The Best Goal award of the 27th matchday was awarded to Dimitris Salpingidis playing for PAOK, who topped the competition organised by Super League, the Panhellenic Association of Professional Players (PSAP) and NOVA. The award was presented by Mr Yorgos Firos. After the ceremony, the PAOK player stated: As regards Stevens: "The team is above everyone. People come and go, but PAOK is there and this is what we should all have on our mind. We have to be united during the good as well as the bad moments. Our goal is to amass points, to get to the final and to finish in the second place." As regards the work of the former coach: "It is not my job to go judging coaches. My job is to give my 100 percent for the team." As regards the relationship he and his teammates had with Stevens: "Overanalysing the release of a coach will only lead to problems. I have talked about Mr Stevens' worth; it is not fair to be judging him now. I do not wish to talk about issues that cause harm to the team. We are not influenced by everything that is written and rumoured. We put everything aside and our only concern is for PAOK to win and to celebrate the victories." On whether the match against Olympiacos can be a fresh start: "It should be a fresh start no matter which club we play against, since our last match was coached by Stevens. This match is special since we are playing against the club holding the first place in the classification list, and at the same time we do not want Olympiacos to win the championship in Toumba." On whether Olympiacos will be focused on the match against Manchester United: "I believe that such matches are not indifferent to any club. Olympiacos will come to win. We have the advantage of playing on our home soil and I believe that we will end up winning the match." On the annoyance expressed by the fans: "We want for PAOK to win. The fans are certainly disappointed, but this does not mean that we do not want to win. We are also upset when we lose. This is why we want to have good displays and win the matches."
