Marked for Mateo Marić

Squad

Luka Jović is carrying Omonoia

23 goals and a season average of 7.64. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Match

No mercy from Omonoia

Aris will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Omonoia were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Player ratings

Both of them Mihlali Mayambela's — 8.45

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.45, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Match

Omonoia make it 6 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Omonoia have 6 straight wins of it.

Squad

A falling-out at Omonoia

Florin Tănase and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Mateo Marić pulls a muscle — 14 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Luka Jović at his very best

Marked 8.56. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Omonoia.

Boardroom

Wages eat 135% of everything Omonoia earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad

A row about effort at Omonoia

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Igor Jeličić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Market

Mateusz Musiałowski agrees terms with Agia Napa

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Omonoia people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Market

Stefan Simić hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Omonoia can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Omonoia rebuffed over Marius Noubissi

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Pyunik have kept their man, and Omonoia go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Transfer targets

Lee Young-Jun will not be coming to Omonoia

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Grasshopper is saying, and nobody at Omonoia is enjoying the guessing.

Squad

Mihlali Mayambela 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 Omonoia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Senou Coulibaly was immovable

20 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Muamer Tanković

Successful dribbles: 19. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Luka Jović sends Omonoia past Aris

It finished 1‑0, and it was Luka Jović’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Omonoia.

Squad

200 appearances for Mateo Marić

200 games in these colours. Service of that kind gets rarer every season, and the crowd knows it.
