Aris – OFI 1-1: Goals from Gray and Toral balanced “Vikelidis”.

The big fight that took place on Sunday evening (October 30th) in Kleanthis Vikelidis for the 10th match day of the Super League had a goal in the second half, a crossbar, great chances, an insane pace and emotional changes – there was no winner .

Both Aris and OFI searchedIf with passion the three points to give themselves a boost for the rest of the season, but in the end they were 1-1, a result that made the Yellows unhappy, who have more (18) and cleaner endgames (1.3 x goals) and significantly happier with the Cretans (4 finals, 0.2 x goals) on the bench for Dabrauskas’ debut.

In the first part at “Kleanthis Vikelidis” the two teams neutralized each other… resulting in few notable phases ahead of the two home teams. Aris ended the 45th minute with 4 finals but without forcing Mandas to undergo surgery while OFI had only 2 finals, 1 of which was at home.

The only time OFI came close to scoring was in the 14th minute after Perea’s cross and Guerrero’s superb header that forced Cuesta into his corner to save, with Aris for his part playing mostly from the wings (many climbs from the active Odubajo and Piersman). ) from the moment the shank fell on the pretty good Diamantis-Vouros.

Their best player of that time, Mateo Garcia, scored in the 20th minute with a great curling shot with his left foot from inside the penalty area, which ended on the crossbar, in the 36th minute the same player found the net, was but suspended in goal 44′ Gray received a vertical pass from Odubajo and caught the outgoing Manda but sent the ball wide with his placekick.

Dream goal by Gray in response to Toral

The picture was completely different in the second half, where the pace was much faster and the players of both teams provided an exciting spectacle with two great goals within seven minutes.

In the 49th minute, OFI opened the scoring, with Dabrauskas’ players “building up” an attack from behind and the ball, after a spin by Larsson, reached Aris’ large area, where Guerrero Toral “served” and he made the 0 -1 with an elusive lob shot.

Within minutes, Aris began laying siege to the homeland of the Cretans, with Gray not having time for Odubatzo’s shot in the 55th minute, but “painting” a minute later, catching an unreal “scissors” behind the penalty kick, from which he took a statue left Mandas (1-1).

Those two goals ‘lit’ the stands but at the same time warmed up both sides, with Aris and OFI heating up the heat and both making final efforts in their quest for the coveted second goal.

However, in the last 20 minutes, Aris found himself in the lead as he created the big chances. In 71′ Gray missed the diagonal shot he attempted in the penalty area, in 85′ Mandas Mancini’s shot stopped, while in 88′ Camazzo missed a huge chance to return, sending the ball wide with goalkeeper OFI in a unique foursome.
