Here are in detail the statements of the coach of Olympiacos on the camera of Cosmote TV:
On what went wrong: “Today we made mistakes that can’t happen at this level. We had another game plan, which we didn’t follow. We entered the second half very well. However, being behind in the score, we had to take a chance. When you take a chance, you run the risk to concede the second goal. Then, the third goal happened from this team, which came from the Champions League and which was very effective, and it was over. They took advantage of our mistakes.”
On which was the plan that wasn’t followed: “We had to stop Atalanta’s counter-attacks and be more effective at many critical moments. We should have had the upper hand and seize our opportunities. We had a good reaction at the beginning of the second half, but when we conceded the second goal, things got difficult. At the right moments, we should have been better and not make mistakes”.
On the general image from both matches: “The things are what they are. We must raise our head right away and focus on the league. We’ll accept what has happened against Atalanta and we’ll analyse it. Our focus now must be on OFI”.
