Vlachos: “With better management, we can do better in the future”

Thodoris Vlachos emphasized that the men’s national polo team wanted a position as high as possible in the final ranking of the Split European Championship, he focused on the young players who strengthened the representative group in the event and how much the draw in the premiere against the “tricolors” ultimately affected them .

Analytically: “First of all, I want to congratulate the Women’s National Team for winning the silver medal. They are a young team and this will push them to achieve even more in the future. So, many congratulations to the girls, but also to the coach and her partners.

As for us, after failing to make the top four, we definitely wanted to finish as high as we could. We managed to stay in the top five, among the top teams. Our reaction was good and correct and it shows that we can, with a better management, reach higher in the next event. We’ll take stock over the next few days, but what I will say now is that this team was introduced with five new players in this competition, compared to the World Cup a month and a half ago and it showed character.

In the details we could not achieve anything better. In the decisive match against Spain, she was better and that prevented us from being higher. In relation to the match against France, this game was completely different from that of the premiere. That draw then cost us. We have next big events next season, the first of which is the Fukuoka World Championship, where two “tickets” to Paris are decided and that will be our target, because I think we can do it.

This team has prospects to do many and great things in the future. However, we leave with a “bittersweet” taste from Split”.
