I haven’t seen the stats but their passing accuracy and dominance was impressive… perhaps too perfectionist.

The Welsh did the only thing they could… defend for like 95% of the game.

Ok, no goals with 11 opponents parked in front of the goal post all night but I was pleased with APOEL’s technical expertise.

APOEL should do well this year… definitely Group Stage material.

No goals with 11 semi-professional players...not a good result.
Apoel will win the series yes, but i'm worried about next round.

I don’t know if this makes sense to you but I think APOEL will perform better against stronger teams that don’t park in front of the goal and open up.

APOEL themselves kept Real Madrid from scoring for 78 whole minutes using that very same technique so it’s not easy for anyone defeating a constant defensive wall.

It's too early to tell... IMO.

However, last year APOEL's manager proved he's a good coach. I'm almost sure they will play better in Nicosia. :wink:
