In a spectacular performance, AEK defeated Panserraikos in the third matchday of the League Phase of the Superbet Greek Cup, with “Enosis” prevailing by a resounding 8-1.
The standout player of the match was undoubtedly Petros Mandalos, who recorded four assists and scored a goal.
The captain of the “yellow-and-blacks,” speaking after the final whistle, emphasized that the team’s joy faded after Varga’s injury.
Here’s what Petros Mandalos had to say: “We played a good game; we fielded several players who haven’t had much playing time this season. We want to show that we’re ready. The opponent was a second-division team, but for us it was a game we wanted to win. The goal difference will matter; we put up a good score, but Barney’s injury ruined everything.
I’m so grateful to the fans. I’ve said it before. It’s a joy and an honor to hear my name chanted by them, but as for our performance—as I told you before—the injury ruined everything.”
