Apollon and APOEL finish in a draw during Cyprus League matchday four
On September 19, 2026, the Cyprus League by Stoiximan match between Apollon Limassol and APOEL at the Alphamega Stadium concluded in a 2-2 draw. The match was part of the fourth matchday of the championship, with both teams looking to recover from previous poor performances. Apollon entered the game following a goalless draw against Omonia, while APOEL aimed to bounce back from a 2-1 defeat by Anorthosis.
Apollon manager Hernan Losada expressed disappointment with the result, noting that his team controlled the initial stages and ended the first half with a 2-1 lead. However, a defensive error in the second half allowed APOEL to equalize. The match featured a strong domestic presence, with seven Cypriot players in the starting lineups, including notable returns for APOEL players Stelios Vrontis and Stavros Georgiou, who started together for the first time since May 2021.
Following this result, both teams must regroup during the upcoming international break. Apollon continues to deal with a significant number of injuries, with several key players sidelined, forcing the manager to experiment with his lineup, including shifting Leonidas Konomis to a defensive midfield role.
