PAOK crushes Levadiakos 4-0, sets sights on Bran

PAOK secured a commanding 4-0 victory over Levadiakos, showcasing a strong performance that saw them dominate the match. The team's initiative was evident from the start, as they sought to create chances through the center and flanks. However, initial struggles in combining play meant few clear opportunities arose.

Despite a slow start, PAOK found their breakthrough in the 36th minute. Zivkovic delivered a precise cross to Soutar, who executed a skillful overhead kick to put PAOK ahead 1-0. The momentum shifted, and five minutes later, Mihailidis won the ball in midfield, setting up Zivkovic. Zivkovic then found Pella, who calmly slotted the ball into the net for a 2-0 lead by halftime.

The second half saw Levadiakos make substitutions to bolster their attack, but PAOK maintained control. The home side exhibited better ball movement and possession, though they didn't create many immediate scoring opportunities. Substitutions for both teams occurred, with PAOK bringing on Mythou and Taylor, and Levadiakos introducing Guma and Ozegovic.

The match was effectively sealed in the 72nd minute when the young striker Mythou intercepted the ball in midfield, embarked on a solo run, and scored with a diagonal shot to make it 3-0. The scoring was completed in the 88th minute when Mythou earned a penalty after being fouled in the box. Zivkovic stepped up and converted the spot-kick, finalizing the 4-0 scoreline.
