PAOK wins Greek Super League championship after dramatic final

·

PAOK defeated Aris 2-1 on Sunday at the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium in the most dramatic finale in the history of the Greek Super League.

According to Ekathimerini, PAOK played with 10 men for the last 17 minutes, in order to win their second league title in the last six seasons and the fourth championship in its history.

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.

PAOK will now enter the qualifiers of the UEFA Champions League.
