Omonia’s use of set pieces is now a key factor in their league success. It’s not just luck anymore; it’s a solid advantage that brings results.
The team has scored from free kicks or corners in six straight matches. This shows that set pieces come from hard work and good planning. The streak started against Omonia Aradippou, when Hamas took a free kick from the right, and Angelos Neophytou was there to score.
Next, in the match against Olympiakos, they won 0-3 thanks to a corner from Tankovic and a goal by Semedo. At the ‘Arena’ against AEK, Tankovic took another corner, Jovetic assisted at the far post, and Masouras finished it off perfectly.
Against Ethnikos, Nikola Panayiotou scored from a corner. Then, against Akritas, they showed great teamwork: Tankovic crossed, Masouras headed it at the near post, and Nikola made the finish. Finally, in the match with AEL, they scored 0-1 from a Tankovic free kick and Jovetic’s goal.
The quality of execution, smart movement in the area, and great understanding of plays show how important this is. In tight matches, set pieces have become a crucial ‘weapon’ for Omonia’s success.
