With Panathinaikos’ soul, passion, dynamism and efficiency, the Greens dominated the derby and celebrated a great victory with a 2-0 win over Olympiacos.
After two amazing teamwork with a tremendous passing game, Bernard paved the way to the triumph at 25′, Jeremejeff sealed the three-point win at 60′ and Panathinaikos – after the great qualification in the penalty shootout for the Cup – smiled again against the Piraeus team.
