Among other things, the position of goalkeeper is played in Anorthosis, in view of the big match on Tuesday (26/4, 19:00) with Omonia at “Antonis Papadopoulos” for the semifinals of the cup.
And this is because Assaf Jour was key in all three games of the institution in which he was available (the first with Paphos and the two quarterfinals with APOEL) and therefore it is considered possible Timur Ketspaia to bring him back under the goalposts, establishing him as & # 8230; cup goalkeeper.
It is a common practice in many teams for one goalkeeper to be considered a key player in the league and another in the cup.
However, Jour's presence in Tuesday's game should to be taken for granted. The Israeli went last year to become & # 8230; cup goalkeeper, playing key in both quarterfinals with Karmiotissa, but where the thing & # 8230; serious, that is, in the semifinals with APOEL and the final with Olympiakos, Ketspaia chose the clearly more experienced Loria.
The above, however, does not mean that The Georgian coach does not trust the 23-year-old in the “forced” matches. Suffice it to say that in the Conference League, Jour played a key role in five of the group's six games, with Loria only playing in the premiere against Partizan. And the Israeli had, for the most part, outstanding performances.
As it turns out, it's hard to predict which of Loria and Jour will get a basic jersey in the first semifinal with the clover.
