Olympiacos left Asteras Tripolis with a 1-0 win in the Super League, the goal coming just past the half-hour mark. The match was tight, with both sides sharing 50% possession, but Olympiacos carried the greater attacking threat.
Jota Silva scored the only goal of the game in the 31st minute, turning in Manolis Saliakas' assist to put the visitors ahead. Asteras pushed for an equaliser but could not break Olympiacos down, and the contest grew increasingly scrappy, with seven yellow cards shown across the 90 minutes.
Olympiacos had 14 shots to Asteras' 10 and seven on target to three, with five big chances compared to the home side's two. But the Asteras goalkeeper was busy, making six saves, and the 1-0 margin reflects a game that was competitive without ever being one-sided.
