Egnatia continues its perfect march in the Superiore. Three matches, three wins and the sole leader of the standings. But more than points, the champions are showing that they know how to win even when the match does not go according to plan. Against Skënderbeu, from a missed penalty to an advantage, a draw and then Loukili's decisive goal. Another test of character for Nevil Dede's team. 2-1 against Skënderbeu and 9 points in three weeks. Egnatia overturns a difficult match and confirms the mentality of the champion.
Egnatia did not have it easy against Skënderbeu, but this is precisely where the value of this victory lies. Korçars had the ideal opportunity to take the lead, but Bismark missed from the penalty spot. Just a few minutes later, Albanese did not forgive and gave Egnatia the lead. Skënderbeu reacted, won another penalty and Nassr equalized.
When the game requires patience
The second half brought more tension, but also an Egnatia that did not give up on the search for victory. The champions pushed, tried and found the moment through the Moroccan Loukili, who penetrated the defense using the assist of Albanese. The Korçars protested for an irregular position, but after the VAR check the goal remained in force.
Nine points, but above all a message
2-1 and Egnatia achieves three victories in three weeks. Nine points, the only leader and a team that seems to have taken with it the mentality of last season. This is perhaps what distinguishes a champion: not to win only when they play well, but to find a way to win even when the opponent puts them in difficulty.
Egnatia is not just defending the title. It is setting the standard from the first weeks: three matches, three wins and a clear message to its rivals — the champion is still here.
