Athens Kallithea FC — Asteras Tripolis II: 2:0, Super League 2

Kallithea secured a 2-0 victory over Asteras Tripolis II in the fourth round of the Super League 2 regular season on Monday. The result keeps hosts fourth in the table while visitors drop further behind at thirteenth.

And here's the thing — the opener came at the fifty-second minute when T. Tsirigotis found the net. The hosts had been probing, keeping knocking on the door with nine corners and 103 attacks. Asteras Tripolis II defended deep, but the high line was eventually picked apart.

J. Romo added a second at the eighty-third minute to settle things. The visitors had one red card to account for, and their defensive shape began to crumble after that.

Kallithea registered two shots on target from seven attempts, while Asteras Tripolis II managed none on target from six efforts. Possession was evenly split at 49 percent versus 51, but shots accuracy told a different story — 17 percent compared to zero. Three yellow cards each and one red for hosts showed the temperature rising. The hosts kept knocking on the door but could only convert twice.

Nine points from four games puts Kallithea in contention for promotion places. Asteras Tripolis II sit on just three points after one win and three defeats, a run that ended with this defeat. To be fair, the visitors had shown resilience in previous outings, but consistency remains a question.
