Pelkas was rather tame. He did make a good run forward finding space inside the box, as did Akpom, but Jaba was selfish and wasted the chance completely. Pelkas' only other highlight moment was from a direct set-piece, but he couldn't get the shot down and Onana had the corner covered even if he had got onto the net. On the goal Leonardo scored, Pelkas made a great run into the back post. Clearly he was there to put the ball away, but Leonardo' header got the job done just the same. It was a well crafted set-piece.
Ajax was too good. The only PAOK player who could really create problems for Ajax was Akpom. His physical strength and ability on the ball made a difference. Giannoulis actually scored an own goal--Ziyech didn't score. But Giannoulis redeemed himself with an assist for Akpom's goal.
