Defending champion Olympiakos scored twice (2 – 0) in the first nine minutes (video), then missed several chances for a wider victory against Larissa in the Greek league on Saturday.
Thanassis Androutsos opened the scoring just 14 seconds into the game with a close-range shot off a cross from Seba.
Eight minutes later, Tarik Elyounoussi failed to score from even closer, but Brown Ideye got the rebound for his league-leading 13th goal.
Bad luck caught up with Ideye in the 66th when he was forced to leave the game with a shoulder injury.
