Finally, new recruit Brown Ideye has opened his goalscoring account for Greek champions Olympiakos and it came in the Super League clash against PAOK on Sunday, a game that should rank as The Reds biggest game in the top flight so far this season.

After spending 399 minutes on the pitch across all competitions without finding the back of the net, the Nigeria international netted his maiden goal for Olympiakos in the 26th minute as the defending champions beat PAOK 2 - 0 at the Stadio Toumbas .
With most of the pre - match talk centering around his fitness for the game, Ideye was delighted to get off the mark in front of passionate supporters of Greek football.

“It was a very interesting game and would love to go to the stadium of PAOK and play.  The last time I played in such an atmosphere was in England and was very nice,” Brown Ideye was quoted as saying by Nova.

“As you saw it was a very important victory for my team and I think this result will open the door to more opportunities for great things in the future.”

Of a possible six matches, Olympiakos have won five that Brown Ideye has started since his arrival from English club West Brom, with their only loss coming against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
