Time for everyone to acclimatize, to learn their specific role on the pitch, and for the team to begin to show a level of automation and comfort with their game. At the same time, however, there is no room for any loss of points, and this has been on everyone&#8217;s mind.<\/p>\n<p>The winning mentality that <strong>Razvan Lucescu<\/strong> wants so much to instill into the minds of his players made an appearance again in <strong>Agrinio<\/strong>. Despite coming up against a strong and tough opponent, <strong>PAOK<\/strong> refused to lose or settle for anything less that three points. The team fought until the final whistle and celebrated a great victory in the end.<\/p>\n<p>The Double-headed Eagle coach decided not to make many changes. <strong>Taylor<\/strong> took the injured <strong>Vieirinha&#8217;s<\/strong> place on the right and <strong>Douglas<\/strong> started instead of <strong>Biseswar<\/strong> behind <strong>Akpom,<\/strong> who was preferred to <strong>Swiderski<\/strong> up front.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> began the match dynamically and threatened early on in the 2nd minute through <strong>Murg<\/strong>, who was thwarted by <strong>Rodriguez<\/strong>. <strong>PAOK<\/strong> missed another opportunity in the 15th minute, this time through <strong>Douglas,<\/strong> before the phase of the first half came along in the 32nd minute that was to change the game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Douglas<\/strong> served up an excellent pass from 40-yards to take out the home team&#8217;s defense, and <strong>Mitrita<\/strong> gleefully scored his first goal in the Greek <strong>championship<\/strong> with a header to put <strong>PAOK<\/strong> 1-0 ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panetolikos<\/strong> responded immediately and pushed forward to try and pull level, missing a great opportunity in first-half added time as <strong>Morsay<\/strong> failed to convert from a good position.<\/p>\n<p>The scene was reversed at the start of the second half. In the 47th minute <strong>Lucas Taylor<\/strong> missed a great opportunity as home goalkeeper <strong>Rodriguez<\/strong> saved the day, making a great stop in a one-on-one situation.<\/p>\n<p>The hosts reacted quickly again and looked for the equalizer, which came in the 59th minute. <strong>Vergos<\/strong> headed on a corner and the ball arrived for <strong>Diaz<\/strong>\u00a0to nod the ball home and make it 1-1.<\/p>\n<p>That set up a grandstand finish to the game, which proved to be a bit like a&#8230; rodeo. The pace and tempo was great, with both teams trying their utmost to threaten and score what would surely be the winning goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paschalakis<\/strong> produced a great save in the 62nd minute to deny <strong>Lluy<\/strong>, before both coaches made their moves in terms of bringing on substitutes, and then the match was decided in the 80th minute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sidcley<\/strong> collected the ball from <strong>Swiderski<\/strong> in the penalty area and showed impeccable movement and execution to find the back of the net to make it 2-1 to <strong>PAOK. <\/strong>There was still time for <strong>Paschalakis<\/strong> to keep out Panetolikos&#8217; last-gasp attempt at another equalizer, with the big goalkeeper shutting out <strong>Karelis&#8217;<\/strong> effort in the 89th minute.<\/p>\n<p>That was the last goalmouth action as <strong>PAOK<\/strong> went on to celebrate their third consecutive away victory in all competitions, and the focus now turns to this weekend when <strong>PAOK<\/strong> returns to their base in <strong>Thessaloniki<\/strong> to face <strong>AEK<\/strong> on <strong>Sunday<\/strong> (26.09, 20:30) at the <strong>Toumba<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Team lineups:<\/p>\n<p>Panetolikos (Giannis Anastasiou): Rodriguez, Chouchoumis, Vrgoc, Lluy, Vergos, Diaz, Cornelius (85&#8242; Malis), Duarte (81&#8242; Barbosa), Flores (70&#8242; Varone), Morsay (46&#8242; Mendoras), Tsingaras (85&#8242; Karelis).<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK (Razvan Lucescu): Paschalakis, Taylor, Varela, Michailidis, Sidcley, Kurtic, Schwab (71&#8242; Esiti), Augusto, Murg (63&#8242; A.
