The Union won a significant victory against the equal of Hermes so far, which prevailed with 1-0 in “Tassos Markou” for the 23rd game of the championship.
The mediocre game that took place in Paralimni was judged by Panos' goal in the 20th minute, with the Frenchman scoring with a “thunderbolt” outside the area that left no room for reaction to Kaike.
Thanks to this three-pointer, Union… closed the bracket of defeats by Omonia and Doxa, returning to success and taking its fifth victory in 2021 (out of six in total), reaching 24 points and catching APOEL in 10th place in the standings.
The team of Aradippou remained for the fourth consecutive game without a win and with 21 points is in 12th place.
