Olympiacos - owned by Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis - have exited the Champions League early after suffering an embarrassing 4-0 home defeat to Maccabi Haifa.
The perennial Greek champions drew the first leg 1-1 in Israel after Forest promotion hero Philip Zinckernagel's early opener was cancelled out in the 92nd minute by Dolev Haziza. But, in returning to the infamous Karaiskakis Stadium all square, Olympiacos appeared as favourites to advance through the second qualifying round tie.
That script went out of the window inside five minutes as former Queens Park Rangers striker Tjarron Chery opened the scoring. A one-goal advantage persisted until the hour mark, despite one former Reds player Andreas Bouchalakis being replaced by another in Joao Carvalho at half-time, when Frantzdy Pierrot scored a four-minute brace to effectively end the tie. Mohammed Abu Fani added a fourth three minutes from time.
