Panathinaikos disciplinary appeal for Cyril Deser

Overview

Panathinaikos appealed a three-match suspension issued to Nigerian striker Cyril Deser following a direct red card during a match against PAOK. The club argued that the incident involving player Michailidis was a momentary push to assist Deser’s positioning rather than an act of violence. The defense emphasized that the official match report categorized the action as ‘violent conduct’ instead of ‘assault.’

The Appeals Committee subsequently reduced the ban from three matches to a single match. Deser is expected to miss the rescheduled Super League match against Kifisia but will be available for selection starting with the match against Panetolikos.
