The <strong>Toumba<\/strong> crowd gave the team the necessary boost, <strong>Lucescu&#8217;s<\/strong> players looked in more determined mood and came out full of passion and energy. After <strong>A.Zivkovic<\/strong> and <strong>Konstantelias<\/strong> comebined well before the <strong>Serb<\/strong> was denied by <strong>Lodygin<\/strong> in the 52nd minute. But, within seven minutes <strong>PAOK<\/strong> were ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> pressed high up the pitch, and <strong>Vagiannidis<\/strong> made a mistake with a poor backpass, and that allowed <strong>Brandon<\/strong> to steal the ball and race clear. And the <strong>Spaniard<\/strong> made no mistake when one-on-one with the &#8216;keeper with a flawless side-footed finish to make it 1-0 and set the <strong>Toumba&#8230;<\/strong> on fire.<\/p>\n<p>With the psychological advantage of the goal, <strong>PAOK<\/strong> pressed forward more and looked for a second goal. <strong>Lucescu<\/strong> threw <strong>Taison<\/strong> and <strong>Oliveira<\/strong> into the fray and it was those two who combined to make it 2-0 to the rampant hosts.<\/p>\n<p>In the 72nd minute, the <strong>Portuguese<\/strong> produced an excellent assist for the <strong>Brazilian,<\/strong> and he found the back of the net with a clinical finish, just three minutes after coming on in a dream debut.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Panathinaikos<\/strong> then went on the attack to try and find a goal that would put them back in the game, but <strong>PAOK<\/strong> managed to control proceedings and hold firm, not allowing the visitors a route towards <strong>Kotarski&#8217;s<\/strong> goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong> then, earned a significant qualification lead and both teams will renew hostilities in the league this <strong>Sunday<\/strong> at &laquo;<strong>Leoforos&raquo;<\/strong>, in the second of the trilogy of successive games that these two opponents play in a row against each other.<\/p>\n<p>Team lineups:<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK: Kotarski, Sastre, Rafa Soares (78&#8242; Vieirinha), Ingason, Koulierakis, Augusto (69&#8242; Schwab), Dantas, A.Zivkovic, Narey (69&#8242; Taison), Konstantelias (84&#8242; Biseswar), Brandon (69&#8242; Oliveira).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Panathinaikos (I.
