Lamia – Panathinaikos 0-5: Odostrotiras Ioannidis, five points for Trefoil (vids)

Starring the unstoppable Fotis Ioannidis who created two goals and scored two more, Panathinaikos eased past Lamia 5-0 three days before the decisive derby against AEK at the OPAP Arena.

Lamia-Panathinaikos: This is how they played

Fatih Terim’s Panathinaikos had two changes to the starting line-up compared to the match against Leoforos last Sunday. Lodingin started under the posts. Huancar left back, Kotsiras right back and Akaidin with Gedvai the two stoppers. Arao, Cerin, Bakasetas in midfield. Bernard on the left wing, Limnios on the right and Ioannidis at the top of the attack. In the 20th minute, Bernard was forced to change and Verbic took his place.

The Lamia of Leonidas Vokolos lined up with Koselef in the home defense. Right back Vasilantonopoulos, left back Amaral and Cornezos with Tzanetopoulos the two stoppers. Jandaris, Slivka, Nunies on the axis of the center. Tsiloulis and Lake behind Malchi.

The creation of Ioannidis put Panathinaikos in a leading role

Fotis Ioannidis has been in beast mode for some time and is not affected by anything. Not even from last week’s vomiting spread of fake news. The Greek striker, when he is not scoring, wears the creator’s uniform, he is equally excellent outside the “box”, leading Panathinaikos to 2-0 at halftime.

In the 23rd minute, he broke the Lamia defense from the axis, served to Limnios, whose shot ended up on the crossbar for Verbic to score into an empty net in his first contact with the ball. Ioannidis had sent the… message from the 4th minute when he laid on Bakaseta but Koselev kicked for a corner.

After the goal, the “clover” left the ball to the hosts and looked for the goal in the open field. Which he succeeded in 44′. From an excellent pass by Bakaseta, Ioannidis… danced past Cornezos, stepped into the area and gave the assist to “Baka” who made it 2-0 with a nice spot.

“Green”… siphon with a show by Fotis and Bakaseta

Panathinaikos entered the second half furious and within six minutes scored three times and turned a difficult away mission into a party.

In the 54th minute, from a Bakaseta corner kick, Ioannidis beat everyone in the air and made it 3-0. In the 57th minute, Bakasetas made it 4-0 with a shot from inside the area and in the 60th minute, Ioannidis took the Lamia defense by storm and defeated Koselef for the 5-0.

The “greens” dismantled Lamia, giving Terim the opportunity to rest the main players in view of AEK. Huancar, Akaidin, Bakasetas, Ioannidis went to the bench early.

The “clover” let the foot off the gas, with the remaining minutes of the match being of a procedural nature.

Lamia tried to score the goal of honor but Lodingin with two great interventions said “no” to Tsiloulis, as he also denied the goal to Vasilantonopoulos.

MAN OF THE MATCH: Fotis Ioannidis. It’s been a difficult week but the answers are given on the pitch. Where he likes. The Greek striker destroyed Lamia’s defense, set up a regular party. He started the first goal with his own feet, he assisted the second after an individual effort, he scored the third and fifth goals of Triphyllios.

AT THE HEIGHT OF: Tasos Bakasetas. In the… competition with Ioannidis, he did great and his performance was on the same straight. With a nice placement he made it 2-0, his own corner kick made it 3-0 and he also scored the fourth goal with a strong finish from inside the area. Super performance by the captain of the Greek National Team.

weak link: The inhibitory behavior of Lamia, especially in the second half, was bad and did not find solutions to the problems that Panathinaikos and especially Fotis Ioannidis were constantly creating.

The blunder: While the score was at 0-0, Lamia had some good conditions outside the Panathinaikos area but the selections were rushed, lacked quality and were wasted.

THE STRAGALI: The arbitration of the Gospel today at “Athanassios Diakos” is good.

THE GAZZETTA FUND: Panathinaikos came through Lamia like… a roadblock, destroyed the local team 5-0 and goes to the match of the year on Wednesday against AEK in New Philadelphia. Where if he manages to do the “double” he will spectacularly increase the chances of winning this year’s championship.
