VOLOS, Greece (Interstat) — AEK Athens and host Volos NFC played to a 2-2 draw in a contentious Super League 1 match Sunday at Panthessaliko Stadio.

Maximiliano Comba put AEK ahead in the 14th minute, but Volos substitute Barnabás Varga equalized before halftime. The game appeared destined for a home victory until AEK substitute Filipe Relvas scored a dramatic equalizer in the eighth minute of second-half stoppage time.

The frantic finish capped a match marred by nine yellow cards. The result leaves AEK Athens, a title contender, with 16 wins, 2 losses and 5 draws in league play. Volos NFC stands at 8 wins, 12 losses and 6 draws. The draw defied pregame projections that heavily favored an AEK victory.
