In a controversial match, Olympiakos leads AEK 1-0 at halftime. The goal was scored by the well-known striker Rondon, who delivered a beautiful right-footed shot into the far post of Brinelli's goal in the 40th minute.
The referee's decisions have been a point of contention for Olympiakos. The team has faced several offside calls, which they believe were wrongly implemented. In two instances, the Egyptian player El Kaaby was ruled offside, even though it seemed he was not interfering with play.
Olympiakos argues that the referee should have allowed the plays to develop and referred to VAR, but the referee has already issued two yellow cards to AEK players (Mukundu and Rota) in the first half.
Rondon, a Brazilian player, has scored four goals this season, all from offside positions. This goal has put Olympiakos in the lead, but the controversy surrounding the officiating continues to be a hot topic.

This game is a mess! How can Rondon score from offside positions? And those offside calls on Olimpiakos are ridiculous. What’s the ref thinking? This match is turning into a farce.
