After the match, the owner of the Greek club, Dimitris Giannakopoulos, took to social media to comment on the refereeing. After posting a series of plays from the game, he stated:

No matter how many Arabs and their petrodollars you bring to the league, with this level of referees, no serious company will ever invest and put their name next to such a circus,” Giannakopoulos wrote on Instagram.
