Alen Ozbolt faces criticism following Apollon's defeat against Olympiacos
On November 10, 2026, Apollon suffered a 1-0 defeat against Olympiacos at the GSP Stadium. A central point of discussion following the match was the performance of the 30-year-old Slovenian striker, Alen Ozbolt, who failed to capitalize on several significant scoring opportunities throughout the game.
Specifically, Ozbolt struggled to convert key chances during the second half. In the 81st minute, his attempt hit the post, and in the 87th minute, he failed to execute another promising opportunity. Despite these misses, the club maintains its trust in the forward, noting that he is currently recovering from recent injuries that have limited his match fitness this season. Prior to this match, Ozbolt had been a key contributor for the team, scoring against Anorthosis, Nea Salamina, and Karmiotissa.
While his recent performance was disappointing, club officials emphasize his importance to the squad's offensive strategy. Moving forward, the team looks to integrate him back to full strength as they navigate the remainder of the season.
