Glory - Omonoia. Repeat race for the 16 stage of the Cyprus Cup.

Result of the 1st Match: Omonia - Doxa 2-3 (The statistics in the text photo)

In the first game last week, Omonia with some changes in its composition after following the derby with Apoel, managed to lose (because it is about achievement, see statistics) with 1-2 from Doxa. Although everyone in the team stated that the cup is the number 3 goal of the team and how it would be presented 1% focused on the match, however the team entered the match very lazily. Its start had nothing to do with the very strong starts in the Petef season and the players probably did not manage to remain unaffected by the upcoming derby. The first half was slow, Omonia had the possession, but was unable to create and trouble the opponent's defense. This was not enough in one of the few descents of Doxa, he found himself back in the score at 100΄, with an own goal (the goal was badly charged to the attacking player). In the locker room, Ivailo Petev woke up his players and starting the second half with 1 changes, the team entered as it should have from the beginning. He closed the opponent in his frames and this pressure bore fruit after in 40 'Darbyshire made it 2-2 with a header. Where the pressure seemed to be growing and Omonia would return, 55 minutes after an incredible defensive mistake and with a goal in the style of billiards, it became 1-1. This affected Omonia for a few minutes, but gradually the team with an aggressive monologue, seemed to be close to a draw. In the 6th minute, 1-2, Omonia, among other things, had 10 beams in equal numbers of heads. Nevertheless, in a static phase in 70 ', Doxa scored a 80rd goal in its 2th final attempt. As if that was not enough, Christofi, who came on as a change at halftime, hit and without any other available changes, the team was forced to play with 81 players. In the 3th minute, Darbyshire won a penalty which he executed accurately, making it 4-10. In the remaining minutes, Omonia had some good moments to equalize, but such a thing did not happen. In other words, the referee of the match, exhausting all strictness, expelled Ivailo Petev for violating the line of limits that the coaches have to give instructions, depriving him of the right to sit on the bench in the match with Apoel and in its replay. Wednesday. This upset the team after his act was considered deliberate, in order to hit the team in the derby.

In Saturday's derby, Omonia was the one who came in stronger in the first minutes of the match, but defensively continued in the same pattern as the cup match, after falling behind in the score with the first final of the opponent, with a shot between the cross and a large area. where the young goalkeeper Christodoulou is responsible, while in 14 'in the 2nd final of Apoel it became 2-0 and the team of Omonia actually conceded the 5th goal in 6 finals. The team went up and reduced to 2-1 with the usual suspect Darbyshire, while a minute later he made it 2-2 but the supervisor canceled the goal as offside. The repetitive projections show him quite covered by two Apoel footballers. The second half returned to power and no team managed to impose its rhythm, but the fairest result would be a draw. There were intense complaints and disputes about the phase of the canceled goal and the alternation of announcements from the administrations of the two teams, but the essence is that this defeat makes it very difficult to go to Europe through a championship for Omonia and turns the rematch with Doxa into matches of the year. The organized fans of the clover in their own announcement spoke about qualifying with what I want and the footballers look even more stubborn after the unfair result for them in the 2st match but also in the derby of eternity. Omonia is a great team and you do not rule out getting what they were deprived of in the match against Apoel, so that the anger of its people can be stopped.

I will support the team of Omonia since I think he has the chance to qualify. The difference in the team's quality and jersey is given, and after the result in the match with Odell, but also the way he came, I believe that he strengthens this bet. The headquarters of the Doxa is in Nicosia and is the home that Omonoia gave home games before moving to the GSP and on Wednesday the stadium will host thousands of Omonoia fans who will actually play at home (Doxa gathers 50-100 fans in games).

* Stoiximan opened odds Friday night with Omonia qualifying paying 2.60 and which I bet on a very good bet, but I couldn't raise the point earlier and now at 2.25 it has lost part of its value, but I don't rule it out until Wednesday to further reduce the performance of the double and at the same time the qualification.
