Mayday over Kefalonia

Nordic 5905 (An MD 82?)declared an emergency over LGKF at 16:30 GMT yesterday 19th Sept. This followed a very early 'go around' to Runway 32 and a similar approach to 14. They declared a Mayday and asked for an immediate routing to Athens due to low fuel. The flight was heading westerly at this time and took 5-10 mins to turn towards the Greek mainland. I got the impression they were eventually routed to Preveza. A TUI flight got into LGKF on 32 about 15 mins before the Nordic approach. Anyone have further info? Was Nordic 5905 originally destined for Kefalonia?
