Panserraikos – AEK 0-4: Cleared at the finish
AEK returned to victory with a 4-0 win over Panserraikos, highlighted by Barnabas Varga's two goals.
AEK had a strong performance against Panserraikos, securing a 4-0 victory that was crucial for their league campaign. Barnabas Varga was instrumental in the win, scoring twice in the match, the first one coming at the 55th minute after a solid buildup. Despite initially struggling to break down a well-organized Panserraikos defense, AEK's persistence paid off as they found the net with additional goals from Marin (penalty) and Grujić, sealing the deal in the final minutes.
Throughout the match, AEK maintained controlling possession but faced a resilient Panserraikos side that effectively limited their scoring opportunities in the first half. The home team showed some defensive solidity, particularly in the early phases, but an array of set pieces ultimately turned the tide in favor of AEK. The second-half performance underscored AEK's capability to capitalize on chances, demonstrating their attacking prowess as they broke through the Panserraikos defense to score four times by the end of the game.
This win not only boosts AEK’s morale but is essential for their position in the league standings as they strive for championship success. On the other hand, despite a promising defensive showing early on, Panserraikos will need to regroup and assess their approach moving forward, especially in light of their inability to match AEK's intensity as the game wore on.
