Olympiacos were defeated 2-0 by Nantes on the sixth and final round of the Europa League groups.
Piraeus ended his presence in Europe this year with two points in the group. Olympiacos suffered their third home defeat in the matches of the eighth group of the tournament.
Nantes, on the other hand, took their second victory in a row. The French, after three points scored in Faliro and a draw between Freiburg and Qarabag, took second place and will continue to play in the Europa League.
The French entered the match furiously and scored a goal in the 2nd minute, which was annulled as offside. In the 6th minute, Bowler’s shot did not bother Lafon, who easily blocked. Two minutes later, Wee-Jo headed a cross from Andrutsos, but missed the target.
Guests tried to threaten, but to no avail. At 19 Piraeus missed a great opportunity for a minute. El Araby headed off Androutsos’s cross and Lafon went for a corner.
Moments later, Bowler intercepted the ball, but the shot he attempted was weak. The pattern was the same: Olympiacos tried to threaten mostly from the right flank, but without a big phase after El Arabi’s header.
In the 51st minute, Buchalakis made a strong pass to Kamaras. Nantes began to gain yards on the field and became increasingly menacing.
In the 60th minute, Ganago made a good left hand and his attempt ended in the hands of Tsolakis. At 63 minute Kunde launched a long-range shot, but Lafon blocked.
Piraeus had chances in the second half but had problems in the final. Nantes scored a goal in the 79th thin with close head of Mohammed.
In the 81st minute, Bowler took the ball away from Wee-Jo, but he could not control it. At 85 minute Sissoko struck his head, but missed the target. The guests made it 0-2 at 90 a minute with Blaz.
