Part 1

The big game started with both teams trying to impose their tempo. Paphos had possession of the ball but APOEL was more threatening in the first half.

In the 21st minute, Marquinios took the shot without particularly threatening Ivusic who collected the ball. The “blue and yellow” in the 33rd minute had the best moment in the first half. Dalsio with a nice cross found Kvilitaia but Goldar caught up to him and put his foot to the corner.

Paphos, which failed to become particularly threatening, tried in the 43rd minute with Zairo making the shot. but it was completely weak causing Belets not to worry.

In the last minute of stoppage time, the team of Sa Pinto threatened again with a shot by Marquinios but Ivousis saved in a corner.

So the two teams went to the dressing room with the score at 0-0.< /p>

The “blue and yellow” almost scored a second goal in the 60th minute. Dalsio made a nice individual effort and then the shot, but unfortunately the ball hit the crossbar of Ivusic.
