Losing points for Eek In New Philadelphia where big missed chances and goalposts led to Gila against a deserved Lamia who left the OPAP Arena with a point (1-1). The visitors led throughout the match thanks to a goal from Furtado in the 40th minute in their only chance of the match, with AEK equalizing in the 87th minute through Moukoudi after several missed chances. In stoppage time with Eliasson and Koita, AEK stopped the ball twice on the post, leaving two points on home soil.
AEK – Lamia: This is how they started
Matias Almeida made no changes to his chosen eleven compared to the one that featured in AEK’s debut against OFI. Strakossa was in goal, Belius, Mokudi, Vida and Rota formed the back four and Szymanski and Pineda were the duo in central midfield. On the wings, Cuita and Amrabat started on the left and right respectively, with Ljubicic in the centre behind Levi Garcia at the top of the attack. Her The ghoul Marinos Satsias started with Kostic in goal, Andrade, Cornezzo and Giannuzzo in defence and Saramanda and Ring on the left and right flanks respectively. Doranlis, Pekov and Mikić started in midfield and Furtado and Vlachomitru started up front.
AEK in control as Lamia takes the lead with their first chance
AEK made it difficult for themselves in the first half because despite their world-class superiority and the chances they created, they were unable to advance and Lamia “dropped” their only chance by going to the locker room in front of the score. Al-Ittihad moved the ball in an attempt to penetrate the visitors’ multi-faceted defense that closed well in their own half. In the 15th minute, after a corner kick by Amrabad, Moukoudi got a header, but Kostic fell to his corner and saved it, ten minutes later after a pass by Ljubicic, Koita shot perfectly from outside the area, which Lamia’s goalkeeper saved. With your fingertips.
The yellow and black players had the ball and tried mainly from the wings to find passages to open up Lamia’s blocking function without finding a way, wanting something more at the atomic level and certainly faster movements. In the 40th minute, after a corner kick, Lamia “froze” the Obab Arena, making the score 0-1 in the 40th minute.
After a corner and a counter-attack win, combined with a generally poor save by Union, the ball went the other way inside the area and Furtado found space to slot into the side-netting of Strakosa with a fine left-footed strike. However, AIK could have equalised before the break if Levi headed home in stoppage time from a great position in the box after a mistake by Bilius.
AEK played a one-goal game and scored two goals but only saved the point.
AEK had to come out of the blocks quickly in search of an equaliser, but Koita and Levi’s shots from outside the box in the 46th and 49th minutes fell short, while Cornezos saved Lamia’s promotion alone in the 53rd minute at the last minute. Almeida replaced Amrabad, Pineda, Eliasson and Lamela, pushing Ljubicic into the middle of the pitch to energise his team’s midfield, which was constantly attacking in an attempt to open up the visitors’ narrow defence.
However, Kostic was there whenever needed to make another crucial intervention in the 61st minute when Lamela took out Leiva in a one-on-one with the Lamea goalkeeper saying no on this occasion too, while in the 67th minute Koita tried another shot from outside the area, finding the outside of the net. Almeida dropped both Mandalo and Odubajo into the game in place of Szymanski and Ruta, making his lineup more aggressive as time went on. But chances were wasted for AEK one by one, with Lamela firing a lone high shot wide in the 70th minute and Odubajo’s turn a minute later after a fine effort from Lamela saw the ball go over the bar.
Almeida Zuber passed for Ljubicic, all for all. AEK were constantly on the attack, and Lamia scored through Vlachomitros, but the goal was disallowed as they were in an offside position with Union in front. Eventually, AEK had a chance to equalise in the 87th minute. Lamela was brought down and Moukoudi’s header made it 1-1, with Union scoring after a series of missed chances.
The crossbar denied the surprise in the 92nd minute after Eliasson Ake’s turn, while Levy’s header in the 94th minute went over the crossbar.
AEK were incredibly unlucky as Koita’s long-range shot in the 96th minute hit the crossbar to leave Union with two points and Lamia coming away with a great result from New Philadelphia.
MVP: Kostic, who played a pivotal role with his big tackles in leaving Lamia with the point from New Philadelphia.
At their best: Kornizos and Giannotsos played a very strong game in defence for Lamia. AEK’s Lamela gave the creative imagination and also provided an assist against Moukoudi.
Weak link: Amrabad’s poor play on the right wing. AEK got nothing from the Dutch-Moroccan winger this time. But Al Ittihad’s ineffectiveness came at a cost overall.
The big mistake: AEK’s blocking action in the static phase for Lamia. The ball went the other way after the corner kick and the Union defence gave space to Furtado who took advantage and opened the scoring.
The Stray: Polykides did not have a difficult period. However, AEK objected to the six minutes of added time and shouted that it should have been more with the changes and delays made by the Lamia players in the match.
His box magazine: AEK paid the price for their incompetence, which also cost them several points last year. The hard-working Lamia took advantage of the weak reaction of the Union in a fixed phase. In the first half, AEK did not have quick thinking and execution, however, they created moments and in the second half, although they crushed their opponent, they only managed to save a point, finishing the match with a score of 26-2!
