Olympiakos defeated Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final, and Ayoub El Kaabi’s goal four minutes from the end of extra time made history by making Olympiakos the first Greek team to win a European championship.
At the AEK Arena in Athens, the Moroccan striker, who was instrumental in Olympiakos’ journey to the championship, bent low to head in Santiago Hezze’s cross and create a riot.
El Kaabi’s 11th goal of the match and their place in Greek football history were validated by a protracted video assistance referee check.
Fiorentina has experienced dramatic grief for the second year running after losing to West Ham in the championship game due to a late goal by Jarrod Bowen.
