Nigeria striker, Brown Ideye scored a late winner to earn Olympiakos a 1-0 victory over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Tuesday.
The former West Brom man seem to be rediscovering his best form after netting for the third successive game for the Thrylos.
Ideye made the most of a cross from Dimitris Siovas, racing down the left with no support before surging past two defenders and goalkeeper Eduardo to score in the 79th minute.
It secured a second consecutive away win for the Greek champions in Group F after beating Arsenal last time.
The 27-year-old Brown also atoned for squandering an earlier chance, missing an open goal after sliding to meet a cross from Felipe Pardo.
Ideye is yet to be considered by Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, in his first four games in charge - but could be in line for a recall after his one-time strike partner Emmanuel Emenike retired.
