AEK 0-1: Union evaded Tomba and hit the top with an Arauho goal

AEK won the derby with PAOK, winning 1-0 thanks to Sergio Araujo’s stunning 80th-minute goal, in the second round of the Stoiximan Premier League Qualifiers.

Mandalos with a great cross from outside the area found the federation captain and, with incredible control and an incredible shot, sent the ball deep into Kotarski’s goal. The stage was also checked by VAR, but there was nothing “irregular” and the goal counted normally. Al-Ittihad has now risen to 63 points, which Panathinaikos achieved, while PAOK remained at 57 points.

Both teams had chances to score but could not score in any way. Al-Ittihad was a bit more dangerous in the first half and Thessaloniki in the second as Nelson Oliveira hit the post in the 65th minute. AEK found the net through Tzavela in the 76th minute, but the Greek stopper broke and the goal was disallowed.

The match witnessed great tension between the players, and a spark erupted in the seventh minute stage.
