In the Greek championship on Sunday, Panathinaikos and PAOK faced off, with the black-and-white team from Thessaloniki silencing the loud home fans. PAOK won the tense and thrilling match 3-2, and out of the three Slovenians in the green-and-white team, only two played. Benjamin Verbič was on the bench, Adam Gnezda Čerin was substituted out in the 79th minute, and Andraž Šporar was already off at halftime.
However, Fatih Terim, the Turkish giant at the helm of Panathinaikos, did not substitute the forward from Ljubljana due to tactical reasons or his potential poor performance. Andraž Šporar suffered a head injury during the match, which required him to go to the hospital for examination. Fortunately, there was nothing serious, as the national team striker only suffered a mild concussion. He also had to receive a few stitches for a wound caused by a collision with one of the home players.
With the defeat, Panathinaikos significantly worsened its chances for the championship title, which they have been waiting for since 2010. The club of the three Slovenians is currently third in the championship league standings, trailing the leader AEK by six points, who were the champions last year. PAOK is second, with a four-point lead over Panathinaikos. The giant Olympiakos is in fourth place, one point behind Panathinaikos.
