PAOK B - Panathinaikos B

Greece - Super League 2, Group A, Round 29

PAOK visited Serres to participate in a celebratory match for Panserraikos, who were celebrating their promotion and return to Super League 1. However, the match ended in a goalless draw, partially spoiling the celebration. On a positive note, PAOK put up a good performance and rose to the challenge against the champions. However, the negative aspect is that they failed to score for the third consecutive match, which is unusual considering their performance throughout the season.

In the first half, PAOK had only one notable moment with Gordeziani, and they created some concern for the opposition defense in the 31st and 37th minutes. In the second half, Monastirlis made an important intervention in the 58th minute, and five minutes later, Gordeziani came close to scoring. PAOK's goalkeeper made two more crucial saves in the 74th and 89th minutes, and in stoppage time, they hit the crossbar with Spyrakos. PAOK will now face Panathinaikos B and conclude the season with a formal match against Macedonian, which will provide them with strong motivation to achieve a high score.

In terms of competition news, Pablo Garcia has selected a mission for the team without any significant differences. Panagiotou, Tsopouroglou, Ninoua, Koulouris, Balomenos, Brandonits, and Smyrlis are not part of the plans for various reasons, while all other footballers are available.

PAOK and Panathinaikos usually play open matches, with both teams scoring and conceding goals with relative ease. It is likely that their upcoming game will follow the same pattern and produce another high-scoring encounter.
