Apollon secures victory against Karmiotissa in Cyprus League
Apollon Limassol faced Karmiotissa on October 25, 2026, at the Stelios Kyriakides stadium for the seventh matchday of the Cyprus League by Stoiximan. Entering the game with 12 points and a two-match winning streak, Apollon aimed to maintain their undefeated status and close the gap on league leaders AEL. Manager Hernan Losada navigated significant roster challenges, with players like Assuncao suspended due to yellow card accumulation, and others, including Gary Rodrigues, recovering from recent injuries.
Despite the personnel concerns, Apollon dominated the match early. Thomas opened the scoring in the 8th minute, followed by a second goal from Ozbolt in the 29th minute. The game saw a setback when Gary Rodrigues, who had just returned from a calf injury, felt discomfort in the 19th minute and was replaced by Asoro. Apollon entered the match with a lineup featuring Koun in goal, supported by defenders and midfielders including Brown, Malekkidis, and Kvida. Karmiotissa, currently at the bottom of the table, struggled to contain Apollon's offensive efforts. The result allows Apollon to maintain their positive momentum as they look forward to their upcoming demanding fixtures against Pafos FC on October 31.
