And they did so impressively, playing some good football and dominating for long spells.<\/p>\n<p>The home side look determined to try and get a win from the game, while <strong>Olympiacos<\/strong> seemed to have come to the <strong>Toumba<\/strong> more focused on defending, without pressing high up the pitch and taking risks.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Double-headed Eagle<\/strong> almost took an early lead after two minutes but <strong>Thomas Murg<\/strong> failed to find the net from <strong>Schwab&#8217;s <\/strong>excellent pass. Olympiacos responded in the 13th minute with <strong>\u039c&#8217;Vila <\/strong>denied first by <strong>Paschalakis<\/strong> and then by the post, while <strong>Kamara<\/strong> was also off target with a shot.<\/p>\n<p>In the 28th minute <strong>Ingason<\/strong> threatened with a header, but <strong>Jose Sa <\/strong>reacted well and parried the ball for a corner. After 36 minutes, <strong>Paschalakis<\/strong> produced an impressive stop to thwart a <strong>Kostas Fortounis <\/strong>free-kick as the first half ended goalless.<\/p>\n<p>In the second half, <strong>PAOK<\/strong> came out in even more determined mood, took control of possession and controlled the tempo, managing to open the scoring in the 51st minute. <strong>Sa<\/strong> pulled off a fine save to initially save <strong>Warda&#8217;s <\/strong>goal-bound header, but <strong>Ingason<\/strong> followed up to ram the rebound into the roof of the net to make it 1-0.<\/p>\n<p>With confidence on their side, the home side looked for a second goal to kill off the game and lock up the points, but chances from <strong>Ingason <\/strong>and <strong>Warda<\/strong> went begging.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Olympiacos<\/strong> then managed to level matters with their only significant chance of the second half in the 77th minute. <strong>Fortounis<\/strong> sent over a precise corner kick which <strong>Ba<\/strong> rose to meet perfectly unmarked to head home for 1-1.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> pressed until the last minute for a goal to try and win the game, but a curling effort from substitute <strong>Tzolis<\/strong> in the third minute of added time cannoned off <strong>Sa&#8217;s<\/strong> left post with the Portuguese goalkeeper beaten. The final whistle followed shortly after that, with the two teams sharing the spoils.<\/p>\n<p>PAOK ended up with 17 goal attempts to Olympiacos&#8217; six, but didn&#8217;t manage to reduce the gap between the two teams in the standings, and now the attention of the team&#8217;s efforts turns to the upcoming away match against <strong>OFI<\/strong> in <strong>Heraklion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Team lineups:<\/p>\n<p>PAOK: <strong>Paschalakis<\/strong>, <strong>Vieirinha<\/strong>, <strong>Ingason<\/strong>, <strong>Crespo<\/strong>, <strong>Giannoulis<\/strong>, <strong>Schwab<\/strong>, <strong>El Kaddouri<\/strong>, <strong>Warda<\/strong>, <strong>\u0391.\u0396ivkovic<\/strong>, <b>Murg <\/b>(83&#8242; <strong>Tzolis<\/strong>), <strong>Krmencik<\/strong> (69&#8242; <strong>Swiderski<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>Olympiacos: Sa, Rafinha, Semedo, Ba, Reabciuk, M&#8217;Vila, Kamara, Valbuena (71&#8242; Hassan), Fortounis (82&#8242; Bouchalakis), Vrousai (61&#8242; Randelovic), El Arabi (82&#8242; Masouras).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PAOK were the better side.
