Greek tragedy for Slovenian forward: Andraž Šporar returned from injury and played 98. missed the 11th minute eleven-meter penalty to win the game (VIDEO)
In the Greek championship, the battle for the title is so evenly matched that it could hardly be more so. Only six points separate the four clubs at the top of the standings: first is AEK, second is
Panathinaikos
(both with 63 points), Olympiakos is third with 60 points and PAOK is fourth with 57 points. Last weekend, three of these clubs sinned: PAOK lost to AEK without Jasmin Kurtic, Olympiakos only drew with Aris and Panathinaikos missed a great chance to win against Volos. Eight-man of the match? Andraž Šporar.
The Ljubljana player is back on the court after an injury that forced him to miss both of Slovenia’s national team matches. He started Sunday’s game on the bench(Adam Gnezda Cerin was the only one of the three Slovenians in the starting 11), and came on in the 66. minutes. Deep into stoppage time, 98 to be precise. In the final minute, he then had the perfect chance to give Panathiniakos the win. The home team got an 11th-minute penalty, Andraž Šporar put the ball in the white spot and… missed!
Andraž Šporar shot into the goalkeeper’s right corner, but his shot was not the best and the visiting goalkeeper Boris Kleyman, an Israeli national team player, stopped his attempt with – it has to be admitted – a great reaction. It ended 0:0, and Panathinaikos lost the top spot in the standings. AEK is now in the lead, but the two clubs are tied on points.
