The 53 minutes he played against Anorthosis were enough for Akintola to prove just how talented and influential a player he is for Omonia.
The Nigerian has what… is currently missing from Montnor: substance and effectiveness in his play.
First, he set up the goal for Dionis, then scored the second and essentially “sealed” the away win at a stadium where few teams manage to come away with a victory.
The 30-year-old winger has been hampered by a muscle injury and is still not at 100% fitness. Even so, he managed to make a significant impact for the “Greens.”
So the break came at just the right time for Akintola, allowing him to work on his fitness and be even better prepared for the “eternal” derby against APOEL when the season resumes (Nov. 21, 5:00 p.m.).
