El Kaabi Confirms AFCON Readiness with Brace as Olympiacos Beat OFI Crete (3-0) to Lead Greek League

Moroccan international Ayoub El Kaabi continued his strong attacking performances in the Greek league, leading his team Olympiacos to a new 3-0 victory over visitors OFI Crete in the 13th round of the league.

El Kaabi scored a notable brace in the 33rd and 40th minutes of the first half, increasing his goal tally to 12 this season. This also marks his seventh goal in the last six matches, reaffirming his readiness for the Africa Cup of Nations.

The Moroccan striker received the second-highest rating in the match with 8.5 points according to "SofaScore" before being substituted in the 67th minute, likely to protect him from any potential injury. This comes as the team prepares for a crucial encounter against Kazakhstan's Kairat Almaty next Tuesday in the sixth round of the UEFA Champions League.

Strefezza completed the trio with a third goal in the 63rd minute, solidifying Olympiacos's lead in the Greek League with 34 points. Meanwhile, El Kaabi continues to top the goal-scorer charts with 12 goals and two assists in 13 starts.
