Omonia showed once again that it stands strong in tough times. Instead of backing down, they get stronger. After a grueling 130-minute Cup match and missing a big goal, the ‘greens’ bounced back impressively. They won at ‘Stelios Kyriakides’, beat last year’s champion, and sent a clear message: this team is definitely aiming for the CHAMPIONSHIP.
Willy Semedo delivered an amazing performance, while Ryan Mmaee kept his scoring streak alive in 2026. Omonia triumphed at one of the toughest venues in the championship. The conclusion is clear: May can be painted green.
Henning Berg made smart changes from the Cup game against AEL, bringing back key players. His choices were crucial as the team showed teamwork, discipline, and a clear style of play.
The game kicked off with a surprise when Pafos FC scored early. But Omonia responded right away. Mmaee calmly equalized, and from then on, Omonia took charge and set the pace.
In the second half, a small mistake nearly cost them but served as a wake-up call. Semedo stepped up, turned the game around, answered Pafos’ equalizer, and sealed the win with a penalty kick, completing his first career hat-trick.
The final score of 2-4 truly reflected how the game went and confirmed a well-deserved victory. Everyone who played gave their all in spirit and skill, earning three crucial points in the title race.
With no time to relax, focus now shifts to the game against ENP. Omonia needs to stay on track and keep pushing toward the top.
