Although Olympiacos were the stronger side in their Matchday 1 fixture of the League Phase, they could not secure all three points in their group opener, as the match ended 0–0.
The “red-and-whites” created several good chances, especially in the second half, but were unable to convert any into a goal. It should be noted that the visitors were reduced to ten men in the 26th minute after Bruno was shown a second yellow card.
