Leonardo Jardim comments

Read the comments by Olympiacos’ Portuguese-originated head coach in the post-match press conference against Schalke.

What did Olympiacos miss tonight to leave the pitch with a positive result? Do you consider the final result unfair for your side?

In football, whatever the score, it is always fair. Today, with respect to strategy and our attitude, we are pretty satisfied with. We were not good in the 2nd half, Schalke entered the pitch with more firmness and created scoring opportnities. We lost wontrol for 20 minutes. We improved after that and the moment we got better, we let the goal i. Then, we tried to rturn the match over, but unfortunately we did not make it.

Could you tell what is that you take out of Olympiacos trip in Champions League? Certainly, you have qualified for Europa League, but, in general, what you are left with from Olympiacos europan adventure until now?

Unfortunately, we failed our first objective, that was to proceed in Champions League. We achieved our second goal, since we qualified for Europa League. In the fixture against Arsenal, we want to display a good performance, play somedelightful football, so that our fans enjoy it and we would finish up with nine points in the group.

Could you have risked more from the bench in order for your side to leave tonight with an away win?;

Unfortunately, we conceded the goal the moment we have changed our style of play a bit. In this tournament, when a side loses its balance in the match, it pays dearly for that. By sending Fuster and then Rafik in, we tried to become more aggressive, to score a goal, to create chances, but we conceded the goal in that proper moment .
