PAOK U20s didn’t allow their rivals any room for reaction. They took the lead in the 17th minute through Lyratzis on an assist by Gargalatzidis and their self-confidence did the rest. Markovski had a good opportunity to score, Kozak was denied by the woodwork, before Gargalatzidis made it 2-0 in the 24th minute, set up by Markovski.

The “Double-Headed Eagle” were in control after the interval as well. In the 55th minute, Gargalatzidis combined impeccably with Balogiannis before making it 3-0. Markovski added his name on the scorers’ sheet in the 62nd minute, teed up by Tsaousis. Papadopoulos came close to a fifth goal in the 80th minute…
