AEL suffered from Alexander.
Aris continues to fight for the lead in the Cyprus Championship. This time AEL suffered (4-0). Of the three goals in the derby, Alexander Kokorina scored a double. These are the Russian striker’s first goals in national tournaments after his recovery. Before, the forward distinguished himself in the Europa League (against Betis).
It must be said that AEL is in the middle of the table and was not considered the favorite for the next match, despite playing at home. Expectations coincided with reality in the 39th minute of the match, when Kokorin opened the scoring of the match. Alexander, along with his teammate, performed a subtle combination of a small pass, essentially starting near the box and ending it almost in the goalkeeper’s box. Tiki-taka from Cyprus!
Before the break, Mihlali Mayambela doubled the guests’ advantage and AEL itself buried the chances of returning the intrigue. Almost immediately after the second goal conceded, former Lokomotiv player Ezekiel Henty received a straight red card.
After the break everything became really difficult: AEL quickly ran out of steam, the team committed a lot of fouls. Aris, for its part, continued to dominate and in the 66th minute Kokorin scored a double. This time, the Russian and his teammate faced each other two against one, opened up for a pass and beat the goalkeeper. The forward never had problems with technology. He played it wonderfully.
Well, Veljko Nikolic completed the shot in the 88th minute. 4:0 – “Aris” scored 29 points in the Cypriot championship and came first in the table, but the same result was obtained by APOEL and “Paphos”, who are inferior to the team from Kokorin only in terms of additional indicators.
