A lack of flow, fatigue, and defensive mistakes led Omonia to its first loss of the season.
These were the reasons why the “Greens” failed to play up to their usual standard and went winless for a third consecutive match (against Olympiacos and Benfica). They faced a formidable Paleari and missed at least four clear-cut scoring opportunities, ultimately failing to score a single goal.
The “clover,” showed weaknesses in its defensive line, with the decision to use Viktoros on the right side of the defense—following the forced substitution of Nego—ultimately failing to stop Henning Berg.
A third and perhaps more fundamental cause in general lately has been the lack of freshness; It is clear that players who have not performed as expected so far—such as Akintola, Tanase, Mayabela, and Brewers—need to step up.
