Viktoria Plze? took the lead through Milan Havel in the 31st minute. Shortly after, the hosts struggled under pressure, allowing the visitors to break through again, with Mat?j Vydra netting a second goal to extend Plze?'s lead.

PAOK, who ended the first half disappointed, returned stronger after the break, with Tarik Tissoudali scoring a late goal in the 84th minute.

In additional time, amidst a thrilling end-to-end encounter before the home fans, Baba Rahman delivered a dramatic equaliser, heading the ball home to secure a point for PAOK.

“Disappointed we couldn’t get the win, but we’ll keep fighting for this club. You really are the best fans in the world,” he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.
