After Turkey’s invasion of Thessaly was checked in the east at Nezeros, Crown Prince Constantine of Greece received reinforcements at Larissa and advanced on Edhem Pasha at Vigla, near the Maluna Pass. The Greek infantry secured outer Turkish entrenchments following heavy artillery bombardment, but there was no final assault and the forces met again near Mati.
