Mentilibar’s team is stunned despite the many changes to the basic eleven
Olympiacos appeared impressive against AEK in the first semifinal of the Greek Cup, as despite the fact that Mendilibar changed the entire offensive line of his team, it defeated the Union 6-0, turning the rematch into OPAP Arena in a formal process.
The Basque technician of the “reds” began with Orta and Yaremtsuk instead of Kostoula and El Campi respectively, and both Portugallos and Ukrainian, justified him by scoring two goals and sharing an assist. The two, along with Palma, who played instead of Martins and scored a goal and distributed an assist, put pressure on AEK’s defense, which looked like a team with a … ghost of herself. The 6-0 was made by El Campi, who came in as a change instead of Yaremtsuk to Martins’ assists.
Only in the 9th minute Palma pinched the ball on the side of the slope from the left, pressed the area, passed the right time, and Orta with heel in front of Strakosa, opened the scoring with the ball finding Mukoundi and getting height. In the 19th Yaremtsuk was in a good position in the area but shot out and in the 20th Orta scored a second goal. Yaremtsuk pressed Mukoundi, stole the ball and went to the Portuguese who made it 2-0 in a vacuum. In the 22nd the roles were reversed, with Orta passing on the unmarked Yaremtsuk and Ukrainian performing 3-0.
With the start of the second half, Rodinei changed a great game for Palma, he lowered, closed in the AEK area and with the right one sent the ball to the left side of the net for 4-0. In the 53rd the pressure from Garcia, who stole the ball in yet another bad time in the Union’s defense, and Yaremtsuk made two goals and 5-0. The score ended in the 78th El Campi, with Rodinei changing quickly for Martins on the left, the Portuguese entered the opponent quickly and passed properly on the second beam for Moroccan for 6-0 with a nice place.
