the left (in Cyprus, Ouage had the right and Rodrigo, the left) .

In the process, however, the Senegalese entered the field as the Brazilian was injured in the phase chasing Sito.
The balance changed in the 38th minute after the dismissal of Omar El Kaddouri. The Moroccan fell to the ground, Suárez asked him to speak, protesting that he was doing theater.
The Kaddouri shoved him with his head on his chest. Fotias initially showed him a yellow card, but after contacting the VAR (Koumbarakis) and after seeing himself on the monitor, the phase expelled him.
TZOLIS GAME CHANGER
PAOK may have had a numerical advantage, but Christos Tzolis was the one who really changed the balance in the match.
Dikefalos was already the one who entered the field stronger with the start of the second half. He even had a crossbar off a Zivkovic cross from the left.
He opened the scoring in the 64th minute with a goal. He moved to the left, with a moving dribble he dodged Suárez and with a great right-hand shot sent the ball into the net of Papadopoulos’ goal.
Thus, with a solid goal from the Tzolis class, PAOK opened the scoring against the Tripoli team.
But he did not stay there alone. It was he who caused the annoyance after five minutes, entered the area and won the penalty from Pasalidis.
Andrija Zivkovic took over the execution and was accurate, forming the final score (2-0) in Toumba’s match.
