Grab yourself a late deal >Cyprus Villas: APOEL Nicosia make history
Football fans have the chance to see some of the best football teams in Europe in action when they are occupying villas in Cyprus.
That is because APOEL Nicosia have been successful in qualifying into the last-16 of the prestigious Champions League tournament.
Not only does the achievement mean that the club has made it to the knockout stages of the competition for the first time, but also represents the first time that any Cypriot club have travelled so far in the contest.
A hard-fought goalless draw away to Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg was enough to send APOEL Nicosia through with one game to spare.
The club's fans have already celebrated beating FC Porto and Zenit St Petersburg at home, while also securing an impressive draw against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Summing up the momentous achievement, APOEL Nicosia's coach Ivan Jovanovic commented: "I am the happiest man in the world right now. It's a fantastic result for us. We have achieved something which three months ago we had no right to even dream of."
