Super League, Lamia-PAOK 1-1: Draw “knife” and the title is difficult – Newsbomb – News

His “suicide”. PAOK at Ghoul. The “two-headed” for her 7th matchday of play offs, became the first team not to defeat Leonidas Vokolos’ team. Even managing to get the draw, in the 9th minute of stoppage time! 1-1 is a huge setback for the “double-header”, who is kept at a distance from the top.

Slivka opened the scoring in stoppage time in the first half and in the second half PAOK seemed unable to find ways to threaten. He lacked “freshness” and imagination in his game. Details that paid off, even if he was tied with Schwab at the end of overtime. He got a point, but the two he leaves in Lamia are a “knife” in his title hopes.

The Thessalonikis are at 68 points and -4 from the top, while Lamia, with their first point in the play offs, reached 35.

The match started with Marcos Antonio making a weak shot in the 7th minute and Koselev blocking, in the first good moment. Two minutes later Kontonikos tried to “hang” Kotarski, with the ball going wide.

PAOK threatened again in the 26th minute, with Marcos Antonio making the pass and Constantelia unable to score. Three minutes later, Sastre, Marcos Antonio combined, with the turn finding Ozdoev to head wide.

On the half hour, Lamia threatened with Martinez finally shooting wide. The home team had a great moment in the 40th minute, when the guests made a mistake, but the home team did not react properly at the end of the phase.

In stoppage time of the first half, Kenziora’s header found Koselev on hand.

The ending was different, however, at 45+4′. Lamia did not miss a beat this time. The cross was made, Malchi made a good chest save and Slivka sent the ball into the PAOK net for 1-0!

In the 47th minute, Samata essentially ruined PAOK’s counterattack. Marcos Antonio saw Koselev beat him in the 55th minute in a side four. Four minutes later, Brandon Thomas’ header went wide.

PAOK’s pressure continued, but in the final attempt or the final pass, it seemed that there was also anxiety in the Thessaloniki team as the minutes passed. In the 75th minute, Michaelidis had a header out. In the 83rd minute, Tosic’s shot did not worry Kotarski.

As the match entered stoppage time, Lamia’s Amaral was sent off for saying something to the referee. Shortly after, PAOK with Despodov had a foul in a good position, with the ball going out.

The “two-headed” managed to find the goal he was looking for, in the 9th minute of stoppage time! Despodov made the cross and Schwab sent the ball into the net for 1-1!

In the next phase, the Austrian headed backwards, with Koselev not worried. The time was not enough, however, so PAOK left two extremely valuable points in Lamia, in their quest for the title.
