THE Olympic with his epic 4-2 win in England over Aston Villa in his first semi-final Conference League is just 90 minutes away from his first participation in a European final.
But to get this far in Europe, he needed a regular coach (Medilibar), many “heroes”, frequent crossings and exploits and above all an MVP. His successor Youssef El Arabi, his fellow Moroccan, Ayub El Kaabi, who had a party at “Villa Park”, with the impressive hat trick he achieved and already reached eight goals in the Conference League. Three goals that put him in first place among the competition’s scorers, together with Zahavi of Maccabi, who, however, does not continue in Europe after being eliminated by… Olympiakos!
El Kaabi has scored in total this year in Europe 13 goals after he had scored five more goals in Europa League.
The 31-year-old Moroccan center forward at 17 European games this year of the “red whites” found nets:
Two goals in the 3-1 second leg against Čukaritzki in the Europa League play-offs.
*Two goals in a 2-3 loss to Freiburg in the Europa League group stage opener.
A goal (the first) against Backa Topola (5-2) in the Europa League group final.
He scored in both games against Ferentsvaros in the round of 32 of the Conference League, giving the “red and whites” as many victories as 1-0.
In the round of 16, he scored Olympiakos’ only goal in a 1-4 away defeat by Maccabi and scored two more in their epic 1-6 comeback win in Serbia.
*In the first semi-final, El Kaabi scored a hat-trick against Aston Villa, taking his tally to eight goals in the competition. And he has one or two more games..
