USA internationals Freddy Adu and Eddie Johnson have combined to help Greek club Aris Thessaloniki defeat Olympiakos in league play-offs for next season's Euro competitions.

Johnson scored both goals in the 2-0 win, the first match of the six-round play-offs, which will see the winner book a place in the third qualifying round of the Champions League. The other three will play in the Europa League.

Johnson, on loan from Fulham, struck in the 39th minute with a header from an Adu cross - who is on loan from Benfica.

Johnson grabbed his second when he pounced on a defensive error seconds before the final whistle.
