From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Octavio Bianchi wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Pafos know it.

Squad

Tempers go at Pafos

Lelê was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Realdo Fili falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

Anderson says Pafos went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Player ratings

Domingos Quina runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Rubert Quijada in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Pafos this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Pafos training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Realdo Fili is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Derrick Luckassen gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

Dani Silva stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.14 on the card, and the Pafos support went home talking about one name.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Lelê

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Tempers go at Pafos

Rubert Quijada was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

Pafos see off Paralimni

Three points for Pafos, 1‑0 the final word against Paralimni in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Realdo Fili falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Mons Bassouamina gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

Anderson was the difference for Pafos

Marked 7.77. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.
