AEL has already shown the first signs of its potential this season, with three wins in four matches. Despite the crushing 0-6 loss to APOEL, the “blue-and-yellows” showed character and bounced back immediately, picking up two consecutive wins against Nea Salamina and Paphos.
The performance at “Stelios Kyriakides” Stadium showed a team that knows how to adapt. Without chasing possession, AEL remained compact, closed down spaces, and struck effectively on the counterattack, with Mougé and Singh making the difference.
The key now is consistency. AEL has shown that it has quality and can adapt its style of play depending on the opponent. If it manages to maintain this consistency, then its strong start could lay the foundation for a very interesting season.
