Qualifier signed by Tsolakis. The 20-year-old goalkeeper, who showed his best performance in an Olympiacos jersey, led his team to a 1-0 victory over Aris in Cl. Vikelidis” for the Cup quarter-finals and thus the “red-whites” with a total score of 2:0 received a ticket to the four, where they will play with AEK in the early final.
In a match with a lot of nerves and interruptions, Aris almost controlled the situation to the end, but failed to turn the chances he created into goals, with most of them stopped by the young goalkeeper of Olympiacos. Tsolakis said no to Etembo’s kick in the 1st minute, as well as Gray’s kick in stoppage time. For their part, Olympiacos was close to a goal from Valbuena (20 minutes) and also thanks to Biel’s turn in the 29th minute when Mazikos cleared the ball before the ball crossed the line.
The decisive moment in the quarter-finals came in the 82nd minute when Doi knocked Gray down in the box. The Hungarian referee Vand showed the Olympiacos stopper a penalty and a red card. Gray (84′) took over the penalty himself, but Tsolakis fell correctly and blocked an unsuccessful shot by the Englishman, who missed a unique opportunity to at least send the match into overtime. Thus, after five minutes, El-Arabi went on the counterattack, placed Questa correctly and “closed” the qualification.
With a score of 1:0, the Red-Whites eliminated Ari – AEK easily dealt with Panserraikos 3:1.
Previously, her ticket had been confirmed, as expected, by AEK. The Union, despite having competed with many changes, won 3:1 against Panserraikos at the Serres Municipal Stadium without difficulty and came close to 4th place with a total score of 6:1. The leader of the Yellows was Petros Mandalos, who scored twice in the 21st and 51st minutes, and Mahairas scored the third goal for AEK with ten minutes left in the game. Katsantonis equalized in favor of the hosts in the 49th minute.
