Nikos Athanasiou writes about Panathinaikos’ football party at OAKA in the final of the league phase of the Conference League.
THE Panathinaikos he did everything right on Thursday night. Next to every box of his football mission against the Dynamo Minska green tick entered. With his most impressive performance this year, in the first game he found such quality performances scoring four times in finals equal to 2.48xGoals.
Clover in the final of the league phase managed to:
*Does his duty, self-evident, to defeat the Belarusians and seal qualification to the intermediate stage of Conference League.
*Score a lot of goals, climb from 19th to 13th, avoid Chelsea in the round of 16 and while for one goal he lost the 12th place in the final ranking. Caution: It is not a success for how it entered the event. He should have finished in the top eight, been directly in the 16. But on the other hand, after three consecutive unsuccessful results, he ran a streak of as many victories and awaits him either the Banja Luka either the Vikingurgroups that are obviously not high barriers.
*Heats the world found in OAKA. To create for the first time since August and the victory over Lance, a stand that liked what it saw. They returned home fed up with what they saw. The connection is growing, getting stronger and it’s a huge shame the punishment by the DEABwhich we will talk about in another note, keeping only this: The law is a joke, for a cracker, for a single fool to punish teams, players, normal fans, season holders. And that applies to everyone, not just him Panathinaikos. Yes to strictness, no to the logic of “headaches, we cut heads”.
*To confirm once again in the last period that he is now normal, a good team, with him Rui Vitoria to stamp and get things from the roster worthy of his quality. Eleven matches, nine wins, one draw, one loss.
*Succeeded in completing his first phase Conference League gaining 105 places in the special classification. From 225 he has been to 120 and is building his future in the European draws.
From then on, the game with her Dynamo Minskit was a high-level football performance from the three most quality, most expensive players on the roster. Tete, Unai, Ioannidis they offered impressive moments, demonstrated quality on the grass, with amazing actions.
The Brazilian scored twice with very nice finishes. When it’s near the 1vs1 situation area, it’s… fire! His personal opponents didn’t even see him, he found super executions and could have scored more goals if he had been more effective in heading the first half before an empty net and of course if he had made a better penalty execution.
The Moroccan midfielder danced normally on the grass. Amazing things. And of course, substance. From his own excellent cross, he broke two lines of the opponent’s defense and gave the opportunity for an assist to Kotsira. In the second goal, he kept the ball as long as he had to, created space, took out Tete in the back of the net. In the third he put the ball into the area for his layup Djuriche had the ball rolling in his head Tete which did not become a goal and gave his best performance in the green shirt.
The best, however, came at the end. When this child has the psychology at the height, when his self-confidence on the playing field, is at the normal levels for his quality, then, goals like this can occur. It was like the god of football, from up there, the Johan Cruyffhe owed it to him. Why? Because moments earlier he gave the ball in the penalty to Tete to score the hat trick.
It’s not just the thirty-five meter lob. No, it’s not just that. It’s also the control he takes to get himself in a position to execute from that distance. Incredible golara, things that only he can do in Greece. Proven. It is obvious that his third consecutive goal is… a blessing for him Panathinaikoswho managed to “survive” without their best player and now that he is here, things can only get better.
With these and with these, the job is done, o Panathinaikos with the image he has, with the progress he is showing, he can obviously go far in the competition. From the moment he avoided her Chelsea. Londoners are simply not played. Neither does Rapid but neither did Fiorentina they can scare him but one step at a time. First the intermediate phase, although something tells us that there will be a comeback in the… exotic Banja Luka. Where, to lighten things up a bit, even those who come from there don’t go a second time.
Some notes about the finale:
-Good game from him Yannis Kotsirastook the opportunity of the coach, shows him that he is in a position to trust him, when he needs breaths George Vagiannidis. Nice move and assist on the first goal.
-The same applies to him Alexander Geremegev. If he can Panathinaikos keeping him as a third solution until the end of the season will be ideal. Like the Lightso he too, is in a phase where he is connected to knitting again.
-If there is anything negative from last night, it is his injury problem Maxwho didn’t manage to complete the game, having a decent image by the time it came out, but nothing great…
