Post-match press conference held my Pedro Martins:
What did Olympiacos lack and thus failed to take something out of the match: “In great part of the match, we were tactically good, Sa was amazing against such a top side, yet we do have the quality in attack for more. Bayern closed all spaces for us to attack and we couldn’t do something more; so, it was our opponent’s quality, yet we could have done better”.
Was that a decent performance for Olympiacos: “In the attack, we could have done better; we faced a really strong side that led us to make mistakes. Bayern has a new coach and their concentration levels were quite. We prep ourselves every week to get the best possible result out of every fixture; it was their quality that didn’t allow us to achieve that tonight. We worked hard on tactical details but they are top class and held us back. We now have to focus on our next fixture against Atromitos which is a very important one. We are proud of our players’ efforts who always give their best”.
Words by José Sá at Cosmote TV:
“Truth is that we kicked off with an aim of getting more out of this match; we struggled for that but our opponent didn’t allow us to play the way we wanted. Sadly, despite our efforts, we were unable to do so”.
Has someone from Bayern commented on your impressive performance: “No, nobody told me a thing”.
On the future of this campaign: “We will wait for all fixtures to be played, we shall fight in all matches and then we will take stock of our campaign”.
Words by Ruben Semedo at Cosmote TV:
“We faced a truly great team of immense quality. However, we also know that we can do better than that and we shall prove that in our next fixture.
It is not just Lewandowski; the entire Bayern squad oozes quality. They have the individual players who can make the difference.
We stood up to expectations, we performed well and we paid the cost of failing in some details.
Things are now tough; yet, we can play better and we hope to earn points in our next match».
