PAOK took a first-half lead with Brandon Thomas, Aris equalised at the start of the second home with a superb Loren Moron strike. PAOK midfielder Taison scored the goal that won his team the title half an hour before the final whistle.

AEK was waiting in the wings if PAOK dropped points at Aris in order to celebrate the title, but its 3-0 home win over Lamia was to no avail.
