Lamia – Olympiakos 1-5: Breakout and waiting for Fenerbahce – 2024-04-07 18:56:26

Impressive in Lamia, Olympiacos crushed the team of the same name with 5-1 in the 4th matchday of the Super League playoffs and goes with a different air in its European duel with Fenerbahce (11/4).

This time Olympiacos entered the match under suspicion and not like in the first round of the championship where they lost 1-0. Despite the rotation of Mendiliber (it left out Podense, Ciquinho, Ortega, Carmo, Fortuni) as next Thursday the “red and white” welcome Fenerbahce in the first match of the quarter-finals of the Conference League, the Piraeus were dominant in Lamia from the first they didn’t let the home team catch their breath for a minute with the aim of cleaning up the game as quickly as possible. And they managed to do it from the first half where they led 3-0, with Jovetic playing a big role. The Montenegrin opened the scoring with an assist from Martins with a powerful shot in the 22nd minute and four minutes later (26th minute) he won a penalty after being tipped over by Tsiloulis, with which El Kaabi scored his 17th league goal. In the stoppage time of the half, Papadopoulos sent the ball into Koselef’s net (0-3) from a sweet cross by Jovetić in his attempt to catch up with El Kaabi.

In the second half, Olympiacos started with a missed chance by Masoura and Lamia “answered” with their first big missed chance by Lake in the 53′. In the 63′ Koselef saved in a four-four with Martins and then the pace dropped with the Piraeus managing the score with their mind on… Fener. Nevertheless, in the 81st minute from Ese’s cross, Cornezos tried to clear, the ball took a strange trajectory and ended up in the net for the home team’s 2nd own goal and the “red and whites” 4th (0-4) and in the 85th minute, due to his mistake Cornezou, El Arabi also passed Koselev and scored 0-5. In the 87th minute, Lake, assisted by Tosic, scored the goal of honor for the hosts with the final 1-5…
