OLYMPIAKOS WIN AT THE DOUBLE

BRAZIL legend Rivaldo hit a double as Olympiakos Piraeus came from behind to beat Xanthi 2-1 on the opening day of the new season

Xanthi stunned the champions with a neatly taken goal by Giorgos Barkoglou after five minutes.

But Olympiakos, chasing a 10th league title in 11 years, grabbed a leveller in 67 minutes when Rivaldo curled a superb free-kick over the defensive wall.

French defender Didier Domi had his debut for Olympiakos ruined when he was sent off in 83 minutes for a second yellow card.

But that failed to stop his team-mates pressing for a winner and Rivaldo clinched the points with a blistering long-range effort four minutes before the end.

AEK Athens, who face Hearts in the second leg of their Champions League tie on Wednesday, were held to a 0-0 draw by PAOK Salonika.
