Aris Limassol, spearheaded by Mamadou Sané, secured a crucial victory against AEZ Zakakiou with a solitary goal from Yannick Gomis during their Friday night clash (1-0).

Having faced setbacks in their recent Championship outings against AEK Larnaca and Doxa Katokopias, Aris Limassol entered the encounter with AEZ Zakakiou with a determined spirit to reclaim their winning form.

The Light Brigade emerged triumphant with a 1-0 victory at the Alphamega Stadium, propelling them to the third spot in the Cypriot D1 standings.

Aleksey Shpilevski’s squad exhibited clear dominance throughout the match, and their ambitions materialized in the 42nd minute when Yannick Gomis found the net with a powerful header.

The 31-year-old Senegalese striker, who had faced a goal drought since November 4, delivered a pivotal performance, securing his eleventh Total Cypriot Championship (TCC) goal of the season.

Gomis, who had inadvertently scored an own goal in the previous match, showcased his resilience and goal-scoring prowess.

The precision of his header reflected not only a personal triumph but also significantly contributed to Aris Limassol’s ascent in the league rankings.

The strategic acumen of Mamadou Sané, a key figure for Aris Limassol, played a crucial role in controlling the game and securing the vital three points.

The team’s seamless coordination and disciplined approach under Shpilevski’s management underscored their determination to overcome recent challenges and emerge victorious.

With this triumph, Aris Limassol positions themselves favorably in the competitive landscape of D1 Cyprus, showcasing their resilience and ability to navigate the intricacies of high-stakes encounters.

As the season progresses, football enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the continued exploits of Aris Limassol in their pursuit of excellence on the Cypriot football stage.
