3 clubs win to stay undefeated on top of Greek league

ATHENS, Greece (AP) - AEK, Panionios, and Platanias enjoyed wins to share the provisional lead of the Greek league on Saturday.

At Xanthi, Panionios scored twice in the first 16 minutes and cruised to an easy victory.

AEK also had an easy time at Veria, scoring early and late and hitting the posts twice.

Platanias, at home, went up 3-0 in the first half hour, but had to withstand a furious rally by Levadiakos, including a 77th-minute shot at the post that could have tied the game, to eke out a 3-2 victory.

On Sunday, defending champion Olympiakos travels to Iraklis, Panathinaikos hosts Giannena, Kerkyra plays Larissa, and Panetolikos plays at Atromitos. Asteras will host PAOK on Monday.
