Panathinaikos, after the home games with Lamia (2-2) and Kifisia (1-1), this time had no appetite for adventures and returned to winning, with 2-0 over Ari in the 25th matchday of the Super League.
The “green” were lucky to take the lead just in the 3rd minute with a strong shot by Bakaseta and in the 5th minute the same player was beaten by Cuesta. The home team dominated the first half with Aris feeling overwhelmed and unable to meet the needs of the match. In the 18th minute, Ioannidis’ high-flying shot stopped on the crossbar.
In the 47th minute Zamora’s header from two meters went wide and in the 52nd minute Ioannidis made it 2-0 with a penalty. Bernard won the penalty from a foul and the ball found a defender’s hand. The infringement was seen by the VAR who called the referee to see the phase and thus indicated the finality of the penalties.
A banner from the organized fans of Panathinaikos for Tempi was spread in the 57th minute of the match, as was the number of victims. The banner read “The souls of the dead in the hell of Tempe. It was the sacrifice for politicians’ kickbacks.”
In the 60th minute, Aris, who went on the attack, missed a great opportunity with Garcia, who was saved by Dragovski. Then Panathinaikos “turned off” the match and intelligently managed the advantage, as the guests did not find any space to threaten. In fact, in the 88th minute, Arao went to place the third goal, but Ari’s defenders pushed him over the line.
Sweden’s Mohamed Al-Hakim showed yellows to Mladenovic, Odubajo, Arao.
