Amid an electric atmosphere created by their fans at a packed <strong>Toumba<\/strong>, the <strong>Double-headed Eagle<\/strong> completely dominated <strong>Aris<\/strong> and secured an important three points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> came out in determined mood, with a clear desire to take control of possession and managed to do so from the first minutes. In the first 10 minutes, the strong one-on-one duels taking place all over the pitch did not allow much quality football to be played, but then the home side increased the tempo and penned <strong>Aris<\/strong> back in their own half. The visitors&#8217; chief concern was to keep <strong>PAOK<\/strong> away from <strong>Cuesta&#8217;s<\/strong> goal, and try to create a threat on the counter-attack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> threatened first with <strong>Ingason<\/strong>, and moments after the <strong>Icelander&#8217;s<\/strong> effort, <strong>Bognar<\/strong> awarded a penalty after some <strong>VAR<\/strong> assistance, for <strong>Iturbe&#8217;s<\/strong> handball in the box. <strong>Schwab<\/strong> took the spot-kick, but <strong>Cuesta<\/strong> parried the <strong>Austrian&#8217;s<\/strong> effort onto the crossbar and the ball bounced to safety.<\/p>\n<p>In the 29th minute, both teams missed good chances with <strong>Oliveira<\/strong> initially unable to beat <strong>Cuesta<\/strong>, while <strong>Iturbe<\/strong> then missed the chance to put <strong>Aris<\/strong> ahead.<\/p>\n<p>In the 32nd nminute, <strong>Koulierakis<\/strong> rose for a header from a good position, but the ball went just past the post. While two minutes later, <strong>Narey<\/strong> recevied the ball from <strong>Konstantelias<\/strong> and fired in a shot, but his effort struck the post as the home side were again denied an opening goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Narey<\/strong> and <strong>Oliveira<\/strong> threatened again in the first minute of added time at the end of the first half, and it provied the decisive moment for <strong>PAOK<\/strong> to take the lead. After a corner, <strong>Koulierakis<\/strong> nodded the ball on and <strong>Ingason<\/strong> was there to make it 1-0 with an impressive scissor-kick.<\/p>\n<p>In the second half the pace of the match dropped considerably, and the two teams did not give much away, meaning that chances were at a premium at both ends. Still, there were a couple of opportunities for each sie, with <strong>Iturbe<\/strong> for <strong>Aris<\/strong> and <strong>A.Zivkovic<\/strong> for the home side both failing ot find the target.<\/p>\n<p>In the 70th minute, <strong>PAOK<\/strong> missed a great opportunity to make it 2-0 with <strong>Douglas Augusto<\/strong> firing in an excellent shot that was saved brilliantly by <strong>Cuesta<\/strong>. The rest of the match was mainly about game management, with <strong>Aris<\/strong> not managing to threaten the black and white defense at any point, and <strong>Razvan Lucescu&#8217;s<\/strong> team holding their own to secure the 1-0 win and collect the three points.<\/p>\n<p>Team lineups:<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK: Kotarski, Sastre, Ingason, Koulierakis, Rafa Soares, Schwab, Augusto, Narey (76&#8242; Biseswar), Konstantelias (82&#8242; Filipe Soares), A.
