El-Arabi extends impressive Olympiacos goals record in Europe

El-Arabi extends impressive Olympiacos goals record in Europe

The Morocco international’s fine record for the Legends in European club competitions continued thanks to his strike against Wolverhampton Wanderers

Youssef El-Arabi has hardly struggled for goals in Olympiacos’ European campaign in recent times.

The 33-year-old found the net as the Greek outfit played out a 1-1 draw with Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers in Thursday’s Europa League last-16 first leg clash.

After a goalless first half, Guilherme jinked into the right side of the box before squaring the Moroccan to tap in from close range in the 54th minute.

With that, he now boasts of four goals in his last five appearances for Pedro Martins’ team in Europe (4 goals – Europa League and Champions League combined).

Also, the strike was El-Arabi’s 19th of the season, with 17 of them coming from 25 outings in the Greek Super League.

However, the English team left Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium without defeat after Andreas Bouchalakis deflected Pedro Neto’s free-kick past Jose Sa.

The ex-Granada man was substituted for Konstantinos Fortounis in the 73rd minute as Olympiacos walk a tight rope ahead of the return leg billed for March 19.

They must avoid defeat against Nuno Espirito Santos’ men at the Molineux Stadium to stand a chance of qualifying for the quarter-final.

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...
