AEK 0-0 Panserraikos

0
Well, not much can be said about today's result. A 0-0 draw at home for AEK against recently promoted Panserraikos was all AEK was able to get away with from this match. Although AEK had many chances throughout the match none managed to get into the net and the performance overall by the home team [. Click to continue reading...

Thrasyvoulos’s Three Goals

0
AEK's three first half goals did not go unanswered for long.  It took just 31 minutes of the second half for Thrasyvoulos to pull even.  Yes, it is almost unimaginable that a team of AEK's supposed caliber would concede three goals in half an hour to a team holding onto the bottom of the table [...

The First Three Goals

0
In his post-match review yesterday, Alex correctly pointed out that AEK's halftime lead of 0-3 did not accurately reflect how the game was being played.  AEK seemed to be trying to play a possession-style passing game, but our possession was short-lived, our passing inconsistent, our runs off the ball half-hearted or non-existent.

The Nightmare Continues…. Brief Match Review

2
The unconvincing performances under the leadership of Giorgos Donis, which started from this summer when AEK played Omonia, have continued to be displayed by the team.

Donis on the Iraklis Match

0
Donis says we played well for just 20 minutes (true), that a quick reflex save from Saja saved us from a late equalizer (also, true) and the gaffer treats us to more of his musings on formations...read it all here. And for those that missed the game Sunday, here is a clip of Scocco's 14th minute [... Click to continue reading...

We lined up like this: Blanco Edinho -Scocco Rikka Pilatsikas Basinas Juanfran -Ramos-Silva Krygiakos Majstorovisc Saja Lagos went in for Edinho in the 65th, Kafes went in for Pilatsikas in the 87th, and Alexopolous went in for Scocco in the 90th. Donis knows what he is doing. The 4-3-3 worked well for us. Click to continue reading...

My apologies. The news has really started to pile up. AEK destroyed Turkish-side Ancaragucu on Sunday in Austria. Click to continue reading...
