In the match against P.A.O.K., which took place at the “G. Karaiskakis” stadium on Sunday, October 2 (Superleague MD 5), the home team played simple and fast, pressuring hard their opponents’ middle and defensive lines -especially in the first half- thus managing to turn the game around (0-1 to 2-1).
Balafas scored the opener at 24 minutes for the visitors but Olympiacos netted two goals with Fuster (35΄) and Djebbour (42΄) prior to half time; score which proved to be the final one, although the reds could have netted many more goals.
