In the 20th minute, <strong>Andrija Zivkovic&#8217;s<\/strong> shot did not find the net either, while in the 36th minute <strong>Otto<\/strong> also sent the ball wide from a good position.<\/p>\n<p>In the 41st minute, <strong>Baba<\/strong> found the net with a great shot, but the referees discovered a foul by <strong>Otto<\/strong> at the start of that phase of play and chalked off the &#8216;goal&#8217;. Finally, however, the opening goal came in the fourth minute of added time when, after a cross by <strong>Zivkovic<\/strong>, <strong>Cleary<\/strong> sent the ball into his own net.<\/p>\n<p>The second half began in ideal fashion for <strong>Razvan Lucescu&#8217;s<\/strong> team. <strong>Tason<\/strong> made it 2-0 just two minutes in with a powerful shot. The <strong>Brazilian<\/strong> then missed a great opportunity to make it 3-0 two minutes later, after a pass from <strong>Konstantelias<\/strong>, while in the 52nd minute the visitors were reduced to 10 men when <strong>Joshua Honohan<\/strong> found <strong>Schwab<\/strong> with his elbow and received a second yellow card followed by his marching orders.<\/p>\n<p>In the 62nd minute <strong>Zivkovic<\/strong> had another effort off target, only for <strong>Konstantelias<\/strong> to then come in the 67th to provide a flawless side-footed finish inside the penalty area and make it 3-0. In the 76th minute, <strong>Schwab<\/strong> had a header off target as a fourth goal looked likely.<\/p>\n<p>And indeed it came in added time. After <strong>Chalov<\/strong> had missed a penalty won by <strong>Despodov <\/strong>moments earlier, the <strong>Russian<\/strong> striker again found himself in front of <strong>Shamrock<\/strong> &#8216;keeper <strong>Pohls<\/strong>, and he again denied the <strong>PAOK<\/strong> man only for <strong>Baba<\/strong> to follow up and score from the rebound to make it 4-0.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PAOK<\/strong>, on \u200b\u200ban emotionally charged evening which saw the fans bid farewell to <strong>Konstantinos Koulierakis <\/strong>in his final home game before his move to <strong>Wolfsburg<\/strong>, did their duty and now have a significant lead to defend in Ireland for the second leg net week.
